July

Şahin Meyer - Husband and wife duo Linda & Shy Jacobs have only been DJing together under the moniker Şahin Meyer for as long as they have been married (just over a year) yet both have extensive experience as DJs. They have both been DJing since 1999, but come from complete different backgrounds. Linda being the only female DJ in her hometown of Durban in South Africa for the first 5 years of her career coupled with hard work meant she was immediately an instant hit. Shy didn’t really exist on the scene because he didn’t have boobs and wasn’t very sexy. He however does have a talent for bringing drinks quickly and getting people ridiculously drunk which is how he got ahead unlike Linda who was a excellent DJ and her talent over shadowed her boobs and sexiness. As well as their huge success in South Africa, they have also played in India, Mauritius and Istanbul. Last year saw the couple spread their wings and relocate to London, so far they have played at The Cross, Whitehouse, Turnmills, 54, The Egg and Ministry of Sound amongst others. Also catch them making sandwiches at Subway in Hendon Central or look out for them as ticket officers in your nearest bus or tube stop, during the day Linda works at Juno Records and Shy works at Sapphires (decks.co.uk) for money.
