Talent speaks for itself. It doesn’t scream or shout; it settles in quietly and rages a storm for the world to see. And nobody embodies that degree of talent better than Jayant, aka Jitter. Identified as one of India’s most versatile DJs, Jayant’s obsession with creating music started at an early age. His curiosity and eagerness have not waned ever since the first time he manipulated sounds to his whim.
Jayant began producing music in 2003 and has done numerous projects since then. His pet project, Jitter, is a LIVE/DJ techno identity. He has also produced movie and TV show scores – all this despite having no formal training in music theory.
His boundaries as an artist are practically limitless, and that ethos reflects in all his work. His influences come from a wide spectrum of artists and musicians ranging from Indian classical, electronica, rock, techno and ambient; Jayant has fused all of them to develop a unique style of music, all his own.
As Jitter, his sound is very edgy, experimental and almost psychedelic – bridging the gap between the outdoor vibe and a club.
Alongside Jitter, he is also a part of Karsh Kale’s band and has been touring with him since early 2012; the same year, he was voted as the #2 DJ in a DJ Mag India poll.
Jayant has worked with internationally acclaimed artists such as Anoushka Shankar, Cheb-i Sabah, Karsh Kale and Midival Punditz to name a few.
