The original superstar DJ earned his moniker while studying law at London School of Economics, though, realising he was onto something big, he paused his academic career to focus on launching his music one – presiding over dancefloors instead of the courtroom, becoming one of the most famous DJs of all time and synonymous with 90s club culture.

Though Judge Jules been seemingly quiet in the UK in recent years, he has continued to influence Ibiza’s club music scene with regular residencies, as well as hosting his Global Warm Up podcasts, which receive up to 750,000 downloads weekly.
