Over the last 15 years, Jamie Lidell has cemented his reputation as an artist refusing easy categorisation--and that restless spirit follows the British poly-genre wizard into Building a Beginning, his sixth studio album and follow-up to 2013's wild-eyed self-titled effort. Whereas Jamie Lidell was a full-body immersion into strident electro and pop sounds, Building a Beginning is Lidell purifying himself in the waters of smooth, earthy psychedelic soul--think the subtle low end on Marvin Gaye's What's Going On, the swirling loveliness of Temptations' Cloud Nine, and the beatific radiance of Stevie Wonder, all imbued with Lidell's distinctive songwriting touch and impossibly gorgeous vocals.
