About Me


Johnny Y was born on July 24th, 1981 in Livonia, Michigan USA. His passion for Electronic Dance Music began in the late 90's when he was sucked in to the Detroit underground rave scene. It wasn't until years later that he started to experiment with producing his own music, but only as a hobby. Johnny was a drummer for 7 years and had played in several bands of various genres throughout High School. After graduating in 1999, he left his last band, and started an acting career which led him out to the West Coast. In August of 2003, Johnny moved to Los Angeles to further pursue his acting career which he still continues to do. It wasn't until a few years ago, that Johnny's passion for Electronic Music found it's way back to him, which was sparked by seeing live performances and stumbling upon the music of Paul van Dyk, Armin van Buuren, Tiesto, and John Digweed. It was shortly after this, that Johnny realized what he truly wanted to do. "There's no greater feeling in the world, than to be able to control a crowd with your two hands and your music." ,he says.
Johnny fell back into producing music in 2006, and started learning how to DJ in July of 2007. He is always developing new sounds and continues to grow every day as a DJ/Producer. Look out for this rising young artists' new series of mixes titled, "White Light Sessions with Johnny Y" , coming in the Winter of 2007!
