"I became familiar with James a long time ago when he opened up for me at one of my gigs in Ireland," he says.
"Since then, he has been sending me his releases which I have been supporting on my radio shows. When he sent me a version of All Night, I loved it!!
"We got stems, went to work and here's the final product. James is from Sligo, so it's an all-Irish collab. Dance music is thriving in Ireland at the moment so it's amazing to be part of it.'
Tell us three things about yourself . . .
I'm fostering a puppy called Steve for the Dogs For The Disabled. I eat peanut butter from a jar with a spoon (must be crunchy). I get my haircut once a week
How would you describe your music?
Catchy I guess. I'm a sucker for a singalong so I try to incorporate that into my releases. Some of my older releases show that with covers of Stand By Me by Ben E King and Another Night by the Real McCoy. I sometimes wonder do I frustrate my co producer Conor McEvoy with my want to be extra cheesy but he has told me he doesn't mind. I'm not sure though.

Tiesto and Don Diablo. Both have shown that there's no need to stick to one genre when it comes to releases.
What was the first gig you ever went to?
Garth Brooks in Croke Park in the 90s. I was literally a baby and my mother took me along with her best friend. I remember it being such a fun night sitting on my mam's shoulder vibing to Friends In Low Places. Naturally, I had to make sure I got tickets when he came back recently for his five-night stint.
What was the first record you ever bought?
Linkin Park - Hybrid Theory. I remember it so well. Golden discs in Nutgrove Shopping Centre in County Dublin. The white artwork with the red CD inside. I sat down and made sure to learn every single lyric to every track. What a masterpiece it is.
What's your favourite song right now?
Hozier - Too Sweet, for sure. I had to make an edit to use for my club sets just to get away with it, so I mashed it up with Belters Only’s Make Me Feel Good. He's an absolute icon and he deserves every bit of success that track is bringing him. A global hit without a doubt!
Favourite lyric of all time?
"I'm looking for a man in finance , 6'5 , blue eyes" -
If you could only listen to one song for the rest of your life, what would it be?
Sash ft Stunt - Raindrops.
