A few words for James Monro
"…..they aim is to create a space where you can come together and be transported to a place of pure, pulsating energy and euphoria. I try to achieve this with a unique and seamless mix of rude, hypnotic music - chunky, funky and larger than life. Its techno, it's house , it's all things…music is an essential soul food and this soul food is what fuels my desire to play music to people.…keeping it fun, which is essentially the name of the game. It feels so good when it's good…."
James has been dj-ing and generally involved with electronic music since the
late 80's. An avid music collector from an early age, he played his music
at small underground parties which rapidly projected him to starting his
professional dj career with a residency at Heaven in the early 90's at the
awesome Megatripolis nights, and honing his skills at the likes of Club UK,
The End, Tribal Gathering, Glastonbury, Return to the Source, Escape From
Samsara etc. and to starting up the now legendary record label "Flying Rhino
Records".
Over the last year he launched his new label"4Digitalaudio" with Grant
Collins (Excession) from which to deliver, not just his own solo productions,
but also "4D", the project he co-produces with Grant. The label has had a
phenomenal response from the highrollers in the scene, with massive support
form the likes of DubFire, D-nox, Funkagenda, Nick Warren, Dave Seaman,
Paul Oakenfold,Hybrid, Mark Knight, Anthony Pappa, Stephan Bodzin, Umek,
Hernan Cataneo, Toca Disco etc.
His love of deep, hypnotic music has found him being asked to bring his
unique approach to dance music to clubs and parties all over the world,
from Amnesia in Ibiza in the early 90's to the underground clubs of tokyo,
paris, and new york, festivals and open-air gigs in europe and the UK,
canada and the US, morocco,south africa, south america, asia, japan,
australia, new zealand, israel etc. Essentially there are very few
countries James hasn't kicked up a storm in.
James travelled to Brasil in 2002, and now bases himself there for some of
the year. He was one of the founders of "Tropical Beats", one of the first
agencies and labels bringing new artists and freshsounds from Europe to
Brasil. TB hads held residencies at the likesof D-Edge in Sao Paulo and
Home in Rio, and James has played at most of the major clubs and open air
festivalsin the country (Pacha-SP, Privilege-RJ, Anzu-Itu, Ibiza-SC,
Vegas-SP, Manga Rosa-SP, Fiction-Go, Kraft-SP, Label Club-BH,Deputamadre-BH,
XXX-Perience, Tribe, Universo Paralello, Skol Beats, Chemical Music..etc.)
Known and loved as much for his music as for the immaculate skill
and feeling with which he puts it all together, he has always blurred
the lines between techno and house, and he seamlessly delivers a funky,
deep,but powerful and emotive mix that never fails to drive any
With lots of releases in the pipeline, James is delighted to be heading
back to Brasil for the summer season and unleashing his unique blend of
sumptuous, rocking beats to the dancefloors...
