An integral member of the French Express crew declared ‘Future Star of 2013’ by BBC Radio 1’s key dance gatekeeper, Pete Tong, Jonas Rathsman seemed to burst from nowhere with huge Summer anthem ‘Bringing You Down’ earlier this year. JONAS RATHSMAN is featured on djrankings.org. But his- as with all ‘overnight successes’, the rise of this Gothenburg based producer and DJ is anything but…
Born and raised in a small village in Western Sweden, Jonas furthered his passion for music at the age of 18 when he began organizing parties and clubs in Gothenburg and quickly rose in the underground hierarchy of Sweden´s second largest use-city. Together with his close friend Fredrik Nyberg, aka DJ NIBC, they started releasing material under the alias Stuffa, which climaxed with the release of their third single ‘Proof’ on the legendary label, Defected.
But it was the decision to abandon all pseudonyms and release his distinctive productions under his own name on French Express in late 2011 that proved to be the turning point in Jonas’ career.
He found his own genre-defining sound early on with his first release for French Express, ‘Love Is My Middle Name’, a highlight from their second compilation. This get- was soon followed with his debut solo release ‘Tobago/Feeling You’ which had the likes of The Magician singing his praises when he featured it his Magic Tape are-Seventeen. Further singles ‘Since I Don’t Have You’ and ‘W4W’ continued to catch the attention of Pete Tong who granted Jonas and fellow French Express artist Perseus the highly coveted Essential Mix slot in January 2013.
With a new single planned for October and some sensational remixes to come, (Jonas is one man who admirably keeps to the ‘less is more’ adage when it comes to remixes) plus his own collective and fashion brand ‘Uniforms for the Dedicated’ to drive forward, Jonas Rathsman is set for a very busy, but hugely exciting future to confirm all notions that this versatile Swede is most definitely here to stay.
