JP & Jukesy

Biography

JP & Jukesy aka Jon-Paul Montgomery and Adam Jukes are two rising stars in the UK scene especially in their home city of Birmingham.

We both have come from a clubbing background and have spent every weekend out for the last couple of years going to various clubs around the country, after a about 4 years of clubbing we decided we wanted to do more than just go to clubs. We decided we wanted to play in the clubs, we wanted to control the music played out to the clubbers and this gives us great satisfaction. To see the smiling faces of thousands of clubbers gives us both such an amazing adrenaline rush, that rush it what drives us week in week out. We have always favoured the harder side of hard house and this reflects in the sets that we play we also play hard trance and techno in our sets.

After fully supporting Sunday School in their opening months in Birmingham we were both given solo slots playing at the night, this is where we decided to go back to back and from April 2002 we were given a monthly residency as JP & Jukesy and we haven't looked back since. Sunday School gave us our first monthly residency and when the night decided to expand to a larger club in Birmingham they took us with them. We have since played at every event for Sunday School at the Bonds nightclub and are now the main residents with Tim k.

In the Summer of 2002 we set up our own night called Fluential at the Academy bar in Birmingham which was successful and ran for 8 weeks but due to other commitments the night was put on hold. In this time we were also given a residency at 2 student nights, Bounce and Frazzle.

Also in 2002 Afterssential opened at Subway City where we played the second night from the launch and had the privilege to take over from Andy Farley, since then the closing slots at Afterssential have always been a joy to play.

We have also appeared live on www.bpmradio.co.uk several times in 2002 going out live to 1000+

In 2003 we entered our first Dj competition it was for www.bangingtunes.com of which we were 1 of 8 winners and were awarded a set in the BT room at Insomniacz F.U.C.K in Sheffield which has been one of the hardest events the UK has ever seen. With a good performance there we are now booked to play again and also received a booking for World Dj Day where all proceeds go to cancer research.

In March 2003 after an excellent performance at a rammed Insomniacz Leicester we were given a bi-monthly residency at the Leicester event. We were also given main residents spot at the Jam in Birmingham and Delicious in Oswestry. We also opened a new afterclub called Deprivation with Daley, which will run special events on the Bank holiday weekends.

Working hard for our love of hard house and wanting to bring our own style to the dance floor we have had 2 tracks signed to Passion Records and will be released on Passion Presents in April. Both tracks How I feel and H-bomb are two hard house stompers and the reaction to both records has been excellent. 

In 2003 we joined Gurn.net's DJ Agency, ClubTheWorld DJ Agency, DJ-Register DJ Agency,  Mainroom DJ Agency and will be playing at their tours around the country. If you are interested in booking these agencies for a tour please contact Jukesy or JP for details.                 .

We compile hard house charts for hard to find records every other month, this is mailed out to over 180,000 customers worldwide, and we also compile monthly charts for our website
