Biography of Jay-B |  | | Real name / | Jay-B |
Jay-B was born in Amsterdam on the 15th of May 1975 as Jermain Breidel.
His huge passion for music already started at a young age. Even before he’s a DJ, he already bought lots of (House) records, searched for new music and could always be found at the clubs.
Watching his good friends Real El Canario and Melly Mel spin and produce, Jay-B was getting more and more inspired and motivated to get into the scene. They taught him how to spin and a new talent was born. Influenced by both House (Melly Mel) and Hiphop (Real el Canario), Jay-B doesn’t want to stick to one style. He rather keeps his sets as varied as possible.
In 2005, when the owner of Hotel Arena asked him to DJ in the restaurant, his career started off. It wouldn’t take long before people discovered his talent.
Soon after his first performance at Hotel Arena he’s been asked to become the resident DJ of the famous ‘Sappig’ nights in the Sinners.
At this moment Jay-B has already rocked every high-quality-club in Amsterdam. He played his eclectic sets of House, R&B, Classics and Hip-Hop at venues as diverse as Panama, The Zebra, Sinners, The Mansion, Hotel Arena, Club Rain and Escape. By now Jay-B had become one of the most in-demand DJs in Amsterdam and is getting more and more popular in the rest of Holland. Jay-B is the resident DJ of one of the hottest clubs in Amsterdam: The Zebra. Besides that, he is also the resident of Sappig, Rich, Samsobeats and his own concept Eclectic Fantastic. Jay-B knows exactly how to tear up the dancefloors and sets the clubs on fire with his playful and energetic dj sets. There is much more to be expected from this new talent!
