James first expressed his love of music through jamming with his schoolmates, taking his energetic and aggressive drumming style from death metal as well as being heavily influenced by happy hardcore and jungle, growing up to a background of Helter Skelter and Dreamscape mixtapes.

After hearing ‘Bandwagon Blues’ by Twisted Individual, James fell in love with the drum and bass sound and began to focus his talents on producing. Sharing his tracks with D&B radio stations led to the first recognition of his foot-thumping talents, under the alias DJ Dose he released for the first time in 2007.

In 2009 James began to dabble with producing dubstep, giving his tunes a big energy by incorporating the drum and bass layering technique into his dubstep sound. His first track ‘Make Our Day’ was quickly signed to 4:20 Records. And so began the raw sound that is FuntCase.

It wasn't long before FuntCase began trading tracks with Doctor P, and an offer soon followed to bring James into the Circus Records camp with the release of his famed track ‘So Vexed', with ‘Mattress Punch' on the flip, in 2010. 

Since then the phenomenon has grown, FuntCase has become a legend of the DJ world. With an incredibly loyal fan base Funty is known world wide for working hard, playing hard, travelling hard - and DJing hard. Claw 4 Life yo.

Rising from the deep underbelly of music comes FNGRNLS, poised and ready to deliver his inimitable blend of sounds and emotions.  Ever since his origination, this producer has pursued consistent themes revolving around the vast exploration of bass music, a passion towards forging into new territory, and revealing the power of self expression.  Whether it's intensely savage bass wobbles, atmospheric waves of melodicism, or entrancing rhythms fueled by synth stabs, it's truly eye opening the path a FNGRNLS journey weaves.

Every album released is its own self contained world, each exploring a different aspect of the FNGRNLS universe.  Just his last three releases instantly showcase this:  "Ritual Sacrifice" is chock full of dark, mutant basslines and sprawling glimpses into negative space.  "Lazarus" is a heavyweight journey detailing intense emotional revival through intricate layers of writhing techy glitches and thick basslines.  And his latest, "Out Of Body", is a surprising journey through the world of house, employing epic synths and moving rhythms that hit the body and soul with the force of a freight train. 

Expect a heady mix of this and his entire catalog whenever catching a FNGRNLS live set.  A single set can span everything from dubstep to techno, and even drum and bass inspired workouts.  Describing his work as “omni genre electronic mayhem” is the best description possible:  It highlights wide ranging diversity along with the finely tuned forms of songwriting and sound design he employs. 
 Even his label output further proves this, with releases on heavyweight labels like Street Ritual, Kill Your Ego, Causmic Creative, Inferno Collective, Ravesta Records, and Producers Social. 

With a new album in the works and plenty of shows looming on the horizon, make sure you don't sleep on FNGRNLS!
