House Central

Contemporary dance music is forever evolving and Jay Forster has his mighty fingers firmly on the pulse. His passion for the music saw him becoming a regular teenage contributor to local station Spirit FM rating new dance tunes live on air.

Through hosting parties at college Jay was able to hone his DJing skills, and in 2005 he began working the clubs around his local area in South West England. Jay quickly established himself as a man who knew his music and found himself engaged as station manager at the station Pure FM. 2006 saw the launch of Express FM and Jay was asked to host the Friday Night Dance slot from the start. His musical expertise playing the finest Funky House & Commercial Dance was instrumental in creating something special on air. He continued his weekly shows on Express FM & Pure FM, developing his sound and skills behind the mic’. In 2005 Jay was hitting the decks in the sun at Ibiza and in 2007 producing and presenting two pulsating live broadcasts from Ibiza’s Cafe Mambo, which were the first International OB’s to be run on community radio in the UK.

These days Jay still works as a talented DJ and can also be found in production at BBC 1Xtra overseeing a variety of the network’s output.

Jay is a youthful accomplished presenter establishing himself as one to watch and hear as he helps shape the future of UK dance music.
