Having grown up in South London with a defining new sound emerging which was to become known as tech house, Jon ‘misterjon’Hammond has stayed true to the deep, driving sounds of ‘houseno’, putting on parties in London, Wales and Bristol, as well as Scotland, Spain, Portugal, Italy and here in the southern hemisphere. In Bristol Jon founded Blue Fusion, not only managing and promoting live music from guitars to drum ‘n’ bass to hip hop but presenting them alongside huge talents such as Red Snapper and Faze Action. Recognition from the strong industry (Massive Attack, Tricky, Portishead, Roni Size, Smith & Mighty, Kosheen) was for the blurring of traditional boundaries with DJs such as John Stapleton of Dope on Plastic fame, Jody from Way Out West and DJ Vadim of Ninja Tunes alongside local talent making sure any event flowed but also produced the unexpected. Not content with just that Jon managed the ever popular Arc bar from scratch including the infamous JAM sessions every Wednesday on top of visits from Basement Jaxx, Underground Resistance and Fourtet. Any spare time was filled with a role as Regional Manager for The Fly magazine, a national leader in promoting live music. Any Londoners will also remember Jons’ Mix Down sessions on CFM. 

In Melbourne, Jon ran his own street press called Cheap Thrills, a funky, free fortnightly magazine and e-newsletter which covered the inner Northern suburbs featuring music, arts, film, festivals, clubs, social conciousness and a gig guide. 

With over 20years of DJ experience, a set from misterjon can range from blissed out chilled beats through deep and jazzy house to grooving tech house and funky techno…

Ash Lee is a Melbourne-based DJ with over two decades experience, shaped by a long-standing connection to vinyl culture and an expansive music library built over time. His approach is rooted in deep musical knowledge and a keen sense of what a room needs, balancing nostalgia with the new. His sets reflect both a deep respect for the past and a forward-thinking ear, always aiming to strike the right balance between discovery and familiarity.

Ash’s sets are anchored in house and disco, shaped by everything from classics and modern reworks to a discerning palette that leans into deeper territory. Depending on the environment, his sound broadens to include elements of nu disco, funk, and downtempo, always delivered with a clear sense of musical direction.

His approach is open-format and instinctive, shaped by years of listening, learning, and refining. Each performance draws from extensive experience across club, event, and private settings. Equally comfortable working with vinyl or digital tools, his focus is always on flow, feeling, and creating a lasting connection with the audience.
