Music

Our first dubstep show
My brother and I have been listening to electronic music since the late 90's. After I graduated from high school, I took up the hobby of DJ'ing. I started buying vinyl records from the UK, and landed some gigs and raves and clubs around New England. It wasn't long before my younger brother Justin got interested in DJ'ing as well. He played a style of music called Drum n Bass, and I generally played electro house and techno. About a year and half ago we decided to join forces and start a project called The Swagger Jackers. We play a variety of music now, from electro to dubstep to indie rock, anything we like.We DJ and put out mixtapes, produce remixes and originals, blog, organize and promote concert events and other music industry type stuff. 
Working the controls
This summer we got to play a few good shows, I figured I would share some photos and a couple videos. This summer we have really been getting into the dubstep style of dance music. These photos are from our first all dubstep DJ set. We also have a dubstep mixtape called "War of the Worlds" that is online and available for free download. Here is a short video from our first dubstep DJ set in July.




EDIT: I have another video to share!

  1. Very cool music Aaron! You and your brother are very talented. The links rock, I'm sure you exposed alot of people to new genres, and definitely at least new artists. Thanks for the free downloads! :)
