From the earliest days of the scene in the '90s to today, Frivolous Jackson is an artist who has been completely infatuated with everything related to dance music and rave culture. Getting his footing in the Chicago House scene back in the day, he caught a number of groundbreaking acts early on before drumming up enough money to buy some decks of his own. Since then he hasn't looked back with a plethora of releases under different aliases, as well as a handful of imprints to help foster growth as well.

Frivolous Jackson cut his teeth during the Jackin' House resurgence that happened in the mid-'00s, dropping heaters as The Sound Republic, Frankie J, and Francis Jilla, the latter of which was his bootleg alias. Additionally, he pushed forward with Spatula City and Flapjack Records, the two labels he founded during that time as well. But duty calls and when he decided to begin a family he put his all into that aspect of his life, until his kids grew more independent and he could make a return.

Now, Frivolous Jackson has done just that with a flurry of fresh releases to mark his arrival back on the scene, as well as a freshly minted label called iSH that he helps run with Torrfisk as well. And you'll often find him in Golf Clap's Country Club Disco Community on Facebook as well, as he took on the role of Admin to help keep that thriving group flourishing.

After hearing his recent remix of SLATIN's "Put That iPhone Down" and seeing the onslaught of tunes he's dropped as of late, when the opportunity arose to chat with Frivolous Jackson we jumped at the chance. So check out his exclusive guest mix and click the link for the conversation to dive into the mind of this passionate house music artist.

“The voyage of discovery is not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes” - Marcel Proust

This journey we're about to embark on promises of exciting new sounds and feelings. Cloaked in a dark veil of mystery and intrigue, SLUGGERS have compiled a beautifully illustrated map to the cosmos. The sounds of science, with a techno pulse powers the 3 track release ahead. Beginning where one should, (at the start), 'Particles' introduces a lush and minimal framework which builds to a crescendo, somewhere just before 'Contact'. A hypnotic vocal, and playful percussion give way to an undeniably hype apex half way though the track, and as the resulting contact is made, the 'Horizon' is approached. We don't have a clever enough space analogy that would emphatically, yet poetically scream 'THIS TRACK IS SO HYPE'! But we know we've arrived, right where we're supposed to be. Are you in it for the journey though, or to simply reach the destination? We're enjoying this too much; lets hope the ride never ends...

Little is known about Miami-based SLUGGERS but in almost no time they have landed support from industry top dogs Skrillex, Boys Noize, A-Trak & Diplo. This has lead to SLUGGERS appearances at some of the worlds top festival stages including TomorrowWorld, Ultra Music Festival & EDC Las Vegas. After landing a track in Skrillex's BBC 1 Essential Mix the Slugs were tapped for an EP on OWSLA's Nest to close out 2013. Opening 2014 with an official remix of Diplo's single, 'Revolution' on Mad Decent - the Slugs are picking up right where they left off. Following up the Nest EP with a two song release on Fools Gold's Clubhouse, the Slugs are poised to have a break through year. We're thrilled to deliver this great collection on Main Course!
