AUDITORIUM SAN DOMENICO - FOLIGNO - ITALY

The most important meeting of James Singleton's career happened in 2001, when after the school prom he went to a club to listen to his favourite DJ. James was a musician and brought along a self made demo to give to his mentor; he approached the console, and while handing over his work, he proposed they go out shopping for records together. Peanut Butter Wolf, patron of Stone Throw Records and obsessive vinyl collector, could not resist saying yes. Thus began the fellowship between James Pants, crazy white boy from Spokane, and Stones Throw Records. A meeting that soon becomes what looks like the classic dream come true. In a very short time, the owner of Stones Throw gave Pants his attention, and after an internship he is signed to the label by the esteemed 'godfather'. James Pants's secret is out: his multi-faceted persona makes him a pedigree character in the rhythmic music circuit. An explosion of colours and styles: from mutant disco to new wave, from early vintage rap to electro-boogie, all the way to eighties modern soul.
