JIMMY EDGAR
Exclusive Mix + Interview

There’s certain artists that capture an essence that’s wholly stimulating to a dancefloor; Jimmy Edgar is one of those artists that provides a combination of intellectual and auditory stimulation. Since the days of his releases on WARP and Merck, the now-Berlin-based producer has been pounding out his own brand of interstital and sensual grooves, attracting crowds that are hungry for next-level jaunts about the unknown realms of their strangest desires. Edgar is a master at accessing a dancefloor’s core values and cascading his sound with a confidence that’s truly his own. Currently, his single on Hotflush, “This One’s For The Children” is an retro-futuristic take on 80s electro, draped in velvet and spacesuits. Yeah, it’s that good. It’s only a teaser for his forthcoming LP on the label, entitled Majenta (out in early May). Jimmy took the time to speak to URB about how his creative process has thrived due to his move to Berlin, as well as providing us with a mix that’s a throwback response to his good buddy Machinedrum’s URB podcast. Check out the interview and mix after the jump.
