Coming from a rich and diverse musical lineage, J’s music embodies the principles of music culture that can only have been catalyzed by his Chicago upbringing.
J's music has received critical acclaim and support from Pete Tong, with his track ‘Robotic Warriors’ being featured on the respected DJ’s Radio 1 Playlist (BBC) ‘Bedroom Bedlam’ UK segment at the young age of 14. Fast forward to today and J has performed at venues across Chicago and shows no signs of slowing down.
When DJing, J flies the flag for 4/4 dance music across multiple genres. His DJing style is often cited as a hybrid of house, deep house, disco, and techno. Owing to a stint in England as a child, Jamian also incorporates Garage Music into his sets as well. He is influenced by the pioneers who helped shape the sound into what it is today, some from his hometown of Chicago such as Frankie Knuckles, Larry Heard and Todd Terry to name just a few.
When producing, J is very versatile across genres. He also makes music under his real name "Jamian" @jamian_music, in which he incorporates many styles of music into his songs. With Quincy Jones, Timbaland, Kaytranada being some of his biggest influences, J is no stranger to variety in his music.
J is currently featured in NPR as one of the top 5 DJ's to watch from Chicago and is currently setting the wheels in motion for his upcoming releases which is set to drop in the near future, and will be followed by many releases later this year and beyond.
Disclosure’s “When a Fire Starts to Burn” collides with Will Smith’s “Pretty Girls” in this blazing house mashup from producer-DJs J-Lektro and @AriBradshaw. Sparked by Artist @MichaelChristmas, who urged “bump it to 1.25×,” the bootleg slams chunky four-on-the-floor kicks, hypnotic vocal chops, and Fresh Prince swagger into a peak-hour club anthem

"Would You Stay" is more than just a UK Garage track; it's a deep dive into the complexities of a wavering relationship. Through its poignant lyrics, "I've been here crying on my own for days, thinking bout how I'm gonna get you to stay," the song captures the universal struggle of holding onto love that's slipping away. It's a musical embodiment of the emotional tug-of-war between longing for someone to stay and facing the possibility of letting go. This track resonates with anyone who's navigated the turbulent waters of love and decision-making. Its compelling beats and heartfelt narrative invite you to reflect on your own experiences of love, loss, and the hope that lingers in between.

"Gator Shoes" draws inspiration from 70's blaxploitation movies such as Super Fly and The Mack, where pimps were always seen flashing a pair of freshly shined alligator shoes on their feet. J-Lektro propels listeners into a landscape of snaking synths and modulated kicks that snap together in succinct patterns, infusing super fly groove into an oscillation of bass and galactic beats. With distorted vocals and a Claude Von Stroke vocal sample coalescing, J-Lektro manages to bring forth a tech-house beauty sophisticated in nature and slick in execution.
