About Me


WHO?
Hi my name is Michael Hooker and I am on a mission to bring the filth to a dance floor near you. Im all about good solid mixing skills and quality tunes. I play a mixture of electro / breaks / tech / techno / house / old school classics, and everything in between. I have enjoyed playing around the globe alongside some of the top djs out there. I love what I do and love playing to anyone anywhere.
I produce under the names JE2 / Hooker and De Freitas / Michael Hooker, alongside long time friend Elcias De Freitas. We have been fortunate to remix some great bands and are working on some new solo releases for 2008.
For dj bookings or a filthy remix contact me at [email protected]

WHAT THE PRESS SAY...
JE2 strips back 'Rave Dave' and enhances the track with an electro spirit and metallic drums; resulting in a track that sounds very fresh. DISORDER MAGAZINE - DECEMBER 2006
MICHAEL HOOKER JE2 (uk): Er manden bag der super svedige TRASH FASHION "RAVE-DAVE" remix, som også kan høres på hans myspace. KERNFAMILIEN COPENHAGEN - JANUARY 2007
Warboy has been bashing out the Neu Rave anthems all year and this is the cherry on top. It's a rave Dave (JE2 Grade 8 Remix) By Trash Fashion Label /Glare n Dazzle. FAGSONFIRE.NET - JANUARY 2007
Birmingham based DJ/producer Michael Hooker has just thrown down one of the best mixes 2007 has seen. The Jersey native holds a residency @ one of Birmingham’s hottest spots, The Custard Factory & the man is a monster on the decks. The mix has two of JE2’s fantastic remixes of Trash Fashion songs. The stripped down version of ‘Its A Rave Dave’ is a must have & should totally be on your grocery list. Keep an eye on Michael & JE2 in ‘07, they are sure to only get bigger & better. MISSINGTOOF.COM - APRIL 2007
Scram! welcomes Mr Hooker, our new resident! There simply isn't anyone better for the job. Bang on it. SCRAM PARTY - MAY 2007
