Yes, he is a member of Egoexpress. But no, he isn’t Egoexpress. He is a different Jimi. After Egoexpress, he went back to school again, an undertaking he has since dismissed, despite a top grade point average, to become a musician (again). He plays the recorder, badly but enthusiastically but that is of no real account because for him, the music happens in the clubs.Since early 2007, A Different Jimi has been at the turntables - with disproportionate success - and has a residency in Hamburg’s renowned Golden Pudel Club (where he hosts the party series Fit for Jazz, Unfit For Jazz and Fuck For Jazz). Apart from this solo project, he works in collaboration with Die Sterne synthplayer Richard von der Schulenburg and the future megastar Gay Mc. And now, on the side, he and his congenial buddies have founded the label it’s. As the label’s first official act, the president of it’s (Jimi) has released his own solo-debut 12". You might think: it’s that easy, isn’t it? ut those who know A Different Jimi, know that master Jimsen never makes it easy for himself. Like a conscientious smithy, he hammers and drives until all those little pony feet are hooved and clad with the best of shoes.And if that iron isn’t at least 100% excellent, then it’s goes back into the fire. But finally three hot irons have made it on to black gold. Two of them will get you gallopping across the dancefloor: “1753 Angelo” and “I Don’t Know Why You Say". Two poppy House tracks - because House is the sound of now and exploding harmonies are Jimi’s unique way of conquering dullness with a different kind of musical euphoria. The third track “My Hang” has the beauty of a moondog composition, something that is more than hard to find these days.At long last - something really fine.
