The J&S Project is composed of two Italian Producers: Angelo Vitaliano and Antonio Smaldone aka dj Tony S, who are respectively a musician and a deejay. So the J&S Project fuses melodies and grooves. It was originated in Pompeii, near Naples, South of Italy, just under the volcano called .Vesuvio., where the electronic music scene has always been full of talented producers. Angelo has a great experience of live performances with synthesizers and sound designing; instead, Tony has a long experience as underground deejay, and in 2002 they realized they had the same target in their life: to create music. So they decided to be together in this adventure.

J&S Project's sound could be defined as a mixture between the progressive sounds by Vangelis and the golden old Tech-House grooves by Danny Tenaglia; they like to call their style .Wide House.. To get an idea of the J&S.s sound, try to imagine mystic and cinematic melodies flowing on a powerful and driving groove, but always with a strong underground mood. The atmospheres that these guys are able to create are so eclectic that their tracks have amazed a large variety of deejays and producers, everyone with a completely different musical taste. J&S Project's tunes are, indeed, in the tracklists and charts of deejays such as: James Zabiela, Hernan Cattaneo, Steve Lawler, Flavio Vecchi, Moshic, Anthony Pappa, Subsky, Trafik, Jeff Bennett, Christian Cambas, Shiloh, Randall Jones (from Tigerhook Corp), Blue Room Project, Perry O'Neil, Ralf, M.A.S. Collective, Adi Dumitra (Only Rec) and many more.

Also, it is important to underline their vision of the live performance: not only a deejay set. They look at the club as a real .underground concert hall., where to bring their show always using different .toys. such as turntables, synthesizers, CDjs, EFX units and so on.
