Phonomental Music | Fraktured L.A. | Nexus Artists – Los Angeles, CA 

Jeff's earliest experience in dance music began in the mid-1980s in Sacramento, California working as a DJ for private events, local clubs to finally hitting the air waves on Sacramento’s popular FM-102 mix show as a guest DJ, mixing the latest club hits over the late-night weekend hours. 

In 1987, Jeff would make the move to Los Angeles to attend school to become a Sound Engineer. As fate would have it, Jeff (known as Spinn at the time) would eventually make his way to producing remixes in Burbank, California for Alternative & New Wave artists such as Depeche Mode, Pet Shop Boys, Fine Young Cannibals to EMF and was heard on the World Famous KROQ (106.7FM) exclusively. Soon after, Jeff’s voice and mixing talents could be heard as a co-host and mix show DJ on the legendary "Mars FM Top 30 Countdown" (103.1FM) with host and legend, Swedish Egil. In 1991, this Santa Monica based station was known for breaking such acts as Moby, The Prodigy, 808 State to Rozalla. Mars FM was also the first Electronic Dance Music station in the nation on the FM air waves while serving the Los Angeles, San Fernando Valley and Orange County area 24-7.

In the beginning of 1990, the United States was slowly adapting to an alternative style of Electronic Dance Music which was thriving in underground dance clubs in the Los Angeles area. At this time, Jeff was fortunate enough to work at a popular record shop in Hollywood, California supplying club/underground DJs the latest dance tracks to date. In 1994, Jeff opened up his own record shop and label with a colleague located 40 miles south in Orange County, California and would remain in business in one way, shape or form for 16 years.  

In 1997, Simply Jeff received his first recording contract from an indie record label based out of Los Angeles with a name suitability called, “City of Angels” (also prior home of The Crystal Method, Uberzone and Elite Force). Jeff would continue to release popular dance singles such as "My Planet" and "Godzilla Funk" to releasing top selling dance compilations such as the "Funk-Da-Fried" series which has received worldwide acclaim. 

Simply Jeff's evolving style of Funky Breaks accompanied by the funky sounds of House and Techno has taken Jeff to perform on stages around the world. Simply Jeff has also appeared as an authority figure in major films, television shows, live cast and documentaries on the subject of Electronic Dance Music over years.

Simply Jeff has evolved once again as an artist and dance music enthusiast. This has ultimately drove Jeff’s passion and life mission to share, inspire and educate the next generation of Electronic Dance Music artist and enthusiast around the world.  In the summer of 2019, Jeff released his first dance single in 9 years called "Sister Valentine" featured on the album compilation "Beyond the Stars" (a tribute to the late great Skylab 2000).

This mix is brimming with my signature funk-heavy, rollin’ beats and party swagger. There’s some amazing toons out there and I have trawled the world to find some breakbeat that still hits the mark. I love all styles of music but the crazy rhythms and technology, laced with a nod to the old school will always get me hyped. I hope you enjoy this mix as much as I did putting it together and feedback is always appreciated. Enjoy amigos!

DT vs SOR DJ MIX March 2012

Here's an eclectic little mix to wiggle your butt to. It's got a little something for everyone. :) The track listing is in the mix artwork.

Uberzone July Promo Mix

Classic old school mix from MONK

Some of you were asking for this so I uploaded it.

This is the original Mixtape version, not the spliced to fit on CD version!
Monk

Monk - Natural Born Pervert Vol.1 (The Phuck Phenomenon) - Classic Old School Mix

REMASTER from an old analog mixtape for the '2AM Side' of my second mix tape DESERT FUNK, best copy we could find!  Back when the Chemical Brothers were still the Dust Brothers, this one helped me finally land some local LA gigs after getting some initial interest as a resident Moontribe DJ.  All vinyl, and a little rough around the edges mix-wise as I was really just starting to DJ, this felt like when I was finally finding 'my sound' and things were starting to flow for me.  I think it also captures a bit of what was really a very special time in EDM and early LA underground dance culture which I feel so lucky to have been a part of.  Thanks again to Scott Cattanach for the fresh, original cover art, Ken Lawrence of Pure Acid Mixtapes for helping me spread the word, Moontribe for giving me a chance, LA DJ godfathers like Doc Martin, Steve Loria, and DJ Dan for their help and guidance, all the fans and promoters for their support, and of course the fabulous, rockin' artists who provide the music for this sonic journey.  
Track Listing below:
1.	 Leftfield – Inspection (Check One) – played at 45 RPM
2.	The Charlatans UK vs. The Chemical Brothers - Chemical Risk Dub (Toothache Mix)
3.	Sabres of Paradise – Tow Truck (Chemical Brothers remix)
4.	Underworld – Born Slippy (Nuxx)
5.	Manic Street Preachers – Faster (Chemical Brothers remix)
6.	Underworld – Born Slippy (original)
7.	Leftfield – Original Dub (played at 45 RPM)	
8.	Southside Reverb – Neusonic Melodic
