Jack Revill (11 January 1986[1] – 12 October 2024), better known as Jackmaster, was a Scottish disc jockey (DJ) and record producer from Glasgow. He was a co-founder of the record label and club night Numbers as well as Wireblock, Dress 2 Sweat, Point.One Recordings, Seldom Felt and TDSR.

He was renowned for his in-depth and diverse music taste and ability to mix a multitude of different genres.[2] He was one of a few examples of a DJ known primarily as a DJ (rather than a producer), alongside Hessle Audio's Ben UFO and Rinse FM's Oneman.[3]
