James Pants is a great producer that can easily switch many styles – taking inspiration and influence from his deep and weird record collection. He does it all with a bit of laid back charm, which I think is lacking in a lot of today’s music. For me he has slightly gone under the radar over the years, even though he is on Stones Throw. I keep expecting him to have a big hit one day, but you get the feeling he is happy just doing his own thing, making music that he wants to on his own terms. Definitely worth digging round his back catalogue.
