Reviews & Discussion

Review by ABulychev Aug 06, 2010 (edited about 1 year ago)
From his early great rave singles to modern drum & bass tunes Jonny produces great music. He don't follow some trends, don't choose directions created by someone - he creates this directions. Every release has its own, unique style and sound, but you always can determine - this is Jonny L.

He made only three rave releases - but they are essential! Original 'Hurt You So' vinyl contains two amazing mixes of this energizing track. In 'Ooh I Like It' John used his unique technique with trance and acid elements joined with an unsynchronized beat. For me famous remix of 'One Love' by The Prodigy is a much weaker track. The b-side track 'Ansaphone' has really schisophrenic bass lines and girl voice samples, it rulezzz.

And don't forget about very rare track 'Jonny L (Part One)' from 'Future Tracks' cassette compilation. Super acid sound, one of my favourite acid tracks!

Well, what can I say about ‘I’m Leavin’? This is one of the best jungle releases I ever heard! The tracks are wonderful, beautiful, great! These perfect beats, amazing vocals and pure jungle spirit made me a fan for all my future life. I would take only this vinyl with me on an island to live there for years.

Albums... ‘Sawtooth’, conceptual and extreme in sound, ‘Magnetic’, even more extreme an experimental – ‘Focus’ uses didgeridoo sound, rap in ’20 Dergees’ is perfect. ’24 Hours A Day’ has more ‘linear’ structure but features Jonny’s first vocal appearances.

Jonny has very beautiful voice – check ‘Listen Right’, ‘Back To Your Roots’, ‘Joe’ or ‘Cumberbatch And Wires’ and ask yourself how many electronic musicians have a comparable talent?

Genius, real genius. One of the best electronic music producers in the world, his place is near famous artists, but he goes his own way, creates labels, check new horizons of sound, and makes the music that he likes to make, not what people like to hear.

I have to say that at first I really wasn't into Jonny L. Then I heard 'I'm Leaving' and I was a fan for life. Now I worship at his temple. His 'Magnetic' album is essential and his EP's are even more essential. Great producer!!
