Jamie Lidell cozies up with Beck in the studio

Ah, Los Angeles: the only place on earth where even the mannequins are, well, buxom. The city—Beck and Jamie Lidell’s recent recording place of choice—is home to Infrared Sound Recording Co.

Engaging in direct-to-disc recordings at the studio, Pitchfork reports the tourmates are opting for equipment that put their live performances onto vinyl masters, later to be turned into singles.

Brit soul-o-meter Lidell and the unpredictable alt-rocker's sessions will be released in the indeterminable future.
