==Early Life And Career Beginnings==
Born at Mbale in Uganda on 19 September 1967, his father a Hindu factory manager and mother an Ismaili Muslim, Jobanputra was forced to leave Uganda in 1972 when Idi Amin expelled the country’s Asian population. On arrival in the UK, he lived for a year in a refugee camp at West Malling in Kent, before his family were resettled in a council flat in St John’s Wood, North London.
After captaining London’s schools cricket team and opening the bowling for Middlesex Colts, he began to establish a presence on the capital’s dance music scene while still studying for a degree in history and politics at the University of East Anglia. DJ-ing at house parties and for pirate stations including LWR led him to his first job in the music industry - as a junior partner with Simon Goffe’s Heavyweight Management from 1992-4, where he worked with UK chart hip-hop producers Double Trouble and Rebel MC and the Stoke Newington drum and bass band Shut Up And Dance among others.〔(A&R, Record Label / Company, Music Publishing, Artist Manager and Music Industry Directory )〕
