Stanza is the stage name for James Middleditch, an electronic musician and DJ from Birmingham, England who rather inadvertently became a big name on the Bristol DJ scene while he was studying business there as a university student in 2004. Preferring to work in the drum and bass sub genre of electronic music, he has won several competitions and events as a result of his particularly skilled mixes and charismatic on-stage personality. Since then, DJ Stanza has decided to remain in Bristol and continues to contribute immensely to the city's vibrant club culture.
