Having been raised in a very
sheltered home and always traveling about the country, James
came to the San Francisco Bay Area in 1997 and now calls San
Francisco home. Not having been allowed to listen to the radio,
James quickly exposed himself to all genres of music from a
multitude of decades. As he educated himself, he found that his
fingers and feet would tap happily to the beats of electronic
dance music.
In 1999, James met Joe Stuart and after discovering their
similiar taste in music, the two partnered on a pair of decks
and began learning the ins and outs of mixing and beat matching.
They collaborated on several projects including the founding of
Global Soundwave Productions which grew into an international
weekly broadcast featuring mixes by deejays from around the
world. James also worked with his friend and former co-worker
Steve Curry in founding of HotTrance.COM, an online trance music
community that assists in promoting deejays worldwide such as
Alex M.O.R.P.H., Matt Darey, Graham Gold and many more. He has
performed in various venues in many cities such as Las Vegas,
Seattle, and San Francisco, spinning everything from epic,
progressive, hard and tribal trance?fast and melodious beats
that move the body and take the mind and soul on a wild
adventure.
Inspired by the likes of Orbital, BT, The Crystal Method, John
Digweed, D:fuse and many more, James has been working on
producing new tracks to inspire his fellow artists and to
contribute to the dance community. |
