Jeff Hopkins from St. Louis, Missouri was introduced to the electronic music scene in 1990 when he became a regular at 1227, a club which was located on Washington Ave. in St. Louis, MO. His passion for electronic music continued to grow through the nineties and into the millennium. In 2000 he started throwing parties in his home and on the 23rd floor of the Laclede Gas building in downtown St. Louis. These were historic parties that club goers will never forget. Positive reinforcement and a magnetic influence was all it took for Jeff to purchase his first dj equipment in 2001. It was dj’ing where Jeff found his true passion and began expressing himself in a profound way. He was able to learn the basics by watching local and national dj’s work their magic in the booth. Many local and national dj’s introduced Jeff to deep, dark house, the roots of Jeff’s ever growing style. Within a year, Jeff earned residencies at two of St. Louis’ top clubs. Velocity Promotional Group picked up Jeff in 2002 and then he went on to work with La La Land Entertainment before venturing out on his own in 2004. To date DJ Jeff Hopkins has had many successful residencies including The Living Room, Velvet, The Havanah Lounge, Faces, Martini Room, Rue 13, The Drunken Fish, Sub Zero, Dantes, Kyo, Mollys, Ten14, Xes, Throttle, Level 13 & his ongoing after hours show The Breakfast Club as well as hundreds of local and out of state parties. In 2004 Jeff was the featured DJ on “The Electric X”, a live radio show on 94x in Memphis, TN. In 2005 Jeff was honored with an invitation to open for Oscar G at Velvet on the club’s last open night after a highly successful 10 year run. His unique style of dirty, electro, tribal, progressive & Tech house continues to evolve. His live energetic sets always captivate the crowds no matter where he is playing!! Don’t miss him!!!!!
