Jillionaire
With over fifteen years of experience, the Jillionaire has created a unique sound which mashes indie dance and big room house with the caribbean rhythms of soca and dancehall.
In 2009 the Jillionaire stole the show at London’s Notting Hill Carnival with his unique Tropical Bass sound. He went on to tour with Major Lazer across the United Kingdom, France, and the Netherlands.
In 2010 Jillionaire travelled to the four corners of the world, kicking off the year at New Zealand’s WOMAD Festival, followed by gigs across the UK and Europe. He coordinated Chicken n Beer (now in its second successful year), the first ever Tropical Bass party at Winter Music Conference/ Miami Music Week, and his No Shirt, No Shoes tour capped off a hectic yet successful year, taking him across North America, from the Carolinas to Texas to California. He has released a number of remixes and original tracks, honing his skills alongside production partners Richie Beretta (NYC) and Fellow (Amsterdam).
In 2011, “The Only Way Is Up” as he prepares to launch Feel Up Recordings, a new home for Tropical Bass and related dance music, delivering releases from a number of collaborators he has worked with over the last year and a half, stretching from Japan to the Netherlands and beyond. He’s a corespondent for a number of blogs including Mad Decent and Okayplayer’s Large Up and has appeared on Making Tracks, a documentary by National Geographic Music.
