Michael James started deejaying at the tender age of 18 when he blagged his younger brother into asking for turntables for his 13th birthday.

Michael decided to go to university(UCLAN) to study business and after receiving his student loan soon changed his mind and invested the entire amount in a pair of cdjs and decided to leave uni to chase his dreams...

Michael played his first set at the age of 19 in the back room @ Fusion, Burnley which gained him an immediate residency for the local nights promoted by friends.

Over the last few years Michael has proved himself as a very diverse and capable deejay and has changed his style dramatically - starting off playing tracks described by many as "dirty" electro, which he quickly left behind for the more upfront, and sexy sounds of Minimal, tech house, and techno.
Michael has since played at places such as:

Saturdays @ AREA51, Manchester for THE ZOO PROJECT
Tribal Sessions @ Sankeys, Manchester for nights such as
THE ZOO PROJECT, Randomonium and Stable Disko
Music Box, Manchester for AudioBoutique
Wire, Leeds for The Rejekts
The Dunkenhalgh, Accrington for Loaded NYE 07/08
Viva, Ibiza for Saturdays@Viva
Boulevard, Ibiza for Mono_cult
CaveRave, Leeds
CircoLoco, Sankeys & Paradise Factory, Manchester


With impressive sets coming out of his ears Michael James has cemented residencies for Stable Disko and AudioBoutique, in the UK and whilst spending a memorable summer in Ibiza '07 gained residency at the new workers bar - Viva. Michael has since been offered a residency for THE ZOO PROJECT and will be playing every week over the season in the Abandoned Zoo, Ibiza.

In the last year Michael has put alot of time in to producing and is working hard all the time on new tracks and ideas - creating everything from hypnotic house vibes to slamming techno beats, and impressing crowds with a cheeky mix of the Pink Panther theme tune!

2008 looks really promising for Michael as part of The Zoo Project family - so come and join us for The Zoo madness in Ibiza! Show less
