11-year-old DJ sets world record for the most songs mixed in a minute

As the world’s youngest DJ, 11-year-old Jack Hill has spun an impressive list of accomplishments from his decks. 

Now, the pint-sized schoolboy – who had to stand on a box to reach the equipment when he began helping his dad DJ aged three – has managed to notch up his fifth world record.  Jack mixed 10 songs in just one minute. Now he runs discos on Saturday night and hopes to make it big in the music industry. Jack, who will be  12 in May, now has five world records to his name including youngest DJ and club DJ. Tom Howard, of the US-based World Records Academy, confirmed Jack’s incredible records tally.

He said, “Jack’s parents did an amazing job, something all parents should do: encourage their children’s hobby and let them grow along with it.

“During the past few years, we have seen Jack’s development from a very little child who can barely speak into the disco’s microphone to a very confident young boy with a mission: to be the best in his career as a DJ. So far, he did it very well.”

Mr Howard added, “There are very few people in this world to have world records at his age.”

Bob Hill said, “Jack is a complete natural, he has a passion about DJing and is a real talent.”

He has had his own radio show since he was eight and broadcasts weekly on Nova Radio 107.7fm in Weston-super-Mare

His skills have taken him to gigs as far away as Italy and Spain. He has also had a 10 minute mix played on Radio 1-Extra.

Jack is currently only recognised as holding one official Guinness World Record for being the youngest club DJ.

Spokesman Damian Field said, “We’d like to wish Jack the best of luck with whatever he chooses to do next.”
