Detroit, MI, USA (1998 – present)

Jimmy Edgar (b. 1983, Detroit, MI, USA), is a producer, photographer and multi-instrumentalist. He is seen by some as a poster child of sound culture and began performing music in 1998 (at fifteen years old).

He dropped studies in fashion and design to concentrate on making music, has a background in art production and style. He snatches influences from Detroit: its decay, its fashion and its eclectic music scene. Edgar has been stitching beats since he was ten, when he produced sounds electronically and fashioned his first analogue pieces. He was influenced mostly by jazz, funk, street beat and R&B in his early years. Edgar began his career by playing the drums in experimental bands and by making tape recordings.

    IDM? Just because he's been on Warp doesn't mean there's anything IDM in his music... or in a lot of others in Warp's recent roster, for that matter.
