Race Week: James Hype

British DJ and producer James Hype brings a high-energy house set to LIV at Fontainebleau Miami Beach as part of the venue’s Race Week programming. The event takes place Thursday, April 30, opening a weekend of late-night performances tied to one of Miami’s busiest entertainment periods.

Known for his fast-paced, hands-on mixing style, Hype has built an international following through club residencies, festival appearances and widely shared live performance clips. His sets blend tech house, bass house and club edits, often incorporating real-time mashups and rapid transitions that emphasize crowd interaction and spontaneity.

With releases on labels such as Defected and Toolroom and performances at major festivals including Tomorrowland and EDC, Hype continues to be a prominent figure in contemporary electronic music. Presented at LIV, the 21-and-over event takes place in a nightclub setting known for large-scale production and international DJ programming.
