Jason Eli's music covers breaks, funk, reggae, House, Garage &
good grooves. He's remixed and produced major artists including
Whitney Houston and Mos Def. Born in London, Eli's big break happened after sending
his DJ mix cassette to Ministry of Sound, and he was immediately made their Saturday night resident DJ. Always
on a journey for new sounds Eli formed Albino
Productions with top UK producer Amar Saeed, with a mission to
fuse eastern beats with electronica. They played weekly at “Swaraj”
(based in London’s seminal Blue note club) which was one of the
first clubs to play fresh World music that could come from both New
York and New Delhi. Jason Eli was heavily involved in the nurturing of the UK
Garage and UK Urban scenes during the late 1990’, producing and
remixing five UK national top 40 hits in that time.
