Point Of View: Discovering INSTINCT, James Burnham’s UK Garage Alias
Today we’re catching up with James Burnham, aka James Solace, aka Burnski, but this time we are talking to him as INSTINCT, his UK Garage alias. The UK artist has built his career around years of putting out top quality music under his various guises.
In this interview we dissect his INSTINCT project, under which he is set to release his second album later this year; Point Of View. It features exciting new material as well as previously released certified anthems that join the dots between garage, dub, minimal, breakbeat and tech.
The INSTINCT project was started by the young veteran to have a bit more fun and freedom in the studio. A few years later, however, and some off-the-cuff studio sessions became the spearhead for a new garage movement, with INSTINCT right at the forefront. A second full length within 12 months is landing and is another widescreen showcase of the INSTINCT sound: from dark bangers to cheeky vocal cuts via deep down and dirty rollers, this is high grade club tackle that never fails to connect with the crowd.
