My debut into clubland was with a residency at a brand new Birmingham gay venue - Tin Tins Club in 1990 followed by appearances at Madisons & the University in Bournemouth in 91-92. I joined Tony De Vit as one of the residents at a new house all-nighter event ‘Hype’ in 93, held at Tin Tins – which ran until it’s closure in 1997 and was one of the city’s best loved dance clubs. In 1993 I began a 25 year Saturday night residency with Birmingham’s Nightingale Club, the legendary LGBT venue now celebrating it’s 50th anniversary. Other gigs in the 90s included a residency with ‘S.L.A.G’ at the Steering Wheel Club and guest appearances at ‘Sundissential’ & ‘Funkissential’ and Digbeth’s trance superclub ‘Gods Kitchen’. I presented a music & clubbing show on cable channel ‘Live TV’ in the late 90s visiting all of the big club events in the Midlands, interviewing many of the big name DJs and dance artists of the era.
The 00’s included DJ appearances at London, Manchester and Birmingham Pride festivals and joining the original resident DJs at ‘The Breakfast Club’ all-nighter in Kudos (Chic), Birmingham. I created & promoted the successful ‘HOM – House of Music’ night on the top floor of the Nightingale Club for a 10 year run, whilst also running the venue between 2006 and 2010 – winning the prestigious BEDA Best UK Nightclub Award in 2008.
During the last decade I continued the Nightingale Club residency, winning the Midland Zone Best Club DJ readers award in 2014, along with other Birmingham residencies at The Loft & The Core Club and The Yard in Coventry, plus occasional festival appearances including Back2 in Derby, Music Live, Proud Freedom Fest Coventry & Birmingham Pride.   I'm now Saturday night resident at The Village Birmingham & occasional appearances at The Nightingale Club.

Think you can put the UK’s James Silver in a box? Think again. For a start, he knows how to twist and turn his live sets to cover multiple genres and create jaw-dropping results. 
Inspired over 25 years ago by events such as TinTins, Miss Moneypenny’s and Sundissential, James began his DJ career before taking time out to evaluate his direction. Well the boy did good; James surged back onto the scene in May 2014 with more direction and force than most aspiring & committed DJ’s!

In these few short years this likeable snapback wearing DJ has made it to the final of 2 DJ competitions, been nominated for ‘Midlands Best Club DJ’ by Zone Magazine two years running and has played more gigs up and down the UK, that most local veteran DJ’s would be envious of! 

You will find James hosting a weekly online show for AA1 radio in which he’s top of the leaderboard for most viewers.  His ability to read a crowd is second to none, but to read an online radio station crowd is a talent in itself. 

Previous residencies and general room slaying include: House Nation, Shrine, Gorgeous, The TinTins Experience, Bushwackers (Birmingham & Worcester), Crazy Daisy’s and Chic, to name just a few! 

Tracks signed to Simma Red, Cleveland City, Zulu Records, Revoke Musica and MoneyPennys Music.

Gaz White is a music producer/composer and Dj based in Caernarfon North Wales.
The style of music he producers is Uplifting/Euphoric Trance and demonstrates vibes which are intimate and emotional but also carry some brooding edge.

His first introduction to the Trance world was a mistaken stumble into an after hours bar by the name of G-Bar in his home city of Liverpool in the summer of 1999.
“ It was like a door way into heaven had just been opened in my imagination when I experienced this unique sound called Trance for the first time, I just felt this music speaks to me.”

He soon after became a regular clubber at the legendary Cream in Liverpool but it was the G-Bar after hours club that become his personal addiction.  
The Dj of that time, Jimmy Jay had a style of sound in there that captured the true intimacy of Trance. The vibes of this small bar down in the basement room brought people together which gave everyone a sense of community and belonging within there. The emotional intimate sound of Trance of that time was the magnetism that drawn people together in friendship and love of music.

After a number of months it wasn’t long before he was collecting records and turning his hand to eventually DJ’n himself. He set up a night called “Reignition” a monthly Trance night which gained a little traction in the early 2000’s. 
In this period he met his now wife Vanessa and then shortly after gained a Dj residency at a local bar in his now home town of Caernarfon North Wales playing Trance every Friday and Saturday night.

Like a lot of others from that period Gary’s influences came from artists of that time such as PVD, Above & Beyond and Ferry Corsten. However he much loved the deeper moodier tracks of the period from the likes of Pulsar and Lange and believes these particular artists have left the biggest mark on his musical taste. 

It was the mid 2000’s before he turned his attention to producing. 
He felt there was something lost in the Trance music that was present in the late 90’s and early 2000’s. The delicate intimacy, unique themes and arrangements had become lost in the current productions. Everything was becoming very formulated and lacking in character.
It was from this revelation that Gary set out to learn music theory and production in its entirety in an attempt to create the sound he so much loved and craved from back then. 

Although his sound could be considered uplifting in the Trance world, it would be very honest to say it leans on a more brooding and intimate sound within the genre. His music contains strong themed based melodies which are memorable, catchy and have a strong majestic flare to them.
His experiments in modality and chord structure throughout the music can leave listeners intrigued  to where the piece will take them next which is something welcomed within the music of Trance.

His music takes you on a Journey through sonic sound scapes and melodic structure’s that captures the listeners imagination and emotions giving you a feeling of music in motion through space and time.
