James Juke

Today marks the release of A Little Lost on @toucansounds - I’ve never put so much time, energy, and love into a project. In many ways it’s a love letter to all of the incredible artists and creatives that I’ve met since I moved to NYC 3+ years ago. As I settled into this new city and discovered new sounds, experiences, people, there were times I felt a little lost. I’ve tried to channel these feelings into my music, and there’s no better representation than this project that is 100% collaborative. I hope you can hear the love that went into this. Thank you to all of my friends, collaborators, and fans that have fueled my heart and soul along the way 🫶🏼

MY FIRST MUSIC VIDEO IS OUT TODAY!!! Last June I collaborated with @sofalamai to create an audiovisual representation of Haters & Congratulators. At the time I had no label backing it and spent months of fees from gigs and production to make it come to life. We were blessed with help from so many people; I especially wanna shoutout @djgabalicious @ms.chief____ and @shantymane — LINK IN MY BIO TO CHECK IT OUT Director/Producer: Sofala Mai Director of Photography: Cal Green 1st AD (schedule): Doran Dyer 2nd AD (energy)/BTS Photo: Sara Shewfelt Grip: Alex Connelly Friend 1: Adriana Allman Friend 2: Romina Shahmiri Hair: Banga Baby Make up: Kayla Trim Lee Clothing: Reeno by Jordan Qualls Jewelry: Flora Zhai Editor: Zoe Mountain VFX: Keats Colorist: Oliver Ojeil Special Thanks Cesar Perez, Cristina Corrie, Kayla Trim Lee, Emily Gordon, Jacy Case, Seb Isaac, Alexis Kwan, Crystal Biteng, David Cain, Carly Jordyn, Alex Stiles, Carla Kay, Zeshae Camacho-Tittle, Nas, The Queen Elizabeth, Brielle Maricucci, Nelson (Love Train), Vaughn Hamilton Bobb-Willis, Julian Lopez, Julian Souffrant, Michael Paris, Valdano Terzic, Andrew Arrington

Plane to CDMX is out today on @anthrfckngparty !!! As the name suggests, I made this song about a year ago on the plane to Mexico City.

James Juke invites Dee Diggs for an intimate night of groovy, soulful house music for the latest edition of The Jukeboxx [@thejukeboxx.party ]. These days it’s common to see Dee playing top venues around the world, laying down her unique style of “heavy, yet soft house”. Her sets are widely described as adventurous, energetic, seductive, and rapturous. Now label-mates at toucan sounds, James and Dee express themselves equally in the booth and the studio. They share a passion for house music that doesn’t shy away from vocals, music that pulls you in as much as it moves you. This will likely be one of those nights you probably won’t catch again any time soon, one that reminds you of the power of top-notch music on a system built for it. Opening set by Nick Hallam [@nhallam ]. DJs • Dee Diggs [@dee.diggs ] • James Juke [@heyjamesjuke ] Ticket link in bio, free before 10pm.

After the Super Bowl organizers heard the promo for Bing Bong / Push Up On That, they strongly considered playing it right after Bad Bunny. Long story short, they decided not to. Still got a nice view of all those field goals though.

Bing Bong / Push Up On That - out now 🪩 @heyjamesjuk ; “This release feels extremely full-circle for me; one of the first DJ sets I ever saw was Dusky in Buenos Aires in 2018. That experience was one of the reasons I became a DJ, so I’m incredibly grateful to release on their label! Both of these songs were born from a desire to make some especially club-friendly tracks suited for a variety of dancefloors.” We hope you enjoy this release much as we do!!
