James Hype traces his path from a 15-year-old begging for decks in the suburbs to a major record deal and a Las Vegas billboard. He played clubs at 18, moved to London, and ground through years of work before the breakthrough came.

I was the 15 year old spotty kid from the suburbs who begged his mum for some decks. At 18, I was in the club every night, standing by the speakers. I knew where I wanted to be. I had no proper training, but DJing and producing were my world. So I dived right in. I packed my bags and moved to London, lived off debt and worked every hour until people paid attention. This is the biggest deal I've ever signed and that was my face on the biggest billboard in Las Vegas. And we're still in charge up to 1.
