Jax Jones Facts
- It was his Nigerian stepfather who had introduced Jax Jones to the world of music via the afrobeat and rap genres. He also grew up listening to music from the hip hop, pop, R&B, and gospel genres.
- He had studied classical guitar from a very young age and had taken up beat-making at the age of 15 after discovering the digital audio workstation Cubase on a friend’s desktop.
- He started his career by performing at open mic clubs in and around London. He eventually began collaborating with a local music producer and the duo worked on releases for British rappers like Big Narstie.
- While he was studying at Brunel University London, he used to make 2-hour trips daily to reach his studio, posting beats regularly on the social networking service MySpace. After his graduation, he rented a studio in Sydenham (a district of south-east London) and bought a workstation to hone his craft.
