Mark Jones & Paul Gullefer

Prior to the existence of Dolly Rockers DJ collaborative, Mark Jones and Paul Gullefer (Real name Johnny Olley) were respected on the UK house scene in their own right. The two met up in the early 90s when Mark Jones was hosting Dolly Rocker Balls – classy “strict dress-code” parties that were held in exhibition halls and other unusual venues. Paul Gullefer started off attending these parties as a guest but shortly after became a resident DJ for them.

The Balls ran right up until the beginning of 2010 when the momentum finally died down and rather than let the name go, Mark and Paul decided to shorten it to Dolly Rockers and form their DJ collaborative.

Ever since then, the two have made for the perfect team with Paul bringing lots of energy and enthusiasm to the table and Mark bringing his incredible encyclopedic knowledge of House music.

Dolly Rockers weren’t always successful of course, they put in untold amounts of hard work and effort to get where they are today. Along with their effort, came a few lucky breaks. Arguably their biggest (and most pivotal) break was their release of “One Day” – a collaboration with @It.

We did the track and put it out and one day someone sent us a video click of Eric Morillo playing it in Space. That got us a lot of attention and we could feel the interest growing. Paul Gullefer
