█▒║ Release Notes ║▒█
█▒║ ║▒█
█▒║ James Zabiela / Bio (www.jameszabiela.co.uk): ║▒█
█▒║ ║▒█
█▒║ Space, the final frontier. As the smartest club in Ibiza opens its ║▒█
█▒║ doors to welcome in their shiny new resident, James Zabiela just ║▒█
█▒║ smiles and blinks a little. See, the ride here has been kinda fast. ║▒█
█▒║ And while its been a relatively bump-free trip to acceptance and ║▒█
█▒║ ubiquity, it's still blinkin' quick. Two years ago, James Zabiela ║▒█
█▒║ popped his Balearic cherry by warming up for Sasha at the place the ║▒█
█▒║ island calls Inside At Space. Wowing the crowd - and We Love boss ║▒█
█▒║ Darren Hughes - with two hours of snappy, synth-fixated, breakbeat ║▒█
█▒║ action - it was a defining moment in his DJ career. Two years later, ║▒█
█▒║ he's now the club's new bi-weekly resident. It's official. Now ║▒█
█▒║ "that's" what I call progression. ║▒█
█▒║ Knowing what a great track should sound like - and the place it can ║▒█
█▒║ be taken by warping and twisting it - is James Zabiela's forte. ║▒█
█▒║ Layering different sounds with the aid of two Pioneer CDJ1000s, a ║▒█
█▒║ Pioneer DJM600 and a pair of trusty Technics 1210s, his hands and ║▒█
█▒║ ears don't let up for a second, leaving any punters feet a-moving ║▒█
█▒║ and mouth a-gap. And his demands for such kit wherever he spins is a ║▒█
█▒║ reminder that he's one of the scant few DJs who's pushing things ║▒█
█▒║ forward in 03. James's style is trippy, bleepy and deeply - nay, ║▒█
█▒║ downright - groovy. Oh, and watch out for a few gnarly basslines ║▒█
█▒║ along the way. Those nasty, dirty sounds are a part of Jay-Z's ║▒█
█▒║ signature sound now. Scratches, loops, fluttering chord changes and ║▒█
█▒║ are all par for the course in a Zabiela set. No wonder childhood ║▒█
█▒║ idols Depeche Mode remain his heroes - like fellow tech-house don ║▒█
█▒║ Mathew Bushwacka!, they all understand that the best electronic ║▒█
█▒║ music moves both heart and feet. And if the magic's there, the ║▒█
█▒║ spirit will fly as well. And boy does this boy soar. ║▒█
█▒║ "Entertainment and education are the key," nods James sagely. "It's ║▒█
█▒║ all about finding the balance. People have paid good money to have a ║▒█
█▒║ party but you still need a balance." Which is why his FX unit is so ║▒█
█▒║ crucial to his performance. "Anyone can mix two records to a ║▒█
█▒║ degree," he grins, while still admitting to the odd bout of ║▒█
█▒║ nervousness during radio interviews, if not behind the decks. "But ║▒█
█▒║ I'm a hundred times more confident than I used to be. DJing has ║▒█
█▒║ definitely helped my confidence as a person." Watching him play, its ║▒█
█▒║ easy to forget that making things look easy takes time to perfect. ║▒█
█▒║ But then he's crossed a few bridges - and a few national boundaries ║▒█
█▒║ - along the way. "I haven't worked it all out yet," he adds. "But I ║▒█
█▒║ do wish I could grow an extra arm sometimes!" (Fact One: talking of ║▒█
█▒║ three deck wizards, on a recent hometown gig in Southampton, a ║▒█
█▒║ certain Carl Cox came down to pay some respect, if not the door tab. ║▒█
█▒║ High praise indeed...) ║▒█
█▒║ James' career so far has been stratospheric to say the least. After ║▒█
█▒║ winning Muzik Magazine's Bedroom Bedlam competition with a string of ║▒█
█▒║ well-placed mix tapes in 2000, he went on to win the award for Best ║▒█
█▒║ Bedroom Bedlam DJ at The Muzik Awards one year later. Swiftly ║▒█
█▒║ snapped up by Sasha's Excession agency a few weeks later, he spent ║▒█
█▒║ the next year taking on Eastern Europe, Australia, South America and ║▒█
█▒║ the US of A ("more fanatical than anywhere else in the world") while ║▒█
█▒║ still finding time to record well-received CDs for Groovetech, Hooj ║▒█
█▒║ and unleash a string of fine remixes along the way. Royksopp, Virgin ║▒█
█▒║ Souls and End Recordings artist Dave Breannan have all been under ║▒█
█▒║ the Zabiela scalpel - and more are on their way. (Fact Two: Sunday ║▒█
█▒║ Best boss Rob Da Bank declared Jay-Z's work on 'Remind Me' to be his ║▒█
█▒║ favourite re-rub of the year... aside from the factor five on ║▒█
█▒║ Salinas Beach that one time of course.) ║▒█
█▒║ Still only 24, still pushing the envelope and still learning to cope ║▒█
█▒║ with a real-life fanbase and life on the other side of the record ║▒█
█▒║ counter, its unlikely that James Zabiela will be taking a breather ║▒█
█▒║ anytime soon. There are further late niteries like Tribal Sessions ║▒█
█▒║ and The End to entertain and regular slots in Romania and Budapest ║▒█
█▒║ to attend to. (I get to play whatever I want," he smiles). On a ║▒█
█▒║ recent trip to Australia he played a five hour set in front of 3,000 ║▒█
█▒║ screaming punters at The Art House in Sydney. No wonder Sasha refers ║▒█
█▒║ to James as the guv'nor, This is just the beginning. ║▒█
