The Str8jackets

Whether its an Asylum, Deluded or Medicated Rub they stamp their identity firmly on everything they do. Their first major recognition came from Pete Tong on BBC radio 1, playing their bootleg remix of the Black Eyed Peas’ ‘Boom Boom Pow’ and wrongly crediting it as a David Guetta Remix (some praise) as well as making their debut track, ‘Whats it All About? a ‘Wonderment’ on the Essential Selection. Remixes for Kim English & Stephanie Cooke on Legendary label Nervous NYC have seen support from greats such as Frankie Knuckles and Junior Vasquez.
