I was born in Rome, Italy; into a musical family. In the 1960's, my father left America to travel the world and pursue his career as a musician. My father, Wess Johnson, started as a bass player and by the 1970's became a famous solo singer in Europe, selling over 10 million records throughout his career. I have been surrounded by music all my life.Soul music was my main influence; at home we used to listen to listen to artists like Steve Wonder, James Brown, Aretha Franklin etc. I started DJing by the age of 15 and because of my musical roots, today my selection varies from soul-gospel to electro funk deep house music. After years of work experience in clubs, such as Alien (Rome), Gatto e la volpe (Bologna), Fix Carraldo (Arezzo), Cocorico (Rimini), Maddalena (Perugia) etc. I played for the first time in Europe, Zurich, in 1993 together with DJs such as Stefano di Carlo, Claudio Coccoluto and Eric Morillo.In the year 2000, I moved to London and DJed for the European tour of my sister, Romina Johnson (massive hit "Movin' Too Fast"). Since moving to London, I have been a resident DJ for the "Conservatory," and played for many different clubs such as: Attica, Cafe' de Paris, Ministry of Sound, Red Star, Core, Superego, Aka, main set for the Vodka Cruiser 2002, launch party at the Puzzle Club in Valencia, Ibiza and Barcelona.At the moment I am embarking on a new career as a house music producer and currently working with Romina and Wess Johnson, Barbara Tucker (remix) and new talented vocalists. Romina and I own our production company, J&J Music Production, which features house-soul-hip-hop-funk-R&B music.
I am very much looking forward to new collaborations with gifted and committed artists. J&J music production is all about creating the Vital Sound of Music.Wesley,
