So this has been sold as being for “fans of the three Js” – James Blake, Jamie xx and Jamie Woon. Needless to say, I was immediately interested. But which J does this mysterious London producer sound most like? At first, I was inclined to say Woon, the soulful vocals carried by a bassy melodic tune. As the song progressed, though, my view switched to Blake, with the interference and spacing bringing him to mind. By the end, I thought Jamie xx, as deep bass cut in and the drum pattern started to sound more and more garage-esque.

Geno Lenardo (Filter) filled in until August 2005, when Dean Bernardini (brother-in-law to the Loefflers) became the new bass player of Chevelle.

In his own words: “ My personal journey as a songwriter is make an equation that uses everything I've heard and loved. A musical world that links Bizet to Burt Bacharach to Philip Tabane to Lionel Bart to Steve Reich to The Soul Brothers to the Beatles to Joni Mitchell.
