James Connolly, better known as L-Vis 1990, is a British DJ, producer, and co-founder of influential electronic music label Night Slugs. Emerging from the UK’s fertile club scene in the late 2000s, Connolly quickly became a central figure in the evolution of bass-driven, experimental club music. With a sonic palette that draws on grime, house, techno, and global club influences, L-Vis 1990 is celebrated for his forward-thinking productions and genre-defying DJ sets.
Connolly’s early releases, including the acclaimed 2011 album *Neon Dreams*, helped define the Night Slugs sound—an intersection of raw club rhythms, futuristic synths, and inventive beat programming. Beyond his solo work, he has collaborated with artists like Bok Bok (his Night Slugs co-founder), Jam City, and Kingdom, and has produced remixes for international acts such as Ciara and Kylie Minogue. L-Vis 1990 continues to push boundaries through his productions, curatorial work, and high-energy DJ performances at leading clubs and festivals worldwide.
His commitment to amplifying diverse voices and innovative sounds has cemented his reputation as a tastemaker and visionary in contemporary club culture.
