orphan – plateau

I've archived some tunes from 2014, as a retrospective over my past year.

After slightly EQ and editing them, I ran them through a stereo tube preamp as a 2-channel stem and let that smear some things together.

I am so surprised by the consistent and particular flavor of sonic fidelity found throughout these 27 songs (whittled down from 150) that I feel as if, expanded, these could make the bones of an album.

Thanks for listening.

The Sunflower Mixtape

OUT JUN24 2016

After a string of dance floor singles since 2012 including “Let Me Tell You” and “Strike”, Jimmy Edgar is back with fresh sound that is to become his signature for Ultramajic. 

  Over the period of two years, Jimmy has been building this new sound.  Where rhythm was the primary in his dance music, he has flipped focus and intensely studied melody, chords and music theory.  “Dreamz Come True” is the beginning of a new path; one that continues trajectory from his quintessential releases on Warp Records, over 10 years ago.

Opening track “4Fourth Dimension” – brings you into the #dreamzzzcometrue world, inspired by “astral choreography” and an array of house music through the lens of R&B.  The title track features vocalist Rochelle Jordan, and together they create a modern take on the “song” that sways back and forth between vibes.  “iPhone” ties them together with aggressive african rhythm and bounce that end in a room full of terrifying screams that unite everyone in fear.  “Hydrant” melts off the release with Jimmy’s low tempo equation that reminds you of artificial intelligence creating quiet storm.

BANDCAMP

4FOURTH DIMENSION [RADIO RIP]

Clocking in at 21 songs, plus two remixes from DJ Manny and Borrowed CS, LWMP18 is an astonishing investigation of the power and potential of juke and footwork music, as re-imagined through the lens of an antipodean artist looking at the world both online and from a significant geographical distance. Interlacing footwork song structures and rhythms with elements of jazz, soul, baile funk, and R&B, it’s a unique take that could only really come from the ends of the Earth.

Jimmy Edgar Announces New EP, Label Launch, Special Projects

Detroit’s Berlin-based Jimmy Edgar is on a mission to manifest dance culture on a level deeper than any bass can drop. Synthesizing his passions for esoteric philosophy and ‘90s club music, Edgar announces a new EP, label launch, and special projects with fellow multimedia mystics Machinedrum and Pilar Zeta.

An alumni of vaunted electronic labels Warp, !K7 and Hotflush, Edgar teams with longtime friend and frequent collaborator Machinedrum (Travis Stewart) to launch a new label called Ultramajic. The two have been “deep telepathic friends” since their teen years when Stewart encouraged Merck Records to sign Jimmy based on a random CDR that found its way to the label in 1999. In addition to doing A&R for the new label, Stewart’s work with Edgar includes their side project JETS, as well as film and installation pieces.

The new label’s first release is Edgar’s new EP, Hot Inside, out June 10th. Hot Inside struts with libidinous abandon and oozes supernatural essence. The title track opens Hot Inside with a filtered diva wail, cavernous beats, and warped techno grooves. “Shout” is a pulsating electro stomper, riddled with vocal loops, oscillating synths, and shuffling syncopation. “Strike” is a stripped down jacking track that soars into an infinite fade.

“These tracks were started in South America when I was at Machu Picchu and on a sort of metaphysical adventure down there during December,” Edgar explains. Keeping his body music’s sensuous aura, Edgar intensifies his dancefloor focus, inspired by his extensive remix work and DJ gigs. “I'm booked every weekend this year on almost every continent.” In 2012, Edgar did over thirty remixes, including a Portishead edit he made hours before his Boiler Room set with Hotflush’s Scuba.

Hot Inside will feature collaborative artwork with Pilar Zeta, a longtime creative partner. As part of Edgar’s complete experience concept, they are also releasing a metaphysical card deck based on the Law of One, a series of books allegedly cowritten by an extraterrestrial being. "We are very interested in the idea of ancient magick becoming a modern reality and merging it with art culture... We are invested in making these things relevant again and spiking some curiosity within young people."

Hot Inside will be released on Ultramajic on June 10th. Jimmy Edgar is available for interviews now.

Hot Inside Track List:

 Strike
 Shout

Ultramajic is a vinyl and digital imprint distributed by STH Holdings, home to Hotflush Recordings. Ultramajic is primarily focused on singles and EPs, released every 6-8 weeks in deluxe hand-crafted packaging inspired by ritual magick, meditation, and alchemy. Management for Ultramajic and Jimmy Edgar is handled by Faux Management in Los Angeles.
