The Jivers is a production duo formed by the two French DJs/producers: Don Pascal and Fred Spider. Having not known each other before, their paths first crossed when both of them had moved to Barcelona in 2007. Soon they discovered their common love for deep and soulful music ranging from Jazz, Funk, Brazil to Nu-Jazz, Broken Beat or House. Their debut single Do What has already been featured on the second Jazz&Milk Breaks compilation and received amazing feedback and spins from DJs all over the globe and was brought to an even broader audience after being included on several compilations such as Saint Germain des Prés Café. Now the song is being re-released in form of the Do What EP including a brand new track called Move On Girl, again featuring the unmistakable voice of Anqui and remixes by DJ Moodz, Don Pascal and Fred Spider. The Jivers' music can be described as a dance-floor oriented fusion of Jazz elements with modern beat productions including the colorful and melodic vocals of Anqui.
