Is Judge Jules one of the busiest guys around? quite possibly. Between Running one of Ibiza biggests nights Judgement Sundays, Being one of the top DJ’s on Radio 1 and playing at night clubs all around the world we dont know how he finds time to do anything else. However luckily he did find the time to have a quick word with us!

Can you tell us a bit about yourself and how you got into DJ’in
I started DJ’ing in the late 80’s early 90’s, it was at a time when late night
clubbing was a taboo and the house scene was really beginning to take off. I saw a
niche in London to promote “Illegal” raves with my friends and slowly my fan base
began to grow. At the same time I was very much involved with pirate radio whilst I
was at university in London. My first big break was on Kiss in the early 90’s then in
1997 I moved over to BBC Radio 1 and never looked back…

How would you describe your sound?
Chunky techno influenced trance with the groove of house and the odd vocal thrown
in…

Whats the best event you have ever played at?
It’s difficult to say really, the events that really make the hairs on the back of
my neck stand on end are the big Radio 1 outside broadcasts like Creamfilds/Global
Gathering/R1 in Ibiza

What makes Ibiza so special?
I have a house in Ibiza so saying it feels like home is a bit of a cliché.. My weekly
club night Judgement Sundays is for sure my highlight of the year! The atmosphere is
truly amazing…

For anyone who hasnt been to Ibiza what advice would you give?
Come with an open mind and be prepared to party!

What can we expect from you in 2011?
I’ve recently been signed to Spinnin and have released two singles in the past 6
months with them, both made it in the top 5 on Beatport. You will be hearing a new
single from me very soon and ofcourse Judgement Sundays is just around the corner.

For young dj’s what advice would you give them?
It’s all about making tunes these days, for sure that is the best way to get noticed.
Setting up a home studio is relatively cheap and experimentation is the way forward.

What are your top tracks at the moment?
There’s a great track I got sent through this week by Swanky Tunes & Hard Rock Sofa,
it’s called Feedback and it sits perfectly in the middle ground between House &
Trance.
