There was one video of him on YouTube a few years ago where was in the crowd with his launch pad and some keyboard warrior posted something like "all the gear and no idea" with an eye-roll emoji

Most other people would have ignored it or replied with an angry comeback.

But James was very polite and diplomatic asked the poster what kit he used himself, but also wrote in such detail it was clear he absolutely knew what he was talking about

Won the guy around by his next reply and then it goes back and forth again for a while

Not just technically brilliant but a really nice guy

I recall he did a lot of stuff with Fancilli around the mid 2000s and played We love space loads , Only 15e at Akasha ,must admit I thought it would sell out very quickly but doesn’t seem to have done yet .
 
I had a little chat in space many years ago, a great guy.... and I still listen to many of his we love sets today. What a shame that we missed him by a few days
 
My only experience of Zabiela was at Godskitchen (don't ask..) in 2006 and I found the set pretty boring tbh. Technically tight but nearly all progressive breaks and not a lot of house. A lot of hanging around waiting for something to happen. That said, his rework of the church's under the milky way did sound pretty cool towards the end though (sadly just a white label that never got cleared)

We meet at Croissant Show to discuss counter-culture, his new endeavour and the impetus behind it.

It's a quite a long read, but there's some interesting discussion points here.

Of course, we spoke for far longer! and if anybody is interested in reading even more of what Geoff has to say, then I'll be happy to pass on the full transcript via DM

Excellent interview. I really hope Off Brand works out for them, which I think it will.
