JAGUAR SKILLS

One thing is known though. He has been responsible for some of the most exciting musical projects of the past few years. Largely centered around producing stunning mixes comprises his personal unique edits and mash-ups, Jag has caught the ear and worked with the likes of fashion label Maharishi, fashionista Jade Jagger, Urban Outfitters, Carling Zest, Renault Clio, and of course BBC Radio 1. His relationship with the public service broadcaster started with a weekly 10 Minute Mash Up Mix for the Trevor Nelson Show which ran for
several years. This led to him turning in his now legendary mixtape "1979-2006: A Hip-Hop Odyssey - 800 Tracks In 45 Minutes" which was downloaded over a MILLION times. Following this Jag also turned in his ‘History of DnB mix’ and
also a ‘History of Ayia Napa’ Mix for the station, such was the demand for his mixing prowess. Unsurprisingly respected labels eventually cam


Numerous sell out UK tours along with tours in North America and Australia bridged the gap before his second compilation on Ministry Of Sound, titled ‘Jaguar Skills And His Amazing Friends Vol 2’. Quencing his thirst for gaming and technology also meant the release of the ‘Jaguar Skills & His Amazing
Friends Vol 2 Game’ which was available via Facebook and across all tablet and mobile devices.

Jaguar Skills has consistently been a regular festival feature, having forged lasting relationships with a number of high-profile events across the planet. As
ever Jag continued to push boundaries on stage, and as such in 2013 introduced an impressive new 'live' show which comprised visually stunning graphics and immense interactive stage props that have enhanced Jag’s live show experience.
The end of 2013 saw an exciting new development as Jaguar Skills was unveiled as one of the newest DJs to sign to Global, with his first ever “Jaguar Skills Shooooow” launching on Capital XTRA on Friday’s at 6pm on Capital Extra during the ‘MOS Clubbers Guide’, before airing again on Capital FM at
10pm, Saturday.

April 2014 witnessed Jaguar Skills release a special one-off project with him moving away from his normal genre-defying style and embracing his Hip-Hop roots, as he breathed fresh life into legendary US label, Nervous Records classic Hip-Hop back catalogue. The compilation features 65 tracks, remixes
and acappellas from Nervous’ unparalleled Hip-Hop catalogue from pioneering artists such as KRS-One, Black Moon, Mad Lion, Funkmaster Flex, Smif-NWesson, and more. Notably, Jaguar Skills has painstakingly reconstructed and remixed every track that features on the compilation from the original Nervous 24 track master tapes, using the same raw production techniques so as to stay true to the classic versions.

Naturally this piqued interest among Hip Hop circles, and led to Def-Jam coming knocking requesting the mix-master’s skills for their own catalogue. His “30 Years of Def Jam” saw him mix material from the likes of Jay-Z, Redman, Kanye
West, 2Chainz, Nas, Ludacris, DMX, The Roots and many more household names.

2014 also saw Jag continue further down the path to producer with an EP with Chords on Andy C’s legendary RAM Records. Titled “Lust” and released in October, the released featured the vocal talents of Matti Roots, the release to
specialist radio by storm. To compliment the release, the original ninja also turned in a ’60 minutes of RAM’ that premiered on MistaJam’s 1Xtra show, and was later available as a free download. Featuring only music from the revered
imprint’s canaverous back catalogue, the repertoire got the full Jaguar Skills workout.

Amazingly, Jag also found time to sell out three (yep three) KOKO shows in London, whilst also playing a host of leading festivals.

2015 saw Jaguar Skills develop his burgeoning relationship with dance music monoliths The Prodigy. Following supporting them at Ushuaia in 2014, Liam and co have asked him to turn in an official remix for ‘Roadblox’ which was the fourth single from their new album.

As ever Jag is back on the festival circuit with gigs at Parklife, Glastonbury, Bestival, Common People, SW4, Shakedown and Leeds all confirmed... In between all of these Jag will be locked in his secret lab working on more exciting
productions.

So make sure you stay locked in with the rest of the Jaguar Skills army to hear an impending aural assault of every tempo; from Hip Hop to house to drum and bass, and everything in-between.
