  • Speedy J (born Jochem George Paap in 1969, Rotterdam), is a Dutch techno producer based in the city of Rotterdam. His breakthrough came with the release in 1992 of the minimal techno track Pullover. Subsequently his material became more mellow as he moved away from the hardcore sounds that were then becoming popular in Belgium and the Netherlands. His debut album Ginger (1993) was released on Richie Hawtin's Plus 8 record label in the US, while in the UK it was part of Warp Records' Artificial Intelligence series of electronic listening music. A further, more introspective release, G-Spot followed in 1995; a live album, !ive, was also released. Afterwards his work, which included Public Energy No.1 (1997) and A Shocking Hobby (2000) became more experimental, importantly influencing the development of what is known as "intelligent techno". "Upon first impressions, Public Energy No.1 highlights a big departure from previous Speedy J offerings... in a complete role reversal, it enters upon an iconoclastic electro territory more familiar to admirers of such other purveyors as Autechre, the Aphex Twin, Mike Paradinas and Martin Damm in his Steel persona," wrote Andrez Bergen in 1998 for Australian magazine Inpress. The album Loudboxer (2002) saw a return to a more minimal four to the floor style of techno. He collaborated with Mike Paradinas on the project Slag Boom Van Loon, through which they have released two CDs on Paradinas's record label, Planet Mu. In 1999, he also released two ambient albums for the FAX +49-69/450464 label under his real name. In 2008, he released his sound library/audio software, entitled Kreate by Jochem Paap. KREATE is released by Fixed Noise.

  • Speedy J (echte naam - Jochem Paap), is een Nederlandse technoproducer uit Rotterdam. Zijn doorbraak was de harde technotrack Pullover. Zijn volgende releases werden rustiger en hij begon zich minder te richten op hardcore wat op dat moment net populair begon te worden in Nederland en België. Zijn debuutalbum Ginger en al zijn eerdere releases werden uitgebracht op het Amerikaanse Plus 8 platenlabel van Richie Hawtin. In Groot-Brittannië werden deze releases uitgebracht onder Warp Records in de Artificial Intelligence serie. Een nog meer ingetogen album volgde in 1995:G-Spot. Zijn volgende albums werden meer experimenteel en hadden een grote invloed op de ontwikkeling van intelligent techno. Het vijfde album van Speedy J was een terugkeer naar de hardere en meer minimale stijl van techno: Loudboxer.
