about
Shadow Fx was created in 2002 by the 26-year-old James Hayes from Melbourne, Australia. James started his musical career studying and playing drums and guitar in high school. Then at the age of seventeen he discovered psytrance in and around the famous trance hotspot of Byron Bay. After listening to and DJ-ing the music for several years, he decided to move to Melbourne and make a serious effort to put his own mark on the scene. He set himself up with a small studio and started to produce full time, leading him to the smooth and refined sound for which he is known today. Described as a blend of deep, funky, morning grooves that are distinctively shaped from the Zenon sound. Intricate percussion lines interplay with emotive synth lines, then pieced together in the most intelligent of progressive structures. In recent years he has played at many parties all over Australia including Rainbow Serpent, Earthdance and Audiogasm, as well as in Europe, Brazil, North America and New Zealand. He has also released compilation tracks on ZMA, Zenon and Bio-sine, as well as on Cosmic Conspiracy records with his brother Tetrameth. Shadow Fx has created a smooth blend of deep, funky, morning progressive that is distinctively shaped from the Zenon sound. His debut album ‘Direct Influence’ was released on Zenon Records in July of 2007. In 2008 he was nominated for beatport's psytrance artist of the year award.
