James Nguyen's Posterous

Los Angeles, CA

Music's always been a passion of mine. No, I lie. As a child, music was forced upon me in the form of an overzealous Asian mother and the stereotypical forced piano and violin lessons. While my first introductions to music weren't willing over time I certainly came to appreciate those doors being opened to me.

Having long wanted to learn how, in late 2005 or so I broke down, bought a used pair of Technics 1200s, a collection of records, and forced myself to learn the ins and outs of djing.

Since then I've been extremely lucky to have had the chance to spin at places all around Southern CA from the diviest of dive bars to Hollywood megaclubs. I've met people from all walks of life, including the many, many, many super talented DJs that call Los Angeles and the surrounding area home.

I'll be (trying to) posting mixes here, so I hope you guys enjoy!
