JAMRoKi started his interest in all things music on the Isle of Wight, attending Bestival, Isle of Wight Festival, Rhythmtree Festival, and Wonderfest - hanging out with The Plastic Mermaids and helping on a music video (look out for the clay “tree penguin” in Taxonomy), dancing on stage with Bez of the Happy Mondays, meeting Jaguar Skills, and DJ’ing back to back with the island’s very own Our Girl G. It was on the Isle of Wight where JAMRoKi first met Rascal Raves’ Katie and Bestival’s Rob Da Bank.
