Written, produced and mixed by James and recorded in West London and New York City, 'The Shape Of History' is James' tenth album. My sweet spot is mid-late 70's downtown NYC New Wave Punk: CBGB and Max's Kansas City. It is from this sound that my taste for sequenced and dark NY and Euro electro and no-wave evolves.' The Shape Of History' was recorded on Scrubs Lane, West London with Alex Ward, Harry Bohay and James Sclavunos. I then went off to NYC and Brooklyn to record the pianos and organs with Dave 'The Moose' Sherman. Overdubbing continued with Al Lawson at the engineering helm in his Shepherd's Bush studio and then I went back to Berkeley, CA to mix with Jesse Nichols before mastering with Fred Kevorkian in Brooklyn NY. I have spent so much time with this music, I know it note-for-note and I love it and I am so happy for you to now make it your own". "From meeting Nick Christian Sayer and forming Transvision Vamp, the two of us walking into EMI Records and demanding to see the head of Artists and Repertoire, Dave Ambrose. Getting signed and making our hits of the late 80's and90's. From collaborating with Elvis Costello and mixing that album at Sunset Sound in Hollywood where The Stones mixed 'Exile On Main St', then moving to NYC to start writing and recording as a solo artist, all the gigs I've played and the friends I've made around the world, the astounding, incredible, wonderful people whose lives I've crossed paths with... I am so grateful for it all."
