JINX, duo Dubz and Jogi, hail from, Manchester and have been on the DJ circuit for over 5 years. Their aim; to bring a fresh, new, diverse sound to the Asian music scene. The sound they describe as British Asian music, fused with urban and experimental made for all ages and for everyone to enjoy.
They both grew up as childhood friends and a few years ago, decided that this was a dream that they definitely wanted to pursue. Still young, both only 24 years old, these two men have enough determination and drive to be able to develop and grow both personally and musically.
Dubz, the more relaxed of the two, had a keen interest in music from a very young age constantly participating in various musical activities and workshops. His musical influences range from a different number of genres as he grew up listening to the likes of Oasis, Mary J Blige, AR Rahman more recently Adnan Sami and Punjabi Folk music.
Jogi, the hyper of the two, has been inspired by a wide range of artists and music from the likes of RD Burman, Nusrat Fateh Ali khan, Brian Adams & Madonna, all these artists and many more have made Jogi’s passion grow and inspired him to make music himself.
Jinx have played alongside some great names in music and have been heavily influenced by this. Jinx’s knowledge of the Asian music scene and undeterred desire to learn how to make music has inspired them to take this love further. “We want to continue making British Asian Music as the scene is evolving steadily and would like to move into other markets like Bollywoodâ€.
Having released two albums ‘Culture Shock’ and ‘Jus Jinx’ consisting of hit songs ‘Gal Sun,’ Punjab Nachda and ‘Dil Da Jaani’ to name but a few. They held the number one spot all around the country in all charts at the same time with ‘Dil Da Jaani,’ JINX have been the biggest and the most successful breakthrough act in the last four years in the UK.
