Jeff Milligan

Jeff was the first DJ to expose a Canadian audience to his unique brand of techno and house music selections, preceded only by Richie Hawtin. His highly technical, three/four turntable style put him in high demand across North America. Jeff is now regarded by his contemporaries as one the most technically talented DJs in the world. By 1999, Jeff began touring the European circuit and by 2002, toured Japan. Jeff has since performed in almost every major city in Europe, North America, and Japan, spanning the globe, maintaining a rigorous tour schedule, DJing and performing live at the world's finest venues in support of the music he loves.

Jeff's DJ production work for +8, and loops on the first Serotonin Records lockgroove compilations, were among the first released material under Jeff's "algorithm" moniker. Since then, Jeff has developed a long and impressive discography with numerous releases on a variety of international record labels over the past few years. Jeff's last full length album project, Composure features Jeff's recomposed work of some of the world's most prolific artists including: Farben, Matmos, Kid 606, Sutekh, Twerk, Safety Scissors and Donacha Costello.

Jeff also spends considerable time on top of his whirlwind tour and production schedule curating his imprint, Revolver Canada Recordings, which he founded in 1999. Over the past few years, Revolver Canada has released an impressive catalog, primarily consisting of Canadian artists including Montreal's Akufen, The Mole, Mike Shannon and Deadbeat, Toronto's Tomas Jirku and Pan/tone, and Kitchener's, Jay Hunsberger.

Currently, Jeff moonlights between Toronto and Montreal, Canada and Bratislava, Slovakia from where he manages the European side of Revolver and Cynosure.

"Serato Scratch Live is integral to my DJ performance. The capability to load loops, edits, demos, pre-release material and index points on the fly has significantly accelerated the advancement of DJ culture. The line beteen "live" performance and DJing has been blurred forever. Scratch Live gives me maximum flexibility, making my sets as modular as I want them to be, allowing me to take the music in any direction I want. I have come to depend on Scratch Live so much that the limitations of regular records almost annoy me now. And unlike records, Scratch Live is environmentally friendly. :)"
