“If you’re a fan of house music, you can’t go past the feel-good styling of Jack Wins!â€
DJ Mag UK
With recent chart topping releases and official remix duties for the likes of Ed Sheeran, Clean Bandit,
Dua Lipa - not forgetting his collaborative remix with Jonas Blue - there's no wonder that DJ Mag UK
have championed the Dutch producer as one of their ‘Ones To Watch’. Now, with 2018 in full swing, Jack
Wins looks ahead to more A-list remixes and soon-to-be-revealed international festival dates - not to
mention joining the Axtone family with a series of releases, following a personal invitation to the label
from Axwell himself.
Behind every man is his story. For Jack Wins, it was the discovery of dance music at the age of 9. Aged
11, he first experienced a 25K capacity rave in his hometown of Haarlem, the Netherlands. Fast forward 6
years and he made the decision to move to the UK in order to pursue this relentless passion. Armed with
an innovative mind, Jack Wins made it his Saturday ritual to dig through the bargain basements of
London’s record stores, purchasing ‘white label’ vinyl to later sell them back to the same store with profit
once they became hits. This entrepreneurial streak lead to a career in the business side of music, before
a realisation that it was the creative side that he craved all along. From street flyering, to physically
sending out tapes to labels & promoters, to his very first residency at an East End pub in London - Jack
has proven that sheer determination will always win.
His debut on Mixmash Records - ‘Give It Up’ - was enough proof for heavyweights’ Don Diablo, Tiesto &
Oliver Heldens, who championed the release throughout their global radio shows. Then there was ‘I
Used To Love You’, which made the top 10 on Beatport after major tastemaker support. It wasn’t long
before BBC Radio 1 picked it up, which made the record trend on Shazam’s UK Dance Chart as well as
surpassing 5M Spotify stream to date. This fuelled Dutch Radio station SLAM to handpick Jack as one of
their ‘Artists To Watch’.
Alongside his original productions, Jack Wins is becoming the go-to guy for remixes. From Bastille to
Alan Walker, Tom Odell to Dua Lipa - there isn’t a single genre that he can’t rework. It's worth
mentioning that he remixed Ed Sheeran’s ‘Shape Of You’ and Clean Bandit’s ‘Rockabye’ when both
tracks were sat in the top two positions of the most Shazamed tracks in the world.
On choosing the name, Jack Wins explains: “I wanted to have a name that represents both my music
and positivity. The name ‘Jack’ to me represents ‘house music’, as historically the name is closely
associated with this genre, and ‘Wins’ refers to my ethos: ‘winning’ at life - focus on the things in life that
make you happy!“
So what's next for the upcoming DJ and producer? As Axtone debut ‘Freewheelin’ feat. Caitlyn Scarlett
continues to build momentum, not forgetting recent remixes for Kygo & Axwell /\ Ingrosso, Jack Wins
will continue to bring colour and life to his productions and performances - all driven by his love of music,
fashion & art. 2018 will be an exploration of new music, as well as festival stages and clubs worldwide,
showcasing his ability to incorporate a live performance on the Maschine controller in each and every DJ
set.
