  • James A. Morrison

    Musician & Composer

    You might be wondering why a guy promoting his EDM music would call his site James plays piano. Funny story, my kids middle school needed to find a new DJ. A friend at the school mentioned I was a piano player and fairly technical. How hard could DJing be was the thought. As it turns out it's like learning a whole new instrument and language. So the joke was, "James plays piano" why not just ask him to do it! 

    So I became DJ James and helped with the fundraising efforts for 5 years. I got to enjoy some great sounding music on a proper club system. We all had fun, and it was a fantastic experience to share with my kids. 

    I'm a piano player, electronic music producer and graphic designer. I've been developing my musical skills while working as a professional designer for more than 20 years. If you're interested in the music, collaboration on a project or learning some new skills, let's talk!

  • About Me

    I grew up in a normal musical family with a 2” tape machine in the basement. I learned to appreciate the artistry in recording and making great music at a young age. Music is what I always wanted to do, and design helped me to afford the time to get good at it while learning a few other things on the way.

    I started playing piano at a very young age. My first memory of the piano was reaching up and accidentally playing a C major chord...I was hooked!

    Here I am many years later putting my love of music to work while finding others to collaborate with. As a musician I believe I bring a unique style influenced by the sounds of the 90’s to the EDM sound. Producing and combining unusual musical styles and ideas has always been a welcomed challenge to me.

    I’m a pop/jazz piano player that loves electronic and classical music. I’m also a highly technical/creative artist capable of writing, producing and designing all my own material at a professional level. 

    I’m committed to creating great music that is addictive in nature to keep both kids and adults listening.

    So thank you for your time and taking a moment to listen to my latest projects. If you would like to be on my list for the next release please let me know. Thanks for Listening!
