Jean Jacques Smoothie (born Steve Robson) is a British DJ, producer, and record label founder.
[2][1] Originally from Gloucester, England, Robson moved in 1994 to Cardiff, Wales, where he began DJing and founded a record label, Plastic Raygun, with some friends.
Since then, Smoothie has released further singles, remixed tracks for artists including Kylie Minogue, and performed DJ sets throughout Europe.
[1] His next single, "Nite Time", sampled a song by The Isley Brothers and drew inspiration from Parisian house music.
[1] The single was not a commercial success, but it prompted Robson to adopt the stage name Jean Jacques Smoothie, given his music's French influences.
[6] However, following the September 11 attacks in the United States, radio programmers in the UK began removing certain, potentially insensitive songs from rotation, leading them to add new ones — including "2 People" — to their playlists in their place.
