A very influencial producer such as Jam El Mar can only create a cadence of enthusiasm of what his selections to the Guest appearance on Report2Dancefloor Radio would be. As a co-founder of JAM & SPOON, Dance 2 Trance, he's responsible for the widespread effect of the trance scene as we know it. As we have experienced it too; who doesn’t have memories of ‘STELLA’ or the track being the milestone of trance: Jam & Spoon’s remix of ‘THE AGE OF LOVE’. In the year 1992 and all that followed had been a long journey of success coming for ‘FOLLOW ME’ and the addition of Plavka’s vocal enchantment in “RIGHT IN THE NIGHT’. A lot more followed up to 2001 for Jam & Spoon but at the same time multiple projects and collaborations such as ’TOKYO GHETTO PUSSY’, ’STORM’ and his solo alias “PARADISE PROGRAMME’.
The first recorded appearance of JAM EL MAR ( under his birth name: Rolf Elmer) dates back in 1981 with the track ‘Deutschland’ by “Grabhund”

as he appears for the solo guitar, hence, he is a classically trained musician and composer (concert-guitarist). And this being one aspect of his musical career, he is also behind technical arrangement, writing & production for numerous artists, to name a few: ’System X’, ‘Dr. Alban’, ‘Beat Syndicate’
So then, getting the vibe of a very vibrant and exciting personality, his answers genuinely are a great honor, The best thing to do? Is to play his set and start reading, enjoy!
INTERVIEW WITH -//- JAM EL MAR
1. What plays in your car ?
Very different! Could be Chillout, Metal, haha, but mostly it´s mixes from great DJs that I like to spy out
-
2. How did it all start for you?
When I fell in love with music! I always wanted to play Guitar like Hendrix. Now, I am a producer and a DJ sometimes. But there was this longing for music that actually was awakened when I heard Voodoo Child and „All Along The Watchtower“ by Jimi.
-
3. What is one subgenre you think doesn't get the attention it deserves?
Are there subgenres? Some music appeal to masses others only to a smaller amount - that is not bad its just that the non popular music is mostly a bit more specified….To me there are no subgenera whatsoever….
-
4. What is one track that never gets old for you no matter how many times you hear it?
Tracks never get old - your taste or your condition might change and so the music you prefer change, but one track I always love is: Acid Phase by Emmanuel Top.
-
5. As both a Dj/Producer , which side are you on : entertainment or educational ?
I never like to educate - I am there to entertain the people, I want them to have a good time. Who am I to think, that I should educate someone? I always try to play an interesting set and to release interesting music. Sometimes with an experimental aspect but that´s not to educate the people, its made for them to have an experience! People tried always to educate me throughout my life - it was terrible, especially when I was in school!
-
6. Do you walk around humming melodies?
Haha no, never! But I actually love it when I see people humming a melody - that means that are happy in 99% of the cases. But when you find me doing this, remind me please, then I will go to the doctor
-
7. Your message to Report2Dancefloor Radio ( including your plans ahead )
No matter what style, shape or what sound you ´re in, everyone is unique but connected with everything at the same time like a drip of water in the vast ocean - so please let us be one and joyful!
I have wonderful collaboration coming along, so stay sharp. I will always go for a Jam El Mar Signature Sound and I hope people will like it. I just teamed up with Markus Schulz Music Group and they are like a great family and I am sure this will be a fruitful collaboration!
And I hope that I will soon have a gig in your city and meet you there in a great club and celebrate a great night of music!
