DJ JEF K BIOGRAPHY


A native of Paris, Jef K started mixing records in 1992 after spending nine
months in London. His deep, groovy and sexy house sets made him quickly earn
a reputation as one of the fastest rising DJs amongst the french house scene.

Jef has a Saturday residency at the legendary Rex Club since 1998
and is a resident for the "Respect" nights all over the world. He had a monthly residency
at Fuse in Brussels for four years and plays regularly at Robert Johnson in Frankfurt.

He has played festivals such as Les Plages Sonores in Montpellier, Soma,
Lunacy, Xanadu and Magic Garden in Paris. A huge traveler, bringing his skills
to the top clubs in Hong Kong, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Tokyo, Shangai, Sydney,
Melbourne, Auckland, Buenos Aires, Mexico City, Rio De Janeiro, Sao Paulo, Dubai, Bahrein, Capetown, Johannesburg, Durban, Moscow, Llubjana, Sofia, Prague, Budapest, Sarajevo, Krakow, Berlin, Frankfurt, Munich, Hamburg, London, Nottingham, Brighton, Birmingham, Ibiza, Madrid, Barcelona, La Coruna, Lisbon, Porto, Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Eindhoven, Antwerp, Brussels, Miami, New York, San Francisco, Dallas, Atlanta, Chicago and many other cities around the world.

In 1996, Jef worked A & R for the French label Distance. Since then, he has
been responsible for six compilations on the label- five volumes of the "My
House" series, and the third volume of the "French Sessions” series. These
compilations had a great response nationally and internationally,
and were rated “Compilation Of The Year” by magazines such as Coda and Trax.

In 1997, Krypton/ Sony France released Jef’s "Paris-Chicago Express" CD- a
Cajual and Relief compilation. In the same year, he and Cyril K (E-Troneek
Funk) produced a track called "First Step" which appeared on the "Aline Can
