Hey there, I'm Jan aka Minkee DJ. My dance music roots began back in the early to mid 80’s when I started clubbing with vengeance and I fell in love immediately with House, Chicago House n Acid House styles of music.
I never experienced the early raves or oldskool dance tunes because my kids came along and I spent a while just being mum! During my mummy years I had settled nicely into trance music and more or less stayed there until 2006 when I was introduced to a particular internet radio station.
I realised there was more to dance music that the chilled out laid back tunes I had been listening to for years and I became immediately obsessed with UK hardcore...luvvin Dougal n Gammer tunes more n anyone elses.
It seemed that wasnt enough and as a result of DJ Mad Max's influence i developed a love for Freeform, with its pacey and undulating style and on the harder side of music I developed a total passion for Hardstyle, both Oldskool and especially Nu-style.
As for DJ'in well that happened by accident as the first setup in our household was bought for my daughter Hannah but she couldnt get her head round it at all, so I had a go, quite liked it and Minkee DJ was born lol!
So there we go I've been DJ'ing on a reasonably regular basis since about September 2008 rinsin the ole nu-style hardstyle choonz and sometimes a bit of funky house/rnb and although I am still somewhat a noob I am hoping that when time permits I will get on the decks more often and rinse them choonz a bit more, in good ole Minkeelicious stylee ;)
