including rock, reggae, hip-hop, and jazz. At an early age, James immersed himself in the study of music, mastering several instruments in childhood and eventually studying at the famed Berklee College of Music in Boston.
James extensive, advanced musical training plays a subtle, yet important role in his live sets, marked by heavy, sensual bass lines and his effortless and meticulous blends of both melodies and beats. James
Eclectic musical taste shows in his on-point track selections.
In the early 90¹s, James passion for music and the arts led him to underground parties held in and around the Washington DC area, thrown by renowned crews of the time including Buzz Life, Fever, Pure Love, & Ultraworld. These early experiences in the electronic music scene prompted James to purchase turntables, furthering his study of music and prowess as a performer.

His name is Steve. He was born in Milan, then a bunch of crazy stuff happened. Now he lives in Portland Oregon, where he crafts his own unique blend of electronic music. www.letsgooutside.com www.myspace.com/letsgooutside www.virb.com/letsgooutside free download @ www.oneweektolive.com Soma have decided to release a free single! It will be released exclusively with One Week To Live as the UK magazine prepares to go completely digital. The decision came after Soma were tiring of seeing releases on illegal mp3 websites. It will be available athttp://www.OneWeekToLive.com Who better to try out such an experiment than the debutant Let's Go Outside. Following massive response from the likes of Josh Wink, Ivan Smagghe and Andrew Weatherall for his debut release on Soma's experimental offshoot Pnuma Records, Soma believe that it's only right for Let's Go Outside to play with the big boys on this release. Let's Go Outside hails from Portland, Oregon where he first released on small local experimental label, Buried In Time. He then moved onto Bradford-based Midnight Recordings before being picked up by Pnuma shortly after. Citing his influences as "techno, techno, techno and Tetris", LGO also takes inspiration from IDM, ambient and electro, all of which are evident in this three-tracker. Early 2008 will see the re-release of I'll Lick Your Spine by LGO (originally on Pnuma). This will feature remixes by Massi DL and label mate, Vector Lovers. Let's Go Outside's debut album, 'A Picnic With The Hunters', is due for release in January 2008.
