I am a UK-based electronic music producer pushing the boundaries of rave, oldskool, and breakbeat culture. Drawing deep inspiration from the golden era of 90s underground dance music, my sound is a high-octane blend of fat kicks, raw breaks, heavy basslines, and nostalgic euphoria. 

I've carved a niche as a modern revivalist of classic UK rave energy. My music captures the essence of warehouse culture—gritty, emotional, and fiercely rhythmic—while using modern production techniques to deliver a fresh yet familiar sound. Whether it’s a rush of jungle drums or acid-tinged synths, I create tracks that resonate with both veteran ravers and a new generation of bass lovers.

I've got a deep knowledge of rave history, which brings that authenticity to every beat. With an ever-growing catalog and a strong presence in the digital underground, I aim to contribute towards the ever evolving landscape of break-driven electronic music.

I was heavily influenced in my teens by '90s oldskool rave and have been a sucker for a good piano line ever since. That passion evolved into a love for techno, leading me to DJ at countless free parties and illegal raves across the South East of the UK, playing on some of the region’s most iconic underground sound systems.

After stepping away from DJing for a number of years, I returned to music with a fresh focus—producing my own tracks. Since then, my productions have gained international recognition, with support from the likes of Carl Cox, Ricardo Villalobos, Floating Points, and others across the global electronic scene.

If you're interested in oldskool rave, breakbeat or jungle inspired music, my work offers a modern take on these classic genres.

Well seeing as this site is prodominently about music then thats all il mention. Been into dance music since it began really since the late 80's and it come along at just the right time really just as i was becoming a teenager. Listened to the american house at that time,chicago house,detroit house etc,then seemed to naturally progress into listening to acid house and the hardcore/breakbeat/rave sound that started not long after that. And so from then and until now iv always been into house and electronic music in general. Became intrested in the dj aspect and mixing music and i certainly felt the buzz of what doing that can create and make you feel inside,but its always only been a hobby. I also got my hands on some music producing software and dabbled with that.A lot of the music iv been making has tended to have alot of old flavours in them,i think thats because i kind of wanted to show abit of integrity to show how long iv been into dance music,and because of having a bit of a fondness for all those old dance tunes i grew up on.

Most of the links iv mentioned are also available to click on below.

After doing a title search on here for my own mixes, iv noticed there is some people that re-upload my mixes to their own page. So just a notice to those people and to whom ever else it may concern, im not sure if they/you do it as a compliment to me cos you like my mix and you are just putting my mix out to a wider audience, or if you re-upload it to try and claim the mix is your own creation..............Well i hope it's not the latter!!!!!

JELO is a Canadian adventurer in electronic music. For two decades, he's been on tour, rocking dance floors and pushing a sound best described as explosive. Inspiring dance floor partiers the world round to push their limits, no two performances are alike—and that's proven each time JELO hits the mixer. In venues or festivals, big or small, the sensation of JELO is always a full-blown spectacle.
JELO's productions have been supported by numerous renowned artists, including Pete Tong, Umek, Gareth Emery, Moguai, Kill The Noise, Bad Boy Bill, Matt Zo, Above and Beyond, Funkagenda, Dave Spoon, The Bloody Beetroots, Adam K, Donald Glaude, DJ Dan, ReZone, Joachim Garraud, Dannic, Cat Dealers, and more.
Many of Canada's top dance music producers are excited to collaborate with JELO because of his unique ability to move dance floors. Among these collaborations, "The Reward is Cheese" with deadmau5 became a #1 hit on Beatport, as well as many other charts, and inspired the genre of Electro House, emerging as a world-renowned dance-floor hit. "Donkey Punch" with Hatiras was a top-ten anthem that birthed Beatport's #1 breakbeat edit by Elite Force, called "M.A.D." "Speakerhumper", again with Hatiras, was another top-10 track. Recent works with Adam K brought forth re-edits from Krafty Kuts, and their release "Room Mates" was signed to Funkagenda's Funk Farm Label. ReZone, Savant, Mooij, FWLR, and many more have collaborated with JELO in the studio over the years, and the list continues to grow. All of the music hit a variety of genre charts.
JELO has headlined major festivals including Ultra, Masago Beach, World DJ Festival in Seoul upon the Red Bull Music Academy Stage, Burning Man, Digital Dreams, WEMF, VEMF, The Virgin Music Festival, Shambhala, Midsummer Madness, PRIDE Toronto, Evolve, Telus World Ski & Snowboard Fest, and Love Parade in San Francisco, to name a few. This Canadian rocking genre-less phenomenon is pure magic. It's never known to anyone save for JELO which direction or genre will be performed upon a dance floor; however, it's certain that hands will be in the air and vocal chords will be exhausted. Dedicated to his musical craft, JELO is guided by an awesome, natural intensity and an astonishing musical dedication to challenge the dance floor, one beat at a time.

Not one to ever slow down or fall behind and always keeping himself fresh and relevant, this dancefloor don has been focusing lately on the biggest and best house beats, which has led him to an already extraordinarily busy 2020. Add to that his upcoming book “My Story (and How I Became a World Class DJ)”, which is set to be a smash hit amongst rave fanatics the World over later this year and with over a hundred gigs booked for 2020 already (mid-Feb), there are no signs of this crowd pleasing international artist slowing down any time soon.
