Facts About Jeremy Sylvester:
My father was in a successful disco band The JALN BAND in
the early eighties managed by Pete Waterman.
Biography:
Jeremy has had a musical background since the moment he was
born on the 3rd July 1973. His first encounters were through
his father. A member of a successful disco band J.A.L.N band
in the early eighties.
In addition to the early influences of his father, artists
mainly of American origin such as Chic, Chaka Khan, Diana
Ross, Delegation, Kool and the Gang etc were also an inspiration
to Jeremy.
Jeremy's first productions were recorded in his fathers studio
in Handsworth Birmingham. Initially producing mainly "Rave
music" inspired by reggae. Jeremy gradually ventured
into "drum n bass" which led him to start a record
label in 1994, with his father called Dubtronix. This label
produced two highly successful tracks "screwface"
and "fantasy".
The not so obvious stage in Jeremy's musical career was to
become a DJ. His reasons were, however, so that he could once
again approach the music at a street, were he would get a
direct reaction from the crowds he was playing to. He involved
himself with local pirate radio stations, playing deep NY
house music, which led towards a successful path playing at
many clubs around the world.
Unable to satisfy his eagerness to further his career in music,
Jeremy contacted Nice n Ripe records and started to produce
tracks on their label under various names: SLY, DEEP COVER,
GROOVE CONNECTION, G.O.D, SYLVESTER amongst others.
Jeremy moved to London and settled in quickly, going to all
the major House and Garage clubs so that he could get a vibe
from the crowds. The pirate scene in London is much larger
than the rest of England and play mainy House and Garage so
|Jeremy listened carefully to what the DJ's were playing and
produced music to that sound. At Nice n Ripe, Jeremy formed
production/remix outfit "CLUB ASYLUM", now enjoying
success for remixing some major recording artist's which include:
ALL SAINTS, JODECI, KC& JOJO, THE DON, SHOLA AMA, DIONNE
RAKEEM, ANOTHER LEVEL, RAY RUFFIN, KENNY THOMAS, DENADA, LYNSEY
MOORE, RASHEEN PATERSON, GINUWINE, AMIRA, BARBARA TUCKER,
LUTRICIA MCNEAL, MAIDA MYLES, MARVIN AND TAMERA AND DAWN TALLMEN
amongst others, yet still keeping an underground edge to his
sound.
Jeremy was signed to but still producing records for Azuli
records , the most influencial indepentdant dance label in
Europe, enjoying success under the name "ELECTRONICA"
with a recent CLUB HIT "Coke, Sex and Drugs" reaching
number 14 in the Cool cuts chart and another track just recently
been signed to Telstar's dance label Multiply records, "Strangled"
a remake of Stranglers hit record "Peaches", which
has already been tipped to HIT the British chart's this summer…………
An Electronica album is to follow.
Also Class A who are responsible for remixing many artist's
which include EDDIIE GRANT, GAMBAFREAKS, DJ DISCIPLE, 10CC,
BRITTALIC'S, GOODFELLA'S amongst many others, as well as productions
under his own name.
Jeremy has also signed a single deal as "PURE ORANGE"
for ROGER SANCHEZ's new label "STEALTH" Records
in conjunction with DEFECTED RECORDS. The track has already
gained NUMBER ONE position in the COOL CUTS charts and NUMBER
TWO position in the BUZZ CHARTS twice in the space of 2 months.
A release date is set around July- Aug 2003, with remix's
by FATBOY SLIM, SCUMFROG, PARTY ONE, and ROGER SANCHEZ. Look
out for forth coming P.A's around the world. An album will
follow in the near future.
Jeremy is also working very closely with singer/songwriter
VICTORIA HORN responsible for writing the massive single "Days
gone by" by DEATH IN VEGAS and RUI DE SILVA as well as
writing for Kylie Minouge and Danni Minouge etc. The outfit
is called "FEELA" and are right now writing an album
together.
Jeremy's career in the music business has progressed step
by step. He has been influenced from a very early age and
is now a successful and well respected producer/remixer. Claiming
recent recognition for his Uk top 40 hit by Groove Connection
2 "club Lonely", released via XL records, his remix
work under G.O.D and as "Club Asylum", now renamed
"ASYLUM", also enjoying success with their recent
UK top twenty remix/production of "Kc & Jo"
(tell me its real).With Dj work all through the summer in
Ibiza and all over the world, Jeremy's determination to always
improve his work and never be complacent he surely has a long
and successful future in the world of music……
Jeremy has now set up an Online record shop, "Urbandubz.com"
which will be selling all genre's of dance music 12"
vinyl and CD albums/mix compilations worldwide via mailorder
and MP3 Downloads.
