Jason Nevins is a house music producer and remixer. He started working as a remixer in the mid 90s, but achieved recognition with his minimalist rework of Run-DMC's It's Like That, which he released as Run-DMC vs. Jason Nevins, reaching the #1 spot in over 30 countries, including the German Top 100 and the UK Top 40 charts.

Nevins followed up with a string of hip-house remixes, with Run-DMC's Tricky, 2 Live Crew's We Want Some Pussy and Cypress Hill's Insane In The Brain. Later, he started to add a rock vibe to his remixes, working on Elvis Presley's Rubberneckin, N.E.R.D.'s Rock Star and Duran Duran's Sunrise. Nevins has also started producing his own work, release his debut album, Funk Rocker, in October 2004, and reached airplay in Europe with his new pseudonym, UKNY and the track I'm In Heaven, with vocals by Holly James.
