1 To 1 Wednesdays Guest Mix With Alastair James

Long before he ever became a DJ, Alastair James knew trance to be as vital as the very air he breathes. It therefore comes as no surprise how quickly the San Francisco native has found his voice as a storyteller, leading the vibrant first act in an electronic music tale of his own.

The moment Alastair sets foot behind the decks, the world around him gives way to an ever-changing cadence of sound and emotion. His skills caught the attention of Niko Zografos early on, opening doors at the onset of his career. His style of uplifting and tech trance has moved crowds at destinations like Ruby Skye, 1015 Folsom and Exchange LA in addition to the worldwide listeners who tune in for his Trancesion mix series.

Although no stranger to techno, progressive house, or even drum and bass, Alastair James exhibits an unmistakable connection to trance that no fair-weather fan could hope to imitate. At times when it felt like he had nothing left, this music and the community surrounding it gave him the courage to carry on. It’s only fair, he feels, that he pays it forward by giving each member of the audience hope through whatever challenges may come their way.

The Alastair James story is one that resonates deeply with all those who have an earnest love for trance. As his journey unfolds, don’t forget to look and see where his rising star takes him next.
