Studio Science: Jamie Lidell
Inside the unique set-up of one of electronic music’s most versatile performers
Jamie Lidell is one of the most versatile live electronic musicians around. Credit for this is down to his adventurous spirit, of course, but there’s also the matter of a special Looper set-up, custom designed by his good friend Tim Exile. In this presentation at this year’s Red Bull Music Academy Festival New York, Lidell breaks down his live set piece-by-piece and shows how it allows him enormous flexibility in improvising.
