From a young age Jake started Dj'ing using his uncles mk3 technics in the attic of his grandmothers house in Cavan. Mixing songs from the mid 90's and early 2000's, beginning his passion and love for music.

Jake's music was influenced by his love for many different genre's. When asked what his favourite genre of music was, he replied 'I don't have one'. He went on to further say 'sometimes i like to kick back and listen to the blues, other times i listen to Hip-Hop, Rock, Reggae, i like all types of music and i try to incorporate this into my production's. May it be Hip-Hop drum influences, rock guitar licks or the percussion of reggae, all aspects of music has unique sounds that inspire me'.

Jake learned his craft by studying Music Production and Music Technology within Ireland and Scotland. Earning two degree's along the way. Throughout these years Jake worked as a Live Sound Engineer in 'The Spirit Store', Dundalk, Ireland. Where he worked with bands such as 'The Coronas' and 'The Villagers'.
