Many incarnations preceded GI James. DJing became a part of life growing up on a diet of hardcore and acid house. Forays into the world of drum & bass in her late teens became a pivotal time for exploration of tempo, energy and ambience. Meanwhile, adventures in tropical locations informed a new appreciation of colour, style and mood.

After journeying into techno and house, warehouses and festivals, some of Sophie's first sets were performed at Dimensions Festival, Secret Garden Party and FOUND with guest mixes featured on Rinse FM and Secret Garden’s Secret FM, and gigs from Elle and H&M to beaches in SE Asia.

Blending ambient samples with techno, exotic house and world inspired sounds, GI James is an intrepid explorer of anything tribal and transcendental, with reggae, hip hop and funk curveballs en route.
