I can second Rick's comments on this. James toured Japan with Bernhard Wagner and myself a few years ago - Some of his stuff is exceptionally good imo.
Bobdog is also a very talented guy and a talented producer. Willie Oterie and Dave Laczko are another very interesting looping team I believe they live in Austin. I had a very cool jam with them in Florence, Italy this year. Dave's tone is exceptionally finely honed and Willie is just - well - out there!
