Jansons
Jansons' chart-topping music on labels like Knee Deep In Sound, Hot Creations and 8Bit are all united by one thing - his love of all forms of house. He writes positive records with uplifting emotions and a timeless feel. Drawing on his experience as a sound engineer, Jansons knows exactly how to convert those feelings into sonics with real structure and narrative. A Jansons release is always rooted in the realness of the classics rather than following fads or trends.
His dexterity in the studio on his synths and drum machines has caught some serious attention from fans and tastemakers alike, with hundreds of thousands of people viewing his studio sessions online, offering insight into his masterful production process. And his all-new hybrid live show, following years of DJing at seminal events and venues such as Watergate Berlin, BPM Portugal, and Manchester's Warehouse Project, highlights his ability as a performer.
After serving up one of 2019's biggest records, which came out on Circus Recordings, Jansons repeated the trick in 2022 with prolific producer and Virtuoso alumn Skream on their collaborative single 'World Is Empty'. And his upcoming release schedule is a testament to his hard work and dedication, with further collaborations with Skream and Richy Ahmed to come, not to mention plenty more solo records.
