My name is John Johnson aka DJ John Johnson from Baltimore. I began my journey as a DJ in 1980 at age 13. House Music was not really exposed to me at that time so I began my journey with Hip Hop, Rap and RnB. I initially began playing house parties in my city and received my first residency at a nightclub called “ The Baltimore OakTree” in 1989 in which I played every Friday and Saturday from 8pm to 2am for 2 ½ years. Our equipment consisted of 3 twelves and a Urei mixer with 16 Cerwin Vega subs pushing the power. That was one of my greatest accomplishments. I can play all styles of music but my passion is “House”. That’s where I spend the most time and effort. I love what this sound does to others. Creating an atmosphere of peace and freedom without worry. I truly get energized thru watching others groove as I play. I also have experience with all levels of equipment set ups.

The Baltimore Oaktree (1989 – 1991) residency
