Jason Nawty

From humble beginnings with only one belt-drive turntable and a tape recorder, he learned to scratch records at the tender age of 14 in the mid-’80s. Since then he’s played all over the world and produced some of the finest hard house anthems on the UK scene such as “Vengeance” and “Rush” with his biggest selling track in 2001 “Real DJ’s” shifting over 2400 copies on vinyl. He has been on line-up’s alongside Tidy boys, Kutski, Skol, Anne Savage, Mauro Picotto, Lisa Pinup, Phil Reynolds, Paul Van Dyke, Lisa Lashes, Andy Farley, Rachel Auburn, Slipmatt and many more at promotions such as:-​

Sundissential, Frantic, Twisted, Eden, BerZerK, Good Greef, Sunny Side Up, X-Static, Cheeky Little Monkey, Afterssential, Immersed, Crash, The Monastery, RadioActive and lots more.

He has had records signed to HTE, Rebirth, Tidy Trax, 12 Inch Thumpers, Frantic digital, Shock records, Defiant Digital Records, BTN, Barbwire, High-Five and his own label “Nawty Loopz” ​​

He is currently producing both hard dance and trance and collaborating with some fantastic producers such as Mobi-DD, NG Rezonance, Matt OD and Direct Drive ​ 2021 after 15 years of retirement saw him hit the top spot in the toolbox charts with his track “unlocked”, and also made the number 1 spot, across all 31 genres in the Top 100 new releases on the Beatport website with his collab “Rise Up”… something that no other Hard dance producer or label has managed since his return. This reflects his engineering skill, attention to detail, ear for the right sound, his passion and drive, and willingness to keep learning and moving forward.

The same can be said for his DJ sets too, energetic, crowd-pleasing, dance floor euphoria is always his aim. He says….

“I don’t like to pigeon hole my sets, I like to have an open mind and my eyes on the crowd, so that I can take them where they lose it most, it could be techy, bouncy, vocally, trancey, or dirty, or simply all of them. I feel the crowds energy and let them inspire me.”
