Jamie Lidell. "Multiply." Multiply, Warp Records, 2005.
Another gloomy morning here in LA and this song came on the radio on my way to work to brighten the day.
(Shoutout to the guys over at KCRW's Morning Becomes Eclectic -- you can check out Lidell's performance on their radio show from back in the day below).
I had a chance to see Lidell perform live at the Cabaret Juste pour rire when I lived in Montréal back in 2010 (also found a video from that show, check it out below). So much energy and talent. And fun.
Okay, one last video (I promise) of "Multiply" featuring Feist, Mocky, and legendary music professor Chilly Gonzales, teaching music theory to his students and friends in "Master Class."

British producer Jamie Lidell is a chameleon, sliding into neo-soul songs as easily as he slices through spacey folk-blues. He'll share his talents with Morning Becomes Eclectic listeners. Watch/Listen to the full session here: http://www.kcrw.com/music/programs/mb/mb100929jamie_lidell
