Hailing from Eaing, West London I am DJ Jay St Paul a Specialist, radio and club DJ across London. The main music genres I focus on are Hip-Hop, R&B, House, Soulful House, Deep House, Baseline and Chill-Out.
 
Having always had a strong musical influence from my father who was in a band called Index before I was born, from the point of conception, brewing in my mother’s womb, after birth and growing up I have been around music. He used to take me in to the front room which at this point was his music den with a two seater and a large green beanbag, his record collection and of course his stacked sound system (kind of showing my age a bit ;p) and play music. When I was 13 during this period of growing up I spent a lot of time with my DJ uncle watching him put mixtapes together, it was during this that I learnt about the technicalities involved in being a good DJ by observing him blend seamlessly, mix and juggle whilst he performed. Influences outside of my circle are, DJ Premier, DJ Jazzy Jeff, Grandmaster Flash, DJ Babu, Carl Cox, to name a few.
 
My passion for DJing initiated when I came across a DJ software called Virtual DJ; A software that other DJ’s would frown upon, especially those who are more accustomed to the likes of Traktor and Serato. I had to learn from scratch like all good DJ’s but I learnt on a digital platform where I could see the waves, read the metadata and also get the correct BPM’s and Key’s. Combatting the flaws of the software, I stayed up for days burning out my CD drive uploading all the music we had on CD’s in the house that I wanted to DJ. Days went by when I just used the keys on the keyboard for mixing learning the shortcut keys and the essential mapping of the keyboard so the software worked as I wanted it. For my first gig I was given the opportunity to DJ for the American University of Richmond student party and Spring- Fest party, this allowed me to put my skills into practice. Although I had to bring my whole desktop PC (including the monitor!) to the event, I left the crowd in awe of my creative abilities as a DJ, a gig that is remembered to date.
 
It wasn’t until a few years later I finally purchased a Numark DJ micro mixer and turntables. It was from here that I developed my mixing abilities and skills as a turntablist. My versatility as a DJ is exemplified through my ability to be able to adapt my style to captivate different audiences; from student nights at The International American University in Richmond, Spring – Fests, private parties to the larger music festivals such as ‘Bournemouth 7s’, where I was the headlining DJ in the Urban tent for the past 2 years. I hosted a few nights at Ping and My Place Night Club in Earls Court and I have had the privilege of playing at the iconic Noting Hill Art’s club several times supporting acts and DJ’ing for specialist Hip Hop nights.
 
 As well as building up a strong reputation as a club DJ, I have also showcased my skills in the radio arena as a DJ for Westside (89.6FM and online) a London Urban station, dedicated to playing the biggest Hip Hop and RnB anthems. On radio I have produced, Dj’d and presented shows; developing my own radio personality and finding creative ways to interact with my listeners. It’s through my work on radio that I am able to open my listener’s ears to new sounds and talent, which was one of the main reasons I became a DJ.  
 
2016 is an exciting year for me with my own events in the pipeline I shall also establish a DJ agency working with clubs, venues and promoters to find them the best DJ’s who know, understand and love the art form and most importantly know how to keep a floor filled.
