JIMPY – 14 years DJ / Producer www.jimpy.co.uk / www.clubitm.co.uk As featured on Paul van Dyk and Sasha Worldwide released mix compilations….. Jimpy, (32) began clubbing at the tender age of just 15 stumbling across the ‘Star Club’ now Eden on Ibiza. From that night on Jimpy never looked back, attending clubs such as ‘Shellys’ in Stoke on Trent, (home of the legendary Sasha) DJ SS’s weekly event ‘Total Kaos’ at the Starlight 2001 in Leicester, The Eclipse in Coventry and raves such as Dreamscape, Vision and Amnesia House all across the UK. On moving to Cardiff in 1993 he became the resident DJ of what was to become quite possibly the most famous and by far the most ‘rockin’ club in Wales – The Hip’po Club!

Sasha, Digweed, Oakenfold, Sven Vath, Sister Bliss, John Kelly, Laurent Garnier to name just a few…. The Hip’po really was the place to be! In 1996 Jimpy decided to move on from the Hip’po to take a break from ‘everything’ and after a year once again found himself gracing the decks of clubs not only in the local South Wales scene, but was enjoying success at clubs around the World. In 1997 he entered the UK Ministry of Sound mixing championships and came 2nd and then in 2000 was voted 54th best DJ in the World by DJ Magazine. If that was not enough, Jimpy went on to launch his own successful weekly club nights – Enter the Dragon @ Vision, (launched Feb 11th 2000 with Paul Oakenfold) and then later ROAR. He was often seen on clubbing channels and programmes such as MTV, Rapture and Club@Vision with his partners in crime Andy and James Mitchell of the ‘Crazy Club’ – London Astoria.
