About

Jonathan Richard Cooper was born in the Belgian Congo in Africa. In the early 90’s, Jon formed a dancing drag cabaret act known as ‘The Pleased Wimmin’ with two friends from college. Jon suddenly had an alter ego that only came out at night. Dancing outrageously in pre-house clubs such as Kinky Gerlinky and the like ‘The Pleased Wimmin’ became infamous in London. More importantly, they encouraged people to lose their inhibitions and this soon caught the attention of the original Shoomer, Danny Rampling. Danny was so impressed by their style, that he invited The Pleased Wimmin to become a regular feature at Rampling’s infamous Glam night at London’s Milk bar. It was here that Jon was offered his first DJ break, filling in a warm up spot one night. Jon learnt to DJ on the job and with his instinctive knowledge of how to work a crowd, he was a complete natural and destined to become one of the UK’s leading new DJ’s. In 1993, Jon started his own night, ‘Pleased’ at the Velvet Underground in London. What started as a low key, intimate gathering every Wednesday, grew into the best mid-weeker in London – attracting music, media and club types alike. Boy George, Blur, the Manics, Depeche Mode, Pet Shop Boys and Pete Burns were a few of the regular attendees. In 1994 Jon turned his hand to the studio, with his first single 'Passion' (a cover of the Bobby O production by The Flirts) produced alongside Pizzaman (aka Norman Cook) and signed to Norman's label Southern Fried. It went on to be picked up by East West and later Paul Oakenfold's Perfecto selling 12, 000 copies and notching up a top 30 position in the National UK Charts.
