Movement In Still Life

Grammy Nominated Composer and Technologist. I am a man that believes sound can change the world. I seek, I learn

**“Salty Lights is all about music with soul—the kind that moves you, whether it’. s deep, melodic future garage, hypnotic downtempo, or the raw energy of jungle from the mid-to-late ’90s. I’ve been immersed in electronic music for decades, from the underground sounds of Parkway, Ray of Madness, and Break Junkies to the after-hours beach parties on the Jersey Shore and late-night walks through NYC post-Fantasia.

Music isn’t about trends—it’s about truth. Without soul, it’s just noise. That’s why I dig into genres like UK garage, liquid drum & bass, trap soul, and more, always searching for the heartbeat in the beat.

Check out my mixes on djay Pro, explore my curated playlists, and vibe to tracks that can chill your mind, set the mood, or fuel an all-night session. Whether you’re reminiscing about the golden era of raves or discovering new sounds, you’ll find something real here.

Much love—drop in, follow along, and let’s ride the frequencies together.”**

The creative source of a producer yet to be named

Embracing all genres from around the world and beyond

The shimmer of a beat the smooth edge of a flowing groove, Dance music that seamlessly emerges from an Electronic belly brimming with Funk, Soul and Depth. Sounds which materialise in mixes by Belfast based DJ Stuart Johnston play-listed over the last 6 months by online Dance Music radio stations such as Frisky Radio and Proton Radio. 

Submerging himself into a world of Beats, Grooves and Rhythms in the early 90's the Belfast DJ frequented clubs such as The Art College Belfast, Kelly's Portrush, and Circus Circus Banbridge, Stuart was greatly influenced by the resident DJ's who played these clubs, David Holmes, Iain McCready, Chris Hurley, Glen Molloy and DJ Jacko. 

His recent sets span the Deep and Melodic side of Electronica and Techier productions by artists such as Tale Of Us, Maya Jane Coles, Solomun, Tigerskin, Maceo Plex & Sasse. He cites DJ's such as Desyn Masiello, Ricky Ryan, Luke Fair, Tom Morgan, Hisham Zahran & Dana Bergquist as contemporary peers. 

Does the world still need DJ's we hear you ask ? Just as a disco ball needs to spin and feet need to hit the floor. It appears so.
