Biography

Inspired by early rave, jungle, and breakbeat pioneers like The KLF, The Prodigy, Goldie & DJ Randall, Jay began collecting vinyl and bought his first decks at age 14.

Jay bagged his first DJ booking on Vision FM in 1995. Since then, he’s had mixes on various shows, including Reprezent Radio, Breaks FM and Ministry of Sound Radio.

Jay has also created a series of DJ mixes for Superdry’s UK stores and has edited a DnB Classics mix for Concrete Junglists. His ‘Golden Era’ mixes, which mash up over 100 tracks in Ableton, have gained over 35,000 plays across Soundcloud and Mixcloud.

His ear for a great mix has seen Jay win several DJ competitions, including Ministry of Sounds ‘Annual DJ’ and, most recently, the ‘Underneath the Shadows’ comp for DnB heavyweights Viper Recordings.

As a DJ, Jay has played at some of the country’s top venues, including Ministry of Sound, Brixton Academy, Thirty3Hz and Heaven.

On the production front, his track GIVE IT UP, which featured vocals from Andrea Britton, entered the Top 10 for the DJ Magazine Breaks & Beats Chart and received BBC Radio 1 airplay for four weeks running.

‘FOLLOW WE’, which featured The Ragga Twins, was Jay’s first foray into Drum and Bass production and was snapped up by Brighton-based Tru Thoughts Records. The track received heavy support from the legendary Nicky Blackmarket.

Jay has followed this up with a Drum and Bass remix of Lightning Head’s ‘Me & Me Princess’.
