Meet the Business Owner

Jules D.

Business Owner

A passion for travel and music has taken Jules all over the world. From 2003 to 2008 he relocated to Kuala Lumpur where he set up DJ/​Producer courses at SAE (School of Audio Engineering). During this time he also spent a year in Australia completing his degree in Recording Arts.

Returning from Kuala Lumpur in 2008, Jules settled back into the London music scene, primarily working as a production tutor and music producer, focusing on recording and producing live musicians, which has helped add an organic angle to his own productions.

In the studio, Jules has covered many bases from Funk through to Detroit Techno, pushing musical boundaries while maintaining an old school approach to Production.
