Eclectic Method is the name of an audio-visual remix act, originally formed in London in 2001 by Jonny Wilson. Geoff Gamlen and Ian Edgar.  Wilson is the sole remaining member.

History 
Inspired almost entirely by Jonny's early experiences with Sony Vegas editing software, Eclectic Method's audio-visual style quickly developed into a live performance featuring video turntables (Pioneer DVJ-1000) - mixing videos, often acapellas, as integral parts of their astounding audio mashups. As a live act, they have travelled around the world playing hundreds of gigs in Asia, North America, South America, Europe and the Middle East.

After the early period in which EM's output was considered bootleg and unofficial, video remixes Eclectic Method were called upon by artists including Fatboy Slim and U2 and by film, video, and television companies such as New Line Cinema and Palm Pictures.

Eclectic Method appears as one of the featured artists on Copyright Criminals, a 2009 documentary film directed and produced by Benjamin Franzen and Kembrew McLeod examining the creative and the commercial value of sampling.

Eclectic Method (Johnny Wilson) opened the Dance Forest stage at the Virgin Mobile FreeFest in Columbia, Maryland on September 10, 2011.

2013 saw EM at Comicon representing the BBC with a Doctor Who mix, and working with Snoop Lion.
