DJ and video film archivist Lovely Jon Casbard is a pivotal figure in the innovative film/DJ collaboration known as "Jigoku," recognized for his expertise in collecting rare underground films and film soundtracks. His passion for film music traces back to his childhood, ignited by receiving the Camden RCA soundtrack to 'A Fistful of Dollars' in 1973 after being captivated by Clint Eastwood's iconic character. Since then, Lovely Jon's devotion to music and movies has only intensified, spanning old-school VHS to Blu-Ray formats. With roots in the punk scene and a background in rave culture, Lovely Jon's journey led him to become a driving force in the East London club scene. His involvement with Subliminal Revolutions introduced him to legendary artists and fueled his experimentation with blending eclectic soundtracks and exploitation movie footage.

Teaming up with Gareth Goddard (Cherrystones, Godsy) in the mid-90s, Jigoku soared to new heights, culminating in high-profile shows at prestigious venues like the ICA alongside revered figures such as Italian soundtrack maestro Alessandro Alessandroni.
