Biografía
- Club of Jacks are a London based House & Garage production / DJ duo with releases on a number of underground labels including Plastik People Recordings, Blockhead Recordings, Hi Energy!, Soul Revolution Records and their own Club of Jacks imprint.Club of Jacks a.k.a Max One and Mike Misiu have been bubbling away on the scene a long time, both as DJs, promoters and producers. Max was one of the founders and resident DJs at the legendary Step Back in Manchester where he was dropping his own dubplates alongside heavyweights such as LTJ Bukem, Ratpack and Jumping Jack Frost. He then went on to hold residencies at clubs across the UK, playing House and Garage alongside acts like Wookie, Double 99, and MJ Cole. Mike has been DJing, promoting and producing around London and beyond since the mid 90s and still co-runs the Cut the Rug parties at various exotic venues around the East end. Meanwhile his productions and edits have found their way onto dancefloors and sound systems across the world through a number of highly sought after vinyl releases which got plays from artists as diverse as DJ Harvey, Seth Troxler and Disclosure. So what happened when these two DJ / promoter / studio heads and long-time friends got together to produce the EP they’d always talked of making? Well, apart from a lot of intense late night chat about hi-hat patterns, analog gear lust and rare B-sides, the result of this meeting of hearts, minds and obsessions is Club of Jacks. A successful debut EP has now turned into a steady flow of releases and remixes that are getting international club and radio play from the likes of Todd Edwards, Golf Clap, Ashley Beedle, Jeremy Sylvester, Demarkus Lewis, Gene Farris and Gorgon City. Club of Jacks’ tracks have been released on a number of underground labels, including their own imprint, as well as Blockhead Recordings, Soul Revolution and Hi! Energy. Their latest EP “If You Feel Like” on Plastik People Recordings reached #4 on the Traxsource Deep House Chart (Feb ‘18) and held a Top 10 spot for over a month. A Club of Jacks’ production has the classic bump and groove of House & Garage with a speaker-shaking low end dub aesthetic and stylistic echoes ranging from Jazz to HipHop to Dancehall. Made to be played loud, wherever you like to jack your body! As DJs with decades of combined experience behind the decks, they know how to move a crowd, playing back to back across the spectrum of House, Garage and beyond. Both big record collectors, over the years they have DJ’d together regularly and rocked countless parties, sharing a particular love for the heavy drums and bass of labels like Nice n Ripe and Strictly Rhythm.
