An in-demand DJ who has performed everywhere from Miami, Tokyo, Goa, and Europe to Central and South America, London-based, internationally renowned producer and tastemaker
James Grant is known as much for his work with the popular electronic music label Anjunadeep as he is for his deep, melodic house beats. Along with
Jaytech and
Jody Wisternoff, he has mixed most of the annual
Anjunadeep compilations, with the 12th volume appearing in 2021, and he's released co-productions and remixes with both artists.
James Grant is the brother of
Jono Grant, co-founder of progressive trance giants
Above & Beyond, whom he also manages. After
Above & Beyond's
Anjunabeats became one of trance's biggest labels during the early 2000s, the duo and
James launched sublabel Anjunadeep in 2005, serving as a vehicle for releases that fell outside of the main label's largely trance-oriented oeuvre.
James has served as Anjunadeep's A&R since its inception, and since 2008, he's teamed with label regulars such as
Jaytech and
Andrew Bayer to co-produce remixes of tracks by
BT, Full Tilt,
Chicane, and others.
Jaytech and
James Grant released the single "Moth" in 2010, and co-mixed
Anjunadeep 02 through 04. Starting with
Anjunadeep 05,
Grant has split mixing duties with
Way Out West's
Jody Wisternoff, and the two have occasionally produced tracks together, such as 2019's "Dapple." ~ James Christopher Monger & Paul Simpson
