Culprit 1 aka Culprit One (born James Hannam) is a London-based DJ, remixer and electronica producer. He is considered 'The DJ Shadow of Wales' by BBC Radio 1 and 'The Bastard Son of Orbital and RJD2' by XFM.
An emerging talent in the UK electronic music scene, he has built up a dedicated fanbase through a string of EPs and the critically-acclaimed debut album 'Running in Order'. Culprit 1 is also in demand as a remixer, having produced alternative versions of UK chart hits for Kaiser Chiefs, Orbital's Paul Hartnoll and The Automatic. His music has been supported on BBC Radio 1 by Steve Lamacq, Zane Lowe, Bethan Elfyn, Annie Mac, Annie Nightingale, Colin Murray and Huw Stephens (who contributed sleeve notes to 'Running in Order').
Most popular in Japan and Germany, he has often bemoaned the demise of dance music in his home country through comments made in several magazine interviews (see external links for details).
Unusually for a producer in a traditionally serious and publicity-shy genre, Culprit 1 maintains an amusing, tongue-in-cheek journal in which he regularly describes his European touring experiences and day trips back to Wales. Titles include 'Boat Trip' and 'Sunday Night Feeling'.
Culprit 1 live shows are quite rare and he has performed only five times so far in 2007. Following popular events with a string quartet early in 2007 (two members of which also performed with Kanye West on his 2006 UK tour), he found favour in the classical music world, earning the support of influential UK radio station Classic FM.
Culprit 1's artwork, live visuals and videos are created by the award-winning motion design company Roughcollie.
