Jim Rivers

London, Moscow, Sao Paolo, Dublin, Mexico, Shanghai, Athens, Bogota, Singapore, Amsterdam… in the last year Jim has travelled the world with his techy, glitchy, groovy electronic sound - and looking back in retrospect, it has all consistently become crazier. Jim has continued to build on his reputation since his first release on Saw Recordings in 2006 ('Restore/Future' EP). Since then his music has appeared on Saved, Bedrock, EQ, Baroque, GU Music, Mouseville, Cr2, Audio Therapy & Renaissance and he has remixed for Nic Fanciulli, Quivver, Gabriel & Dresden and Paul Harris amongst many others. Jim's second EP for Saw, 'I Go Deep' received critical acclaim in the dance music press and A list DJ support globally.

November 2007 saw the launch of Jim’s own imprint, Misfit Records. The label allows Jim to release his own music the way he wants to, showcasing his different sounds and ideas. The label is now into its 4th release and has some great new music and remixers already on board, including No Brainer, Claes Rosen, Robytek, Tom Budden and Kos.

In 2008 Jim developed something of a studio partnership with Paolo Mojo, with two tracks already released; the first 'Darkplace' which came on Paolo's own Oosh imprint late last year and the second track, 'Ron Hardy Said' landed on Eric Prydz’s Mouseville Records. UK label Simple released Jim’s “Mirage” last autumn, featuring a remix from Tobias.

Further projects include an EP for John Digweed’s Bedrock label; and a stack of remixes for artists including Patric la Funk, Morgan Page, Lexicon Avenue, Milton Jackson and Oliver Moldan to name a few.

With the acclaimed launch of Misfit Records, the release of the Audio Therapy Spring/Summer Sampler), the fantastic Global Underground Nubreed project, a host of new productions and continued touring, Jim is without doubt one of the UK’s brightest prospects.
