Mixing gritty minimal Detroit house, soulful edits and old skool NYC sounds onto one E.P. is the norm for Le Systeme releases, so what a better way to follow up the 2006 EP “Night Tracks.Even though it might seem like there’s not been much going on, James has been busy as usual these past few years. Playing with Glenn Branca (99 Records), recording and touring with Aaktica (Darla Records, USA) as well as playing Trumpet on a new track by NY Nu Disco heads DRRTYHAZE (Tirk, Gomma). He also appeared playing trumpet on Morgan Geist’s wonderful CD “Double Night Time", again on Environ Records from 2008. Other upcoming projects include another trumpet spot on new tracks by Ulyssess (Bear Funk, Neurotic Drum Band, NYC) and more solo 12″ releases.James’ past work includes solo releases and remixes on his own Le Systeme Records, Real Soon Records out of London, Traxx Records run by the legendary Dancetracks in NYC and Chair Recordings from Toronto. His releases have been charted and supported by the likes of Benji B, Pal Joey, Morgan Geist, Larry Heard, The Unabombers, Motor City Drum Ensemble and many more. As a musician, he has appeared on recordings by Metro Area, Morgan Geist, The Rapture, Kelley Polar and DJ Romain, just to name a few. Both of James’ Le Systeme releases have been Records of the Week at Piccadilly and “Night Tracks” was Record of the Week at Sounds of the Universe in London.
