Steve James
Stephen James Philibin, better known by his stage name Steve James, is an American record producer, songwriter, and DJ.
Steve James was born in Johnstown, Pennsylvania. He began learning the piano at the age of four, classically trained. He was introduced to progressive house music by his brother and was inspired to pursue electronic music production after seeing Avicii live, at the age of 14. James began experimenting with Ableton at age 15 and found early success with his remix of ZHU's "Faded," which was the top remix of 2014 on Sirius XM's BPM Station.
In the summer of 2015, James took a trip to Los Angeles, California and was introduced to Jason Boyd (Poo Bear). Upon their first meeting, James played Poo Bear an instrumental idea on the piano, which leads to them co-writing and co-producing the title track on Justin Bieber's fourth studio album, 'Purpose. The album has since gone 3x Platinum in the US (RIAA) and 4x Platinum in Canada.
