Jimpy – DJ, Producer, Promoter

Jimpy’s journey began in 1993 as one of the original resident DJs at the legendary Hippo Club, a venue widely regarded as one of Wales’ most iconic and influential nightspots. During his tenure, he performed alongside some of the most revered names in electronic music, including Sasha, John Digweed, Nick Warren, Paul Oakenfold, Sven Väth, Sister Bliss, John Kelly, and Laurent Garnier. He was also a core figure at Timeflies in Cardiff, one of the UK’s longest-running and most respected club brands.

Riding the wave of early acclaim, Jimpy soon took his sound global—playing to packed dancefloors across Europe, Asia, and North America. In 1997, he earned national recognition by securing second place in the UK Ministry of Sound Mixing Championship—a major accolade in the height of the vinyl era. By 2000, his rising profile saw him ranked #54 in DJ Magazine’s Top 100 DJs, cementing his place among the world’s elite.

That same year, Jimpy launched his own legendary club nights, most notably Enter the Dragon at Vision 2K—where he was joined by Paul Oakenfold—followed by the infamous ROAR. His dynamic and forward-thinking sets led to appearances at renowned clubbing institutions such as Slinky, Cream, Back to Basics, Renaissance, Miss Moneypenny’s, Godskitchen, Gatecrasher, and Good Greef. His international highlights include shows at The Escape Club, Republica @ Bakers, Labyrinth (Zurich), Queens (Hong Kong), Club Quality (Helsinki), Club SOI (Northern Ireland), The Government (Toronto), Zouk (Singapore), and the Watapalava Tour across the USA.

Following an eight-year hiatus to focus on a successful career in iGaming development, Jimpy returned to the scene in 2012 with the launch of Cellar Door, a series of underground raves held in a converted bank vault in Cardiff. The events quickly became a cult favourite, consistently showcasing South Wales’ finest DJ talent until 2019.

In 2023, Jimpy reignited his legendary brand with a sold-out Enter the Dragon reunion, attracting over 1,000 clubbers. He delivered a standout 2.5-hour vinyl set of trance classics alongside Mauro Picotto and Fergie. The brand continues to grow into 2024 and 2025, with major events at District Nightclub featuring heavyweights such as Ferry Corsten, Giuseppe Ottaviani, NIFRA, Ruben De Ronde, Factor B, Rob Tissera, Lisa Pin-Up, and many more.

In parallel, Jimpy has re-ignited his production career. After releasing a three-track EP on Shodan Records in 2022/23, he followed up with “Real DJs” on Rhythm Cult in 2024, including remixes by Aubrey Fry and Pico Boulevard. The track received early support from legends such as Sasha, Hernan Cattaneo, and Anthony Pappa. Now in 2025, Jimpy has already released five new tracks and remixes, with his version of “Supersonic Velvet” on Stripped Recordings climbing to #4 on the Beatport Progressive Chart.

Looking ahead, Jimpy is collaborating with the acclaimed Aubrey Fry—renowned for his releases on Bedrock and Last Night on Earth—on a joint album project, set to deliver a bold and forward-thinking contribution to the future of progressive and trance music.
