  Jamie Lidell

  Jamie Lidell bounds into the kitchen at Warp Records, wearing white shoes and singing as he switches on the kettle. The 32-year-old producer, multi-instrumentalist, b-boxer and singer is in cheery form after an energising gig at London's Royal Festival Hall. “The idea was for me to be dressed as a fisherman,” he says. “But I'm not sure if it came across.” The costume philosophy (he previously performed in a plastic suit covered in money) is typically Lidell - off-the-wall, art-angled and at least 10 degrees left of his peers.

  There's good reason for his bounciness: his new album, Multiply (released on Warp), is an energetic hybrid of southern soul and electronica with the occasional analogue boost. The first single, When I Come Back Around, flagged up Multiply as one to watch, and has become a bona fide club hit. It contains all the elements that make the new album such an enjoyable listen: Lidell’s letting loose on the microphone underscored by monster b-lines and mash-up sonics.
