Early life

As a multi-instrumentalist, Jacob has been involved in many bands since his early teenage years - starting out in jazz but soon moving on to death metal and folk. His style is notable for transcending genres, particularly dubstep. His original work, remixes and productions combine elements of syncopated organic percussion, cl*ical piano, sub b* and cinematic orchestral soundscapes.

2009–present: Mainstream success

In 2009, Jacob won acclaim in the blog world for his bootleg of Ellie Goulding's "Starry Eyed". In November 2009, he was given his first airplay on national radio when his remix of Ellie Goulding's "Under the Sheets" was played on BBC Radio 1 as Zane Lowe's 'Hottest Record In The World'. (A *le which has since been given to "Electrify" and "Please".)

Jakwob released his debut single "Here with Me" on his own label, Boom Ting Recordings on 13 September 2010.
