James Curd

James Curd began his DJing career in Chicago when he was only fifteen years old. Being underage, Curd was snuck into events to play at raves and clubs he was not legally allowed in.
He played along side some of electronic music's most respected acts and DJs.
As "Greenskeepers" Curd released an array of music on Classic records. He made his mark on the dance music world by infusing swing music and Chicago house to invent the term G-Swing, being short for Greenskeepers Swing. Curd focused on G-Swing and started a label by that same name to feature this unique sound. Around this same time Curd also owned and operated two other record labels "Igloo" and "Greenskeepers Music".
Curd has performed at some of the world's most respected clubs. From Fabric in London, The Avalon in Los Angeles, Home in Sydney to The Arches in Glasgow. Curd has also been part of festivals such as Park Life in Australia, Lollapalooza In Chicago, T In The Park in Scotland and Electric Picnic in Ireland.
Curd continues to consistently release quality new music by pushing his sound while also staying true to his roots. With Curd anything and everything can be expected.
Whether it's Rockstar Games using his song for the "Grand Theft Auto 4" Ad campaign or his latest EP sitting at number one on Juno, you never know what to expect from the talented Curd or where his music might pop up.

  • I was at a festival about 2 weeks ago, and there were a bunch of DJs all playing this "electro-swing" music. I was trying to tell them that I was spinning this stuff nearly 10 years ago in the form of the mighty greenskeepers!! they told me to shut up and dance, which actually, was great advice. anyway, respect! :) 1 week ago
