Biography of James Ruskin

Growing up in London and New Milton, Hampshire James Ruskin caught the HIp-Hop bug through the likes of the Tim Westwood radio show and the Electro Series on Street Sounds at an early age. When House started seeping into the more progressive nightclubs James started to take note of this new and infectious groove. Via the gravitational slingshot of a Motor City sonic shockwave, the sound of Techno swept him off his feet and has remained ever since.

Inspired by these new pioneering sounds James took up DJing and eventually secured club bookings. With like minded friend, Richard Polson, he relocated to London in 1994 and began building a new studio.

Conscious of developing their own sound the pair worked on material for the next two years, releasing an EP on Guilty Records as 'Void' until they were confident enough to release a four track EP that captured their own style. 'First Contact' by Outline became their first release on 'Ruskin's' label, Blueprint Records in May 1996.

With the label gaining momentum James's DJ bookings started to take off. Resident at Gecko, London with Bloodsugar's Rick Hopkins he also began taking bookings all over the UK and Europe. His DJ roster now reads like a well established CV. His DJing has been witnessed at House of God (Birmingham), Black Out (Glasgow), EuroBeat 2000 (London), Attack (Reading), U-Club (Slovakia), The Complex (London), The Liquid Rooms (Tokyo), Club Rockets (Osaka), Atomic Jam (Birmingham), Geushky (Portsmouth), Dynamic Tension @ Tresor (Berlin), Fusion (Nottingham), Ultraschall (Munich), Hurytan (Slovakia), and Amorphous (Leicester), Lakota (Bristol), a bi-monthly residency @ Tresor (Berlin), Chicago, New York, Detroit, Bugged Out (Manchester), Art Futura (Madrid), Barcelona, Voodoo (Liverpool), Budapest, Berlin Love Parade, Malta, Dublin (Kitchen) and a monthly residency with Andrew Weatherall @ Circulation (London).

With Blueprint Records gathering respect the world over, his debut album 'Further Design' released on 20th July, 1998 has propelled his status as one of the UK techno scenes leading lights. His records are being played by the likes of Jeff Mills, Dave Clarke, Suregeon, Andrew Weatherall, Claude Young, Fumiya Tanaka, Steve Bicknell and many other techno DJs. Select magazine quoted in their October 1997 edition: 'Blueprint Records. The best techno in ages. and it's British'.
