Jamie Lidell, techno's own soulman, has made a name for himself cooking up elaborate beats on his homemade software. His dynamic one-man improvised live shows have been a must-see since 2006. But now Lidell 2.0 makes his triumphant return to the Interface, armed with a full band to put a twist on his feel-good tunes. The smooth crooner let loose three new songs from 'Jim' and took us back with a live-band rendition of his melancholy number 'Game of Fools.'

"It's more fat-free, it's more vitamin-enriched, it's full of sonic goodness, and it can contribute to weight loss," Lidell tells Spinner about the theme of his latest album, 'Jim.' Lidell gives his all and even takes a dive during 'Another Day' for the sake of entertainment. He also made it clear that he is now at peace with James Blunt for stealing his album art. Watch the beat-boxin' bloke from Berlin do his thing on the Interface.
