Head of the Artizan Music label with production partners Maxime Cescau (together as Poussez) and Andy Touchfingers (Jafar & Touch), long is the musical voyage of Jafar across the electronic seas. A DJ and producer since the early 1990s, Jafar cut his teeth on the UK techno circuit, spinning alongside Carl Cox, Dave Clarke and Billy Nasty at seminal nights like Final Frontier, Tribal Gathering and Eurobeat2000. Today, his releases and remixes amass over 40 on some of the industries’ most respected electronic imprints including HuddTraxx, LoudEast, Hustle Music, Hydraulix, Universal Vibes, Blacksoul and of course Artizan. He has collaborated with Demarkus Lewis, Funky Transport, Marcus Begg and Rich Medina, whilst his Poussez material with Maxime goes from strength to strength, counting Roberto Rodriquez, Nacho Marco and Atjazz amongst the artists interpreting them. Originally a funk drummer before taking to the decks, Jafar is of Polish and Scottish decent. He whole heartedly holds his dear antique-dealing parents to blame for his over-consumption of red wine. He is usually found pogoing behind the DJ booth, grinning like a cheshire cat. He lives in Sweden on a road that translates to ‘Butter Street’, wears lots of stripey jumpers and has a severe Sushi addiction.
