The Jet Project are Belfast duo Timmy Stewart & John McIver. They're resident djs at the Stiff Kitten and Shine and therefore know a thing or two about discerning house and techno grooves. Their production outfit was formed after a few back to back dj sessions led the guys to realise they both shared the same love of solid dance floor electronics. The next logical step, to take all their influences and experience as djs and bring them to the studio.
The main aim is to generate solid house and techno tracks that can be dropped in peak time sets by djs the world over. Their debut “Time Flies” and “Shudder” E.Ps were picked up by Silicone Soul's Darkroom Dubs imprint and have literally been raising the roof everywhere they’ve been played to date with dj support coming from the likes of Andrew Weatherall, Francois K and Laurent Garnier (the latter even used Time Flies in his recent Dj mix for Tim Sweeney's Beats In Space Show).
The guys also compiled and mixed the Northern Irish cover mount cd for IDj mag and their "Find Yourself Tonight" track featured on Murray Richardson & Stuart Patterson's Rebel Waltz mix for Dj magazine. They've put their deft remix touches to the Spirals "We Have Control", Scoper & Bubba's "I'm Satisfied", Harold Heath's "Rubber Back", Fergie's "Anon", Two Lone Swordsmen's "Shack 54" (which was featured on John Digweed's latest Transitions Mix compilation for Renaissance and led to a guest mix for John's Kiss FM show of the same name), as well as new Soma and Darkroom signing's Mirror Music, Manta Electrica and Matt Playford's Analogue Tear track for Paul Woolford's Intimacy imprint.
More recently they released two follow up E.Ps on Darkroom Dubs entitled "The Lions Roar" and "Barrio" as well as the double A-sider of Saberforce & Pulse for Dublin's Acii-tone which all received a lot of support and radio play from the international dj community with "Barrio" gaining the tune of the month accolade in DMC's update magazine. Soon to be followed by the remix EP, Jet Project Remixed Pt 1 and a sampler for their debut album entitled "Heads In The Clouds" which gets a full release on Darkroom/Soma in Summer 09. They rocked the foundations of Slam's Pressure night at the Arches in Glasgow with their recent guest dj slot and their Jet Project monthly club night at the Stiff Kitten in Belfast is literally going from strength to strength and providing the opportunity to invite some of their favourite dj's to Belfast to join them on a regular basis. With fresh material just signed to Steve Lawler's wicked Viva imprint the Jet Project's reputation is set to soar in 2009. Show less
