Jamie Anderson is a prolific artist within the dance music community. His background stems from his early beginnings as a jazz keyboardist in Bristol, where he learned his skills for the future. His love for collecting keyboards soon brought forth his own interpretations on dance music incorporating sounds of Detroit techno, Chicago acid house as well as latin flavours. In 1997 Jamie released his debut solo effort on his own label Artform, and by 2001 he signed up with NRK to release his own album of material, while ... building a DJ and remixing career. Today he’s still challenging his sound and his debut here on Dutch label Extrema with 'Arion' shows yet another side of this talented producer.
