JIMMY 2 SOX

My man JIMMY 2 SOX
By DANGEROUS DAN


I first met jimmy about 4 years ago, somewhere in Sydney. I think he was working in the warehouse at Ksubi. He had just started Djing and was super into music and nightclubs Jimmy was always hanging with the cool kids but there was one thing just a little odd about him. He was really really nice, a little too nice. I think it was rumored that he was maybe a shhhhh christian....? Dunno. Whatever it was, the last few years have just been jading enough to give this kid the grit he needed. Still super nice and great to be around but doesn’t think twice about staying up for the day and making out with as many chico’s as possible.

He’s my kind of dude, a dude’s dude. No pansy shit here. He likes to party. It shows in his DJjng now too, straight up party house n techno. Enough words for the ladies, enough noises for the boys. Jimmy is always fun to DJ with and the bomb to have around. Just ask James Murphy, Boys Noise, Surkin, Rub n Tug, Aeroplane, Cut Copy, Presets, Tim Sweeny, Lifelike and Mr. Oizo. They all have shared time behind the decks with 2 SOX, half of them trying to steal him from his Sunday home at Hugo’s lounge. That is not happening. “but Dangerous, Aeroplane want me to go be support on their 26 date American tour?!” no chance. I aint lettin this kid go. He’s too good with us.

Ask him what he’s doing in the studio and he says... "Ive Remixed Empire of the sun, Pnau, Jackson Jackson, Mickey Green, Toecutter and more on the way." Stuff that comes out of his computer is good, real good. Well good enough for me to play anyway. A solid dude, a solid DJ, I would recommend JIMMY to anyone, just make sure you keep an eye on your girlfriend.
