It all started in 1996 - Known only as DJ Joop, a well known figure on the RnB club circuit & resident DJ at one of the biggest and longest running clubs in Melbourne (Twister) on Saturday nights. Also guest DJ'ed at most of the clubs and events in and around Melbourne.

It was only until attending punjabi parties/weddings/events that sore ears were a common theme which was caused by the DJ's that failed at DJ'ing. The idea of delivering a real Bhangra DJ product was born - and it was an imminent takeover.

Born and brought up in the UK - the sounds of Alaap, Heera and Gurdas Mann were always playing in the ears. However, it was the presence of frizzy haired Jazzy B and the raw sounds of Panjabi MC that made Bhangra feel folk yet cool and funky.

The idea of fusing the RnB and dance sounds with Bhangra was a hit - and after playing at a few club gigs and private gigs - DJ Joop became the name and Australia's Most Wanted DJ.

After dramatically changing the movement for the Australian Bhangra industry - calls from Sydney, Brisbane, Perth and Adelaide were common and DJ Joop was off travelling from state to state with his silver case and playing at almost every major event around Australia.
