ATP The Fans Strike Back Preview 4 - Edan

Listened to Edan's Beauty and the Beat album last night and really loved it so figured I'd bump him up the previews-to-do-list. I know nothing about him. His Bio at his website makes for pretty funny reading:
EDAN LIKE MUSIC.
EDAN BORN IN LATE SEVENTIES.
EDAN HAVE LOVING PARENTS WHO SUPPORT HIM & RAISE HIM GOOD. NO SMOKING. NO FIGHTING. JUNK FOOD SOMETIMES.
EDAN HAVE NO BROTHERS AND NO SISTERS.
EDAN LOOK AT HIMSELF IN MIRROR & DO DANCE & MAKE FACE.
EDAN HEAR BEATLE MUSIC & DOO-WOP ROCKING ROBIN.
EDAN PLAY PIANO.
PIANO TEACHER SAYS EDAN NOT GOOD AT PIANO.
EDAN SAY FUCK YOU SHUTUP.
...
EDAN WORKING NEW ALBUM.
EDAN NEED BIO FOR PEOPLE READ.
EDAN DO IT HIMSELF.
(and after reading that I thought it would be pretty cool if he was on Twitter, but he doesn't appear to be...)
Here's a video of him on the turntables and rapping at the same time:



Not a Radiohead fan but here's Edan on some Radiohead remix/mash-up - not sure what the story is on this but thought it was pretty cool - a remix of "National Anthem" apparently -



And here's my favourite track off Beauty and The Beat (off one listen)



So he's just doing a DJ set, but it should still be worth seeing. Looking Good.
Preview 3 - Sleep is here.
Preview 2 - Beirut is here.
Preview 1 - Pink Moutaintops is here.
