(Jay Tipa)

A DJ with over 30 years experience!!


JT loves playing a wide variety of musical genres, namely Old Skool House, Deep House, Soul, RnB and Hip Hop, and has gone from using Vinyl to CD's to Digital, and still uses all three today.


JT started buying vinyl back in 1984 and purchased his first turntables, 'Technics 1210's' at Christmas '85. His influences came from the London Pirate Radio Stations - 'LWR', 'Sunrise' and 'Kiss' . It was also around this time that he purchased an FM Transmitter from Tandy Electronics and started broadcasting to his Estate in Bow, London and knew when people had tuned in when they answered his call over the radio by flashing their house lights (long before pagers and mobile phones!!).


He played his first gig - a 21st Birthday party, and loved it - so did the crowd. He got a few more bookings from that gig, with his very first actual 'paying' gig in 1988, aged at just 19 (Bottles of Holsten Pills don't pay the bills). He and his DJ Partner, Matt began playing out every weekend. It was in 1989 that JT & Matt started playing in Fox's club in Amhurst Rd, London. Not long after Fox's, JT & Matt started on Fantasy FM; with JT playing 8-10pm four nights a week & Fridays was joined by Matt when they played midnight-8am, after they'd finished DJ'ing in a local Pub at 11pm.


To earn a little extra cash and gain valuable experience, JT and Matt created 'Infinity Mobile Disco' and were very busy doing this plus the Pubs, Clubs and Radio all around East London. In 1990 they joined Centreforce FM, with a regular weekly slot, continuing with Infinity Disco and the local pubs and clubs every weekend. JT and Matt eventually went their separate ways and In the year 2000, JT was joined by Tracy when they became 'Infinity discokaraoke', which was very successful. JT handed the London Scene over to Tracy when he moved away in 2004, but carried on with 'Infinity discokaraoke in and around Essex. He has now stopped playing out and concentrates on playing on Internet Radio www.infinitytunes.co.uk & infinitytunes Facebook and creating mixes for his Mixcloud Page

DJ RICH WINTERS

Music styles- funky house/deep house/tech house

I LOVE HOUSE 😃


He grew up in Northern Ireland with a love for music at a very young age listening to his two older brothers playing decks at home. His first set of turntables were Soundlab belt drives which his brother gave him; and still to this day he has nightmares about those decks LOL.

As time went on, his love for music continued and at the age of 16, he purchased a set of Technics 1200’s and a Vestax mixer. The first record He ever bought was Placebo Special K - Timo Maas mix and so the journey began.......

His favourite DJ’s were - Sander Kleinenberg, Luke Neville, Col Hamilton, Dave Seamon, Timo Maas, Sasha, Seb Fontaine, Peace Division and The Shapeshifters.

Clubs played in: Dempseys Belfast, Bar 7 & The Boom Boom Room Bangor, The Coach Banbridge.

He took a break from DJ'ing 10 years ago to have a family, and then 3 years back was diagnosed with Multiple sclerosis and had to give up work. To keep him busy and his mind on more positive things, his wife encouraged him to get back on the decks - and so the journey began again 😃


Current activities: monthly residency in O'Reillys Banbridge, Infinitytunes internet Radio station & local parties.

DJ MIKEY LAMPS Originally from north London, Mikey Lamps grew up listening to whatever Pirate Station was going in the early 90's and soon got a passion for the vibe. He turned 18 in ‘96 and discovered the ever evolving Garage scene in the clubs around London and was hooked!! He started collecting vinyl from then on and at 20yrs old ended up on a plane to Tenerife with nothing but a bag of vinyl. He travelled round the islands of Spain for the next 5 years playing in the small bars occasionally whilst having fun in the big clubs. He travelled back to Manchester in 2002 where he took a break from dj’ing for the next 15 years.

After going oldskool raving at clubs like Sankys and Bowlers in Manchester he decided he missed mixing too much and started up again. A year or so later his passion for vinyl had blossomed and he now has an extensive collection of oldskool Garage tunes from the early 90's onwards, which he is sharing with the listeners through Infinitytunes. Also now starting to use Mp3 & Traktor

He is one of the most charming deejays in the business and a true gentleman. A twenty year veteran of the California Dance scene, Kid Loose established himself in the late 90's by promoting and playing underground parties, club events and raves. While performing among some of the most talented deejays in the San Francisco Bay Area, his energy behind the decks and in his song selection, allowed him to stand out in a land overflowing with skilled performers. Kid Loose worked his way up from opening or closing sets at Home Base and similar rave venues, to prime time slots at almost every dance club in the bay area. He held residencies at Ruby Skye, Space 550, Club X in San Francisco as well as several other venues around the Northern California area. Simultaneously during this period, he was also active in producing and co-producing large scale raves and club nights from SF to Sacramento.

Kid Loose then took his energy to the airwaves of the Bay Area. Starting at a local college radio station (KCRH 89.9FM), he made enough noise with his talents that he earned an opportunity at the then, up and coming, dance station Energy 92.7FM (2005-2009). Never afraid of hard work, Kid Loose worked his way up from the street team to become a mixing DJ for Friday and Saturday night slots. That turned into a daily mix-show, an on-air jock position as well as becoming the Production Director for the station. During these times, Kid Loose found himself rubbing elbows with the industry elite, sharing stages and performing with the likes of Lady Gaga, Cyndi Lauper, Hilary Duff, Kaskade, Kelly Rowland and many others. His diversity lead him to play at the finish line for Bay to Breakers as well as the after party, in front of sold out crowds for Warriors games at Oracle Arena on multiple occasions, The SF HRC Gala, Academy of Friends Gala in SF as well as several SF Pride parades and street concerts.

It was also during his time at Energy 92.7 that Kid Loose released two fully licensed mix compilations for Ultra Records, "I'm a Looser" as well as the station's third installment of the "Energy 92.7FM Presents Pure Dance" series, with the latter debuting at #18 on the San Francisco Billboard charts. Energy 92.7FM would go on to earn the award, "Best Dance Music Station in the USA" for multiple years in a row, at the International Dance Music Awards.

Fast forward to today. After a long hiatus, Kid loose has rediscovered his life's passion. He is currently On-Air Monday thru Friday on JustHouseMusic.co.uk and s a Resident DJ for the Venom Soundship in California.
