Like combat boots splashed with color from a mirrorball, the music of DJ James Torres hits the dance floor like a tough guy who's not afraid to shake his hips. His spins bring edgy urban influence of the East Coast and marries it to the laid back groove of the shores of Northern California. He seamlessly blends the soul of R&B with the aggressive beats of HipHop, and fearless free spirit of House.

James brought the sounds of his native Newark, New Jersey, and neighboring New York City when he migrated to his new home of San Francisco.

His unique mix of new and old school tracks infused with sexy house music keeps crowds jumping at the world renown EndUp each week. His first break came when a legendary San Francisco bar, Chaps II, reopened their doors for their Sunday beer bust. From there he was invited to spin as a guest DJ for Wunderland, Industry & Sanctuary SF.

James regularly does many of the major events that occur each year in San Francisco such as, Pride, Dore Alley & Folsom Street Fair & he has expanded to LA SD ATLANTA & FORT LAUDERDALE, FL

The passion to find, promote, and produce music that elevates the soul continually inspires him everyday.
