Jared Leopard is a 20 year old music producer and DJ based in Paris exploring the intersection of deep house, bass music and lush ambient vibes. He arrived in Paris after bouncing around the globe with his family due to his father’s computer business, which left him marooned in Cabo San Lucas for 10 months with its top 40 clubs and sweaty tourists, completely void of any scene other than the endless amounts of fanny packs and sun visors. Desperate for inspiration, he took to the internet on his 1MPS modem and discovered labels such as Soulection, The Melt, and Astronautico.

After cutting his teeth DJing to the sock-and-sandal-clad dancefloor massive, Jared decided to start producing his own music. Through Dubspot’s Ableton Live online school, he connected with his instructor and course developer Steve Nalepa, one of the core members of LA beat collective TeamSupreme. Jared approached him with the goal to make it to a tape before volume 30, and was promptly sent rules and samples for that week. He made it onto volume 24 that same week and has been featured on 10+ volumes since then.
With a forthcoming release and podcast with MonstArt, a mix for Just Jam on dontwatchthat.tv and several upcoming gigs, Jared Leopard has settled in to his new home and is enjoying a serious nightlife upgrade.
