Jinx was formed in 1999. Having cut his teeth DJing around the massive Northern free party scene, and influenced by the upcoming Breakstep garage sound of the time, two friends from Lancaster, UK got together to form a new production duo. Basing their sound on a shared love of Dub, Jungle, Techno and Breaks, they released first single Kutt Free to a warm reception from critics and DJs alike, and capitalised on this success with second release Kreamy Belta -a tune that featured in the sets of some of the scenes biggest DJs for over a year. Shortly after this release, however, the partnership disbanded when one member went on to form acclaimed Tech House duo Spincycle. This wasn't the end, though. An unquenchable thirst for breakbeat and a small change of personnel meant that Jinx reformed in early 2005 with sights clearly set on making floor shaking records that would rock the foundations of the UK breaks scene.
After an extended period in production limbo, the Jinx boys new, techier, funked-up sound led to their first two tunes being snapped up by Koma & Bones for their Burrito imprint. Following that, smashing dancefloors around the UK and abroad at the end of 2006 was massive track 'The Raid', and still forthcoming in 2008 is Some class people & Twilight 2000 on U.S label Hi-Grade and Dreadrock & Acid Shuffle on Bassrock Records.
