- James Alexander started his DJ career at the tender age of 14 as a stand in for his brother at the legendary UK club night "KAOS", even then he was an accomplished classical guitarist, having travelled to Andalusia in the previous year to play and learn from some of the Flamenco guitar masters.
- But it was his love for electronic music that continued throughout the 90’s, teaming up with another local DJ; James Bennett, to create the DJ partnership that was "JamesandJames". They rocked clubs around the UK for many years, including a 4 year residency at "Oslo Club", during which MTV’s "Clubland UK" placed JamesandJames's Saturday night set in the top 10 of UKs best club nights!!
- The mid 00’s saw the musical compass point directly to Berlin and James was soon to follow after being signed to Berlin DJ agency and events company "FAMOS".
- After working his way up the overcrowded Berlin minimal scene, James set up his own musical imprint in 2006 named "Friends Electric Records".
- Friends Electric stands proud in 2009 with 12 artists including major international talents such as: Dirt Crew, Benno Blome, Ronald Christoph and Steve Cole.
- James, now under the production name of "J Alexander", continues to produce, remix and write his own blend of Techno and Tech-House. His productions can be heard across the globe, supported by the biggest names from across the electronic spectrum; Derrick May, Dave Seaman, Laurent Garnier and Timo Mass, are to name but a few DJs that have supported his work and that of his label Friends Electric.
- J Alexander’s talents have taken him out of the European arena and placed him firmly onto the world stage, as a DJ he is fresh from an 8 gig tour of Shanghai; as a producer with Friends Electric, his influence extends much further with the ability of the dance loving public to hear his tracks spun all over the globe and his vinyl to be purchased in shops from Tokyo to Paris, London to Sydney.
