ARTIST  JEVNE |
 |
Known for playing live bass guitar and live percussion along
with his dj sets, Jevne has really set him self apart from the
pack. Jevne has been playing bass for over 12 years and
funks out a six string bass over original house music while
live in the mix, if that’s not enough Jevne throws in set of
bongs to compliment his sound. Jevne’s show has been
blowing up all over, It’s taken Jevne to Miami, Vegas,
Phoenix, Anchorage Alaska, Austin Texas and Key West
Florida already in 2006! This is a show you don’t want to
miss!
Djing 5-6 nights a week, running Onethirty Recordings,
producing and remixing tracks that have appeared on many
top djs charts to writing reviews for the Balance Record
pool, Jevne’s life revolves around dance music and is shown
through his dedication on all levels.
Known as a genuine down to earth guy, Jevne began mixing
in 1993 during his college days back in the mountains of
Colorado, He moved his talents back to his hometown of
Minneapolis and has been a respected staple of the
Minneapolis scene since 1998. Jevne has been involved with
some of the biggest events to happen in Minneapolis
including one of the most successful weekly club nights
“Plush” at the Quest Club, where Jevne played weekly with
world renowned djs like Deep Dish, Dj Dan, Donald Glaude,
Paul Van Dyk, Pete Tong and Richie Hawtin for thousands of
people each week. Over the years Jevne has had many
residencies in Minneapolis from Club Ground Zero, Martini
Blu, The Caterpillar Lounge and The Lounge one of
Minneapolis’s longest running hot spots. At The lounge on
any given Friday night for a year you would find Jevne on
the decks, 6 string bass guitar, and bongos with Chuck Love
along side playing a multitude of instruments. Jevne was
also a staple of the Midwest rave scene from 96 to 2000,
playing many of the large events. Jevne now is one of the
most in demand dj’s in Minneapolis and plays 5-6 nights a
week in Minneapolis alone while holding down a Friday night
residency at Visage (one of Minneapolis’s newest night
clubs) and Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Saturdays at The
Independent, not to mention playing with talent from across
the globe while traveling playing music. Jevne has made his
way to play in Miami, Vegas, Phoenix, Anchorage Alaska,
Austin Texas and Key West Florida already in 2006, and is
heading back to Alaska and Key West to play before the end
of 2006.
Jevne had the privilege of being the manager and buyer of
Let It Be Records for six years. Let it Be was a highly
respected dance music shop by many of the biggest djs in
the world, it was a must stop shop for dj’s coming through
Minneapolis. Many top-notch djs would order records from
Jevne every week. In June of 2005 Let it Be unfortunately
closed its doors, due to a high-rise building project. This
gave Jevne more motivation then ever to produce, run
Onethirty and spread the love of his talents!
Jevne is the mind behind Onethirty Recordings. Onethirty
was Jevne’s vision to start an outlet for his production
talents and for a home to work with other artists/producers
that he respects. Onethirty twists and turns threw house,
tribal house and funky grooves made to make you move.
The label has released music by Tony Thomas, Chuck Love,
Alan Barratt, Deepgroove, Spur, The Scenheadz and of
course Jevne. Up coming releases will hear music from: Leo
Portela from Argentina, Aaron Roberts from Phoenix, Scud
Bloom, Justin Martin, The Sceneheadz and more from Jevne.
With the amazing switch to digital music Jevne & Onethirty
are right there with it, with Onethirty Digital where
Onethirty will release exclusive digital material through
www.beatport.com, www.stompy.com,
www.traxsource.com, www.releaserecords.com and
www.clickgroove.com. Onethirty has also teaming up with
InGrooves to widen the digital distribution for the label.

On the production end Jevne has made a great mark so far,
but is jut getting started. Many great producers including
Chuck Love, Tony Thomas, Dizzy, Deepgroove, Justin Martin,
Alan Barratt and more have remixed Jevne. His first few
releases on Aphrodisio Records did amazingly well and were
playing by many top djs. Jevne’s releases have appeared on
many charts from D-Fuse’s to Pete Tong’s. His remix of Tony
Thomas’s “Beats Treat” made it to # 1 on the Balance
Record pool Chart for 2 weeks! All his other releases have
appeared on the Balance Charts as well. His “Beats Treat”
Remix appeared on the “White House” Compilation by
Graham Sahara on Seamless Records and many of his other
tracks have been requested for licensing as well. In 2004
Jevne & Tony Mendez teamed up for a release on
InProgressive Records (Spain) called “Music Overseas” the
release went on to be InProgressive’s # 1 seller. Jevne has
many great releases coming up including Jevne with
