DJ Donna Summer Bio

Jason Forrest is a busy man these days, producing rock, electro, hardcore, booty and bootleg tracks for a variety of labels from Germany to Japan. He’s a member of the Birthday Party crew, organizing low-cost / high-fun parties where blog-house meets B’more, Baile Funk and mash-up in Berlin. He’s writing daily for their blog, scouring the music world for new tracks to ignite dance floors. He continues to throw the massive Breakcore festival “Wasted” with techno/rave pioneer Pure. And of course, he continues to run his record label, Cock Rock Disco, building their good reputation for releasing high quality music that pushes the boundaries. Now he’s focusing on his old moniker of DJ Donna Summer, and this time wants to come and literally party with you.

Forrest is no newcomer, since 2000 he’s been featured in many of the world’s top publications*, and has played all over the world in many of the world’s largest music festivals. He's been blogged on Big Stereo, Discobelle, Trash Menagerie, Slutty Fringe, Palms Out Sounds and Diplo’s Mad Decent Blog. His albums have been included in the top albums of the year in Blender, Spin, and Pitchfork. His music videos were named videos of the year consecutive years by Res magazine, and “War Photographer” has been downloaded more than 1.3 million times. His live shows involve much bad dancing, possibly some blood, and maybe a shattered laptop – it’s a whole lot of fun!
