J. Saintil is one of those names that hangs in the air like jasmine or particularly potent pot pourri. Uncannily familiar yet at the same time distinct. Why? Well it probably has to do with his covert manoeuvres ducking in and out of the radar; playing with the likes of Ekkohaus and Mobilee's boy wonder Gummihz at warehouse parties to playing 8000-capacity festivals such as Tales Of The Jackalope with the likes of Mylo, Justice and the Bugged Out posse or The Electronic Winter Ball with Mouse On Mars and Sud Electronic's Portable. Then flying overseas to play launch parties in Helsinki with local heroes Finndisco, roof parties in Berlin with Rolf Hegelstien and plusher than plush all-expenses-paid birthday parties at Sketch with the aforementioned Trevor Jackson and Oskar from Berlin hipster-hangout F.U.N. Not to mention headlining gigs from Copenhagen to Vilnus. Then, just like that he's back on the map, playing a residency at AKA's party of choice 'The Players' for 3 years, turning up to spin with the high gloss disco dons Laser Magnetic with the likes of Metro Area, Padded Cell and Lindstrom merely to 'vanish' at his residencies 'Warme' and 'Reverb' with Playtime's Big Daddy and Marketing Music's head honcho Tim Paris.

Heck, none of this even mentions his 93 Feet East party 2Disco that saw Mr Saintil spin with Freestyle Man, see in (and out) the New Year back to back with Chicken Lips, having a minimal giggle with the Freude Am Tanzen's Krause Duo nr. II nor finishing his Masters Degree in the process.

What to expect when you hear him? Funk-inspired electro-tinged house music. Sometimes it's teeters toward disco, sometimes it drops and becomes a little minimal-esque, but be sure, he always rocks - just ask Trevor Jackson.
