Trevor Jackson

Trevor Jackson is a London based creative, working in many fields including graphic design, art direction, moving image, music writing, remixing and production, installations and performance.

His career began in the early 90's forming the design company BITE IT! creating record covers for early dance and hip hop releases for the STEREO MC'S, JUNGLE BROTHERS and TODD TERRY. He was selected for 1990's CREATIVE FUTURES exhibition, and also featured in Cynthia Rose's influential book DESIGN AFTER DARK - THE STORY OF DANCEFLOOR STYLE (Thames and Hudson). After setting up his independant hip hop label BITE IT! RECORDINGS in 1991, he ventured into record production and remixing. Using the UNDERDOG name, he became successful remixing artists such as MASSIVE ATTACK, U2 and UNKLE, and also producing multicultural british rap act the BROTHERHOOD, whose highly commended debut album ELEMENTALZ was released by BITE IT!/VIRGIN in 1995

In 1996 Trevor formed a new label OUTPUT RECORDINGS, introducing artists such as FOUR TET, BLACK STROBE, COLDER MU, CIRCLESQUARE, THE RAPTURE, LCD SOUNDSYSTEM as well as his own acclaimed PLAYGROUP project. OUTPUT is recognized as one of the UK's most fiercely independent and creatively groundbreaking labels, releasing uncompromising yet accessible new music of many genres. A cover story in Jockey Slut magazine (2003) cited OUTPUT as this decades equivalent to the legendary Factory or Warp records.
Jackson's DJ skills were showcased on the 2002 released DJ KICKS album (K7!) and many of his latest remixes for YELLO, FRANZ FERDINAND, LADYTRON, THE RAPTURE, SOFT CELL and TOM VEK can be listened to on his 2004 released Playgroup REPRODUCTIONS remix CD (PEACEFROG).

Trevor creates artwork for most of OUTPUT’S artists and is currently working on diverse projects for many international clients. His campaign for the belgium band SOULWAX won various awards including the 2004 TOKYO TDC non members prize, a D&AD sliver pencil nomination, and CREATIVE REVIEW's best in book. Features and selections of his work have appeared in publications such as INDEX, IDN, SPECIAL 10, TOKION, GRAFIK as well as being included in the GUGGENHEIM Museum's exhibition on minimalism, "Singular Forms (Sometimes Repeated) Art from 1951 to the Present",

Trevor’s passion for pushing the new without compromise never tires. He recently combined his audio and visual talentswith an installation for the launch of the BMW1 series car, and a debut live a/v performance for the ONEDOTZERO festival in Tokyo 2005, This project is currently being expanded into a full sound reactive experience to be toured in the near future.
