In an era of disingenuous expression, it is refreshing to find an artist whose passion is driven by one thing above all else - the music. Toronto based Jamie Kidd is a multi-instrumentalist turned electronic producer and dj. His tastes for the unknown and skills as a musician inspire him to take the spirit of live music and improvisation into every performance.

As a funk, jazz and rock bassist, Jamie has recorded and toured with numerous live groups throughout Canada and the US. Infinitely motivated from that musician's perspective, Kidd believes all original music should be created and performed by the artist, rather than dependent on previously recorded samples. Since 2005, Jamie has produced several singles and remixes for labels including Toronto's Thoughtless Music, California based Monism, and Halifax's Stratagem. In 2006, Kidd joined Frederik Hatsav to form Metalogic. Their collaborations have accumulated in edgy, dynamic and highly rhythmic electronic music, releasing for such labels as New York's Addon, Brooklyn's Hidden Agenda, London's Perc Trax, and Berlin's Nachtstrom Schallplatten. The duo's ‘Boxed and Warped', ‘Surge Stimulator', and 'Cabin Pressure' EP's were fiercely supported by artists including Perc, Extrawelt, Cari Lekebusch, Tony Rohr, Len Faki, Phil Kieran, Alex Bau, Xpansul, Frankie Bones, and John Selway.

In one of the most vibrant underground scenes in North America, Jamie has quickly distinguished himself among the city's finest techno, tech.house, and minimal dj's. Since its inception, he has been the resident dj for Toronto techno titans Platform, performing alongside some of the world's most respected artists including Jeff Mills, Speedy J, Trentemoller, Adam Beyer, Joel Mull, Tiefschwarz, Radio Slave, Matthew Dear, Rob Hood, Paul Ritch, James Holden, Timo Maas, Chris Liebing, Nick Curly and many more.

A fetish for bass heavy, pulsating sub textures, dubbed-out effects, and long teasing blends, Jamie Kidd hijacks your mind on an impulsive journey in and out of deep unauthorized darkness, and manic but pleasurable innocence.
