The influences on Jumpin Jack Frost’s career
from the sound system scene of the Caribbean migrants in South London is profound.It is these pioneers who are responsible for his deep love for music. Travel forward to 1985, the DJ we know today as Jumpin’ Jack Frost is born, at the tender age of 18. Frost cut his teeth in the house scene of the 80’s; mixing funk, hip hop and original Breakbeats. Frost soon joins the acid house circuit during its inception, via the renowned Carwash parties, and becomes a prominent presence on the scene alongside other DJ’s, such as Fabio, Grooverider, Bryan Gee and Pete Stewart.
It’s 1989
The rave scene explodes. Frost is one of the earliest exponents of this new youth culture movement. The UK has not experienced a culture change of this magnitude since Punk. The emerging rave scene enables Jumpin’ Jack Frost complete artistic freedom. Frost begins to explore and develop new styles of music, reflecting his personality and influences.
Move onto 1994
Raves have migrated to the club scene. Frost regularly appears at the iconic Brixton venue, The Fridge. He is good company. Some of the biggest names in UK music have performed there, including The Clash, Eurythmics and Grace Jones. He plays alongside Ellis Dee, Paul Trouble Anderson and evil Eddie Richards. Frost goes on to headline many legendary events of the era, including Sunrise and Energy.
As Frost hones his skills,
he builds a fan base for his innovative blend of sounds and artistic expression. Frost is soon gracing the decks in venues as famous as BCM in Magaluf and Johnny Depp’s LA club, The Viper Room. He also makes regular appearances on the Ibiza circuit alongside Carl Cox. Add this to his gig with The Prodigy and Frost’s legendary status in the dance scene is cemented.
Jumpin’ Jack Frost,
in collaboration with fellow DJ Bryan Gee, are the curators of the V Recordings stable. The label enables them to bring through new artist. The likes of Roni Size, DJ Marky and Patife can credit the support of Frost and Bryan as being instrumental in the development of their careers.
‘Leviticus’ (The Burial).
This track has the enviable accolade of being defined as a ‘seminal anthem. Engineered by a young Dillinja and sound mixer Optical. Yolanda, Frost’s baby sister, also features. In 1993 it is nominated for a MOBO award. A testament to Frost’s collaborative ethos.
Jumpin’ Jack Frost will smash any floor with what your patron’s demand; house, drum & bass or jungle.

Defying the confines of a singular genre,
Aziza Jaye dwells in the hills of Sheffield. The UK born Artist, Songwriter and Producer grew up as a ‘Sound system baby’, where she would often see her dad warming up for the night ahead. With music in her blood she willingly took up clarinet and joined an orchestra.
After six years of playing,
she discovered an unearthed passion for singing. With her new found talent she entered and won a local singing competition and music soon became her life. At 17 she attended Manchester Music College to study vocal artistry. This gave her the independence and a growing confidence to chase her musical ambitions. From college she went on to travel the UK and abroad performing to audiences far and wide, sharing a piece of herself with them in each moment and her original music is no different.
With influences stemming from her Jamaican roots in reggae,
dancehall and lovers rock, to a love for rare Soul and Motown with an undeniable passion for Afrobeat, House and Drum and Bass, one can only imagine the soundscape of her mind. She coined the term ‘Genre - less’, to describe what we can only translate as true versatility and flexibility to musically shape shift, effortlessly.
Music is a feeling it helps us heal or reveal.
Life experiences have always brought me back to music as a means of survival. Writing songs gives me a channel to express myself honestly through art. To then have the thought that someone, somewhere out there could relate and feel better is all the motivation I need to reveal my thoughts, my words and well… myself.
I often work with young people facing challenges
in life and I lead with my personal journey to help them find theirs. Giving back is a huge part of my path and I look forward to developing this in the future, for those of the future.
2025 holds some delights
for us watching Aziza Jaye’s story unfold, working with the likes of Nubiyan Twist, Mungos Hifi, K.O.G & Tom Excell her Debut release will be one to watch!
