CAPITAL J still is one of the fastest rising jungle DJ's in the history of the legendary Canadian D&B scene. At thirteen, trained strictly as a battle DJ he started dominating London Ontario's foremost scratch competitions, where he remained undefeated for five years straight. When he moved to Toronto in 97, he instantly took the D&B scene by storm, Scratching records with his elbows, feet and chin all while introducing the world to his (now infamous) style of jump-up head crushing D&B with an arsenal of home grown Dub-plates & remixes.  Within two months he was crowned DJ of the month by TRIBE magazine, who followed things up by releasing the magazines top selling mix tape ever from a Feature Dj. J currently headlines Toronto's parties as well as venues all across North America and recently Europe and UK, which has earned him a massive hardcore cult following of party goers who feed off the energy he gives off his sets. Over the past years J has been strengthening his jungle production skills to match his amazing visual DJ sets, which keep him on top of the scene and always a crowd favorite.  Over the years, J has been releasing his hidden gems on Wikkid Records (Montreal/Paris) Starting with such floor mashers as The Throw Down, Niagara Falls featuring MC Fats, Bumbaclot & Mr. Mister, featuring hip-hop all-star (his lil bro) Ron B. 2003 WIKKID Recs Launched the Camouflage Series which contained 4 singles, Jackmode, Whos Dat, Beat Boxin and Lock Jaw to name a few that mashed up the globe with an amazing response from Europe & US also receiving a lot of play from most of the UKs top Djs plus BBCs 1xtra and D&B mix shows everywhere.
