Muddlin Gear

Jamie Lidell

A jagged collision of soul sensibilities and digital decay. Glitchy, mechanical, and deeply restless, it sounds like a funk record being shredded by a computer.

Find on Amazon

It's like a soul singer got trapped inside a broken mainframe and decided to jam.

A restless, twitchy exploration of soul music through a broken digital lens.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The way the vocal on 'Said Dram Scam' fights through a thicket of digital distortion and rhythmic stutters.
The ten-minute descent of 'Daddy No Lie' where the structure dissolves into a haunting, ambient void.
The sudden, jarring transition from the miniature 'The Entroscooper' into the jagged funk of the second track.
