Statement from the Family of Jack Revill (Jackmaster)
It is with profound sorrow that we confirm the untimely passing of Jack Revill, known to many as Jackmaster. Jack tragically died in Ibiza on the morning of 12th October, following complications arising from an accidental head injury.
His family—Kate, Sean, and Johnny — are utterly heartbroken. While deeply touched by the overwhelming support from friends, colleagues, and fans, the family kindly requests privacy as they navigate the immense grief of this devastating loss.
Jack’s passion for music and his relentless drive to push creative boundaries through his work at the Numbers label and Rubadub Records in Glasgow, including discovering countless innovative artists, made him a beloved and pioneering figure in the electronic music community both in front of and behind the scenes. His talent for blending genres and delivering electrifying DJs sets and productions earned him the respect and admiration of peers and fans across the globe. His legacy will continue to inspire, and his impact on the world of dance music will remain indelible.
Just back from the US. Big up everyone who turned up!
Every time I come over to see you guys it seems to get better. I’ll be back before the end of the year. Get it 🇺🇸
Mad when the first ever tune you made was with your best mate @skreamizm , on a label run by @circolocorecords and @rockstargames , then this week ends up in an official @apple advert. Pinching myself. >>> Swipe to see it.
@solidgroovesuk was fuckin unreal on Thursday. I was well proud of how I played. Thank u to all the troops who created that mad energy during my set, and to all the crew at Solid Grooves and @dc10ibizaofficial for making me feel so at home. (Kendrick remix is up for free download later this week on my Instagram broadcast channel, when I finish it) 😬❤️
I have been lucky enough to do b2b with some incredible DJs and my heroes over the years (shout out Armand) but to be called up by the GOD @kerrichandler to play @kaoztheorymusic and then ask to play back to back!?!? Still got goosebumps from this one. 😍
We caught some sick highlights from the road recently in Madrid, Paris, Ibiza and more… plus an ageing DJ complaining a little about what’s changed in the scene and a reminder to heed my own advice 😅
