Propelling him quickly to the forefront of the American underground, Declan James’ productions are known for their experimental, genre-bending qualities, integrating a wide variety of influences which range from Electroclash to Dancehall into a pummeling techno sound that Resident Advisor has called “futuristic and transfixing” all at once, earning him consistent DJ support from I Hate Models, Dax J, and Slam, among others.

Declan’s sets are notorious for their blistering speed and no-holds-barred approach to track selection, pushing audiences into an absolute frenzy at every turn.

With the recent launch of VOIDWARE, a record label and recurring party based in his hometown of Dallas, alongside both domestic and international touring schedules, Declan is proving to play important role in the next generation of American Techno producers.

Global Vibe Radio 351 feat. Declan James

Transmutation

Global techno & house community empowering the culture of work & rave
Est. 2008 Los Angeles

Music has been a part of me for as long as I can remember. Before I could even play, I was drawn to instruments, tinkering with them just to see what they could do. After years of begging, I finally got my first electric guitar at 15, and from that moment on, I was hooked. I joined a band, but after one show, the leader kicked me out when a local DJ showed more interest in me than the rest of the group. They never played again.

Determined to stay connected to music, I left high school early, earned my GED in 11th grade, and took a job as an orchestral repairman at Brook Mays Music in Dallas. At 18, I was surrounded by instruments daily, learning the craft of repair and deepening my understanding of sound. I later studied music theory at Collin College in Plano, Texas, refining my skills even further.

Life got busy, and for a while, I put my craft down to focus on family. But as my kids grew and needed less supervision, I found my way back to music. These days, you can find me playing again, rediscovering my passion. When I’m not making music, I’m often running a buddy’s food truck at festivals around Colorado and Utah, soaking in the creative energy of live performances.

I’m currently living in Evergreen, Colorado, where I continue to reconnect with the music that has always been a part of me.
