JNR J
DJ / Producer
Jnr J is the epitomy of Cool; A 21st century DJ who blends a fierce selection of very dirty house music with a larger than life personality and Zero Ego.
At the age of 17; Michael Collins, was introduced to the heady world of dance music by his younger brother LEEVAN who at the tender age of 12 sub consciously initiated his Big Brothers Destiny; After a shopping spell in Soho, the eager siblings soaked up the atmosphere of record shopping where JNR purchased his first ever 12”, which incidentally completely rocked his world!
So excited the teenager rushed home only to realize that you need TWO pieces of plastic to make a mix!!!
With no hesitation Michael Collins (Jnr J) swiftly mastered the art of Dj’in - courtesy of LEEVAN again he tailored his image and toured the underground of London club scene.
A few mix tapes circulated and Jnr’s Sound, huge personality and style met the seal of approval of London’s most discerning and hedonistic clubbers!
“JNR J “ was born.
Gigs throughout London firmly established JNR as an exciting newcomer, playing endless shows throughout the Capital, he became London’s most in demand after party hellraiser.
JNR’S flair, energy and technique quickly established his fan base and JNR found himself contemplating offers, he had only dreamed of.
JNR was lucky enough to reside at the infamous THROB PARTIES at JAMM, hosted by all round music enthusiasts FRANK Cooper and HEATH GARDINER.
As the popularity rose for our LARGER THAN LIFE entertainer; JNR and the THROB partnership Launched 1 of London’s coolest nights, The appropriately named JNRS JAMM, which supplies SW9 on a Bi-monthly basis a mix of all things nasty, dark and dirty, with guest appearances from some of the finest international Dj Talent…
Jamm formerly the venue that hosted the sound bed and fan club that became the BASEMENT JAXX home, has warmed to our spiky haired one and given him right to reside over the proceedings.
