(Jackson1100 Tigerpaw) With a passion for music and the ability to weave entertainment and good musical taste, something he believes some DJs lack, Jackson jumped into spinning tunes four years ago. He wanted to make a good impression and enjoyable atmosphere for his listeners,and judging by his following, he has succeeded.

His advice for upcoming DJs: DJing isn’t about what you want, it’s about what the demographic of club desires, so as a DJ it’s your job to listen to what they want, and be able to present them songs that they may have heard of before and already love, along with songs they may not have

A massive dubstep fan, he collects different varieties from remixes to original mixes and he loves to share his passion at Ambrosia Dance Club and Rez Nightclub. “They aim to create a different environment for their audience, focussing more on the entertainment aspects of DJs whilst trying to stay away from DJs that are basically just glorified radio,” he explains. Well known for his use of “swag”, he is a DJ to check out when you want good music, and a good time.
