Hailed as a “music guru” by Rolling Stone and cited among the “world’s Top DJ’s” by The New York Times, J.PERIOD’s vast musical repertoire bridges cultures, generations and styles with innovative blends and seamless transitions. As Music Supervisor for the Brooklyn Nets’ inaugural season at Barclays Center, J.PERIOD’s signature sound has become the defining soundtrack for the franchise, and set a new standard for the role of music in the NBA arena. A 10-year veteran in moving large crowds, J.PERIOD has served as official Tour DJ for artists including Lauryn Hill, Q-Tip, The Roots, and international icon K’NAAN, performing at venues from NYC’s Central Park Summerstage to Johannesburg’s Coca-Cola Dome. His production resume boasts collaborations with Grammy-winners Kanye West, Common, John Legend, and Mary J. Blige, and his “audiodocumentary” mixtape series – remixing everyone from Bob Marley to Bob Dylan – has prompted music icon Ahmir “Questlove” Thompson (The Roots, Late Night with Jimmy Fallon) to label J.PERIOD “the most creative mixtape producer of all-time.”
