Jake-Tech Bio
Hello Guys my name is Jake Barker (Jake-Tech), A House DJ/Producer from Leeds UK & A life-long dance music fan!
I grew up surrounded by my Dad’s wax collection which is very much alive today & his knowledge of dance music which has helped me progress and build on my own knowledge and my passion for the whole dance music scene!
I Studied Music Production at Kirklees College and I also went to School Of Electronic Music in Manchester where I got a real feel for the scene and I started feeling confident enough with my progression for me then to start making House Music & build up connections within the industry.
I built a good relationship with a producer from Canada, Calgary her name is Daina Riley (Badaina) & we started working on music together with a good understanding of each other and we have had releases on 1980 Recordings
I have also built up a good working relationship with a very close friend that I met in my college days and his name is Paul McDermott (Paul HG) & we have gone on to produce music together for record labels such as 1980 Recordings, Supernova’s Blackboard Label & Bosh Recordings.
My music has had support from the online radio station that is HouseRadio.Digital & backing from Dan McKie of 1980 Recordings, Demuir of Hot Creations, Paul C of Moon Harbour Recordings & Supernova from their own label Blackboard!
I have done podcasts for Data Transmission, Boxed Music & Detroitnitz to name a few. I have also had guest mix slots on HouseRadio.Digital
I also run two of my own podcasts with Paul HG called Eye To Eye Radio & Jake-Tech / Paul HG & Friends on Data Transmission Radio that showcases House Music & Drum & Bass from artists that are well known or who are up & coming talent!
I have also had the honour of playing my 1st ever DJ gig at Ibiza Rocks Bar for Griff & his party brand “Griffs Gaff”
