Nijmegen is the home base of Jayton, it is within the Nijmegen dance scene a welcome guest and not unknown. In six years, his style evolved into a deep and warm Chigaco and Detroithouse sound, with a touch of acid and dubtechno. He always tries to find his own way in the music and that is usually a bit deeper than what others go.
The love for dance music began at the age of 10 when he heard for the first time heard the music from De La Soul, A Tribe Called Quest and Tony Scott. At an age of 14 could the music not be hard enough and he discovered the Dutch hardcore scene. After his first festival as a visitor in 1996, he was completely sold and traveled across the country for parties, to end in 1999 at Sporthallen Zuid Amsterdam during Shocker his first techno party. Here he heard for the first time how great techno was thanks to acts like Remy and Green Velvet. Shortly afterwards he visited the Planet Rose evenings at Doornroosje in Nijmegen, where he still is a loyal visitor to.
In late 2001 he bought his first turntables and mixer to practice in his bedroom and started to collect vinyl. In the beginning it was especially hard techno provided by the speakers around him. Over time, he discovered the wonderful world of Detroittechno and focusing entirely on that. Since that time, his style goes deeper and warmer. In 2004 he is still mainly oriented to the Detroittechno but more from artist from Europe, as Vince Watson, Aril Brikha and Djinxx, they brought their exquisite melodies for him. Since 2007 he is going to play more music that feels good about the whole body, by deep and heavy bass lines. This is increasingly the direction he went in the house especially the sound of U.S.A. soil. The records that will be played by Jayton now days are from artists like DJ Jus-ed, Patrice Scott, Abe Duque, Blake Baxter, Lerosa etc.
Jayton's first performances were at parties that were organized by friends. In 2004 he participated in the Planet Rose DJ contest for the first time he played at a location that run its traces in the Dutch techno scene for many years and where he comes several years as a visitor. That is the dream of every novice dj, but it was for him a great disaster. The nerves and those “oh-so-fine master” of the djm 600 set a disaster. Fortunately he got a another change from Darko Esser to play on other Planet Rose evenings to prove his own talent and made it finally for the first time in 2006 at the mainstage. He stood there as warming-up for Isis and Djinx. Since that time, he has played at various other parties rotated in Nijmegen as Drift, Deeplay, Mood Elevator and Lust. His best action so far is the latest Planet Rose of the 2007 season where Michael Mayer became father and that Jayton with Monokreck back to back and Aril Brikha 2 hours Live had to replace him. What was that one hell of a night. Recently runs Jayton as resident on the monthly Progressive City at the Billabong in Nijmegen. He will be here once every two months on a Thursday evening to spread his musical preferences.
