Mr. Jones Artist Bio

There are at least two artists that go by the name Mr. Jones

– DJ Mr. Jones (real name: Jonas Uittenbosch), a techno producer from Haarlem, the Netherlands.

Mr Jones, born in Amsterdam in 1981 under the name of Jonas Uittenbosch, was always surrounded by music. He played some instruments during his childhood and grew up listening to jazz, untill he discovered housemusic and bought his own turntables once he was a teenager.
There aren’t many styles Mr Jones didn’t try: from hardcore to dubstep, from electro to hiphop. He even had a gigg in Bitterzoet as Hiphop DJ. “But once I saw and heard Dave Clarke in 2003, I was hooked on techno.” He was still discovering techno music, but he already was asked to perform at parties troughout the Netherlands, Germany and Austria.
But spinning records wasn’t enough for him. Mr Jones started to produce tracks. In the last couple of years his main focus was to find his own sound. “That’s why I didn’t feel the urge to DJ a lot anymore. I really made a giant leap after Ritzi Lee gave me some advice.” He started to leak some of his tracks on the internet and it didn’t take long before these got picked up. “It really was mindblowing when I heard that Dave Clarke played some of my tracks during his weekly radioshow WHITENOISE. ” It started with the track ‘Zoom 21.0’, released by Anthony Duponts label ‘Bass Pressure’, soon followed by ‘Zoom 30.0’, released by the label of Johnny Digital, ‘IHARTDIGITAL’.
The passion he has for music and his fascination for making something out of nothing has brought Mr Jones this far. “But don’t think I’m satisfied. This is only the beginning.”
