Biography
London native Julia Porter, known to many as Miss Jools, has not only found a home in Berlin since the summer of 2008 but a reputable DJ name as well.
Miss Jools officially launched her career in the music industry in 1995 after a series of DJ gigs around London landed her a radio spot on London’s underground radio station, “Girls FM.” Miss Jools was able to freely exercise her musical tastes and choices twice a week on the radio show: her hand-picked vinyl selections were inspired by assorted techno and house pioneers of the early nineties. With an ear for flourishing technological advancements, flowing trends, and ongoing changes in the electronic music scene, her career began to amplify to extraordinary heights.
In 2002 Miss Jools made herself a household name by co-founding and promotoing London’s hottest Sunday night affair, the “Clandestino,” mothering a techno-suave crowd, robust baselines, airy melodies and a cosmopolitan atmosphere. Clandestino has hosted the likes of Anja Schneider, Guido Schneider, Chloe, Dinky, Clive Henry and many more. In 2006 Miss Jools collaborated with Audiofly, giving birth to the production outfit Sleeper Thief, which received massive support from quintessential names like Luciano, Damian Lazarus, Phonique and M.A.N.D.Y.
Today Miss Jools not only DJs but also produces, drawing on influences as varied as deep house, minimal, funk, electro and techno. Her first solo release was recorded on mobilee in winter 2008 and she is already the third artist to mix and compile mobilee’s Back to Back compilation CD series. Her comprehensive knowledge of electronic music and melting-pot of experience has made Miss Jools a valuable asset to not only to the mobilee family but to the electronic music world in general.
