DJ JXSNTR
Hi, My name is Paul Jackson, I'm 16 years old. I write and record my own music, I use to be in a band called the Discouraged and now I've moved on to making my own stuff.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
My current occupation is DJing and Sound Engineering. I play a lot of instruments including DJ, Guitars, Bass, Keyboards, Drums (Main) and I sing. I was in a band called The Discouraged' but now we've split up.
I like rock music and trance music. I'm working on 2 albums, one that includes my influences such as Joe Hann and another which contains Trance tracks. I write and record all my own material, I've done music tracks for films as well as other stuff. I've been DJing for 5 months or more but I've started to make my own music.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I've had gigging experience with a band called Wild Olive and I've played drums for live events but I have never DJ'd live. Something I want to do though.
Your musical influences
Ferry Corsten, Paul Van Dyk, DJ Tiesto
What equipment do you use?
I got some Numarks but I hope to buy some Technics in a couple of months. Two Yamaha monitors and a stupid numark mixer. I got groove tools (Stylus). I got Roland U-20 and a Korg X5D, both which I used to make songs your hearing now.
