He has remixed Wet, Anna of the North, Rostam, Active Child, and Lower Dens, as well as other artists.[3][12]
Career
[edit]2011-2016: Early years, Tell Me I Belong
[edit]Born James Harmon Stack, Jim-E Stack grew up in San Francisco's Inner Richmond,[1] where his passion for music evolved from playing in garage rock bands and jazz bands to making beats inspired by Daft Punk, Burial, J Dilla, Timbaland, and The Neptunes.[13] While Jim-E lived in New Orleans and Brooklyn, his original releases and EPs, in addition to remixes for Sky Ferreira and ASAP Rocky,[12] garnered critical acclaim and interest. It would lead to his debut 2014 album, Tell Me I Belong,[14] accompanied by touring with Shlohmo and Bonobo.[12]
2016–present: Collaborations, EPHEMERA
[edit]Returning to California in 2016, Stack continued to release new solo material,[3] including collaborations with fellow electronic artist The Range,[15] as well as solo releases featuring Noonie Bao, Rostam, Charli XCX, and more.[3] Between then and early 2019, he collaborated with Empress Of, Diplo, and Caroline Polachek for their own music, in addition to contributing on songs for Haim.
Stack contributed heavily to his then-partner Kacy Hill's second studio album Is It Selfish If We Talk About Me Again, released July 2020.[16] Hill states Stack acted as inspiration for much of the album's lyrical content in the liner notes of the record.[17]
From late 2019 through 2020, Stack released new singles featuring Ant Clemons,[18] Empress Of,[11] Dijon and Bon Iver,[19] along with an announcement for a new album titled EPHEMERA. It features the aforementioned singles, with other collaborations with Octavian, Bearface of Brockhampton and Kacy Hill.[20] Stack also released a CD exclusive EP in October 2021, sold for free only at one store in New York and London.[21]
Stack was again a primary collaborator in the creation of Kacy Hill's Simple, Sweet, and Smiling album, which released October 2021.[22]
in 2023, Stack served as a principal producer, songwriter, and instrumentalist with Dominic Fike, collaborating on his album Sunburn.
