Danny Howells
If I was stranded on a desert island, all I’d need to survive would be Marvin Gaye’s “What’s Going On”, the works of Bowie (circa 1969-1980), a jar of Marmite, several barrels of Doombar fine ale and the latest Skrufff.” Danny Howells, DJ

“Jonty Skrufff’s E-zine is a bloody marvel. In just ten minutes it tells me every last thing I need to know about current club culture around the world.

———-

Much like my local gym (when I’m feeling virtuous) or the local pub (when I’m not) Skrufff has become a part of my weekly ritual. Pleasingly, unlike those two places it’s available wherever I am in the world. Which can be anywhere. Genuinely interesting reading about all sorts of gubbins.” Paolo Mojo, DJ UK
———–
“For a succinct, intelligent, well-balanced yet alternative look at the edge of global culture, Skruff occupies the master position – no one rounds up what’s happening and provides such an eloquent snapshot of the relevant aspects of world as effectively, enjoyably or consistently.” Barefoot Doctor

“As a fellow electronic music journalist and DJ with a conscience, I’ve sailed a close path to Jonty Skrufff over the last 15 years. I’ve DJ’d with him and written about some of the same events, and always read his Skrufff e-zine every week without fail. With a discerning grasp of social issues around the world, he seems ideally placed to expand Skrufff Media into a bigger global concern – which I’m sure he’ll do with integrity, as well as innovation.” Carl Loben, DJ Magazine

“I met Jonty about 15 years ago in a sweaty London club and, since then, I’ve connected with him at numerous industry events around the globe—some more sweaty than others. From Amsterdam to Buenos Aires and beyond, Jonty always brings his unique take on the dance-music industry and we’re all better for it. “Jim Tremayne, DJ Times publisher, US
