Artist description Ambient (mainly) instrumentals dealing with love and hate, jealousy and trust. Ah yes! - the old story... Never quite at home these can be unsettling pieces of music. Sitting somewhere in the ambient/trip-hop field they may be not quite like anything you'll have heard before... (On the other hand, maybe you'll disagree but please listen and enjoy...)

Artist History Working alone in a small damp cave inhabited only by small furry creatures and banks of electronic equipment, I have been concentrating on writing music for film, TV and multimedia.

Press Reviews "Listening to J1's music is like taking a trip down the lane of currently popular dance forms: Trip-Hop, House and dreamy breakbeats are all represented here. This is good, because this artist is a talented and imaginative arranger who uses samples, voices, and, of course, ever-present beats to good effect. Will Lerner (Listen.com)"(Jon's) hopelessly downtrodden electronic style invokes Portishead's trademark style. Roughly textured beats carry each brooding melodic blend. Melissa Piazza (Listen.com)
