When it comes to music I abide by the rule of three: if three trusted sources recommend it, I’ll go out of my way to track it down and check it out.

An artist named Jamie T, and his album Panic Prevention, met the requirements when Fred posted on him earlier this summer (after the excellent Very Short List covered him earlier this year and one of the music blogs that I read featured him shortly thereafter).

He’s British, which shouldn’t surprise anyone who has been following my music tastes in the past year+, and Amazon notes that “his musical style incorporates a wide mix of genres from rock, pop, drum and bass to hip hop.” A big part of what’s appealing about Jamie is his diverse and rich sound.

I grabbed the album Saturday and have listened to it non-stop this past weekend while I did chores and errands around the house. First listen? I thought it was good. Now? I think it’s excellent. And it only continues to grow on me.

Here’s two songs that I love:

Jamie T - Operation
Jamie T - Pacemaker
