-----)> i am the DJ that has no sound  <"(-_-)">

Jonnie King has truly found himself in the City of Angels. As a true artist of his craft, he showcases an extremely versatile range of sounds that play through dark synthwave, melodic techno to chuggin' Disco. This is why he is known as “the DJ who has no sound”. Refusing to pigeon-hole himself into one genre, he chooses to create an auditory playground for his audience, taking them on a journey like never heard before. With a music collection spanning the last 20 years of electronic music, cherry-picking selections with a fine-toothed comb, you are sure to be enthralled in a brand new experience every time you hear him.

Jonnie’s resume includes festivals such as Coachella, BPM, Burning Man, Lightning in a Bottle, Further Future, WMC & Beyond Wonderland. The talented artist is also known by many under the moniker AEONIX. With the debut of the project, Pulse Radio hailed it as “Top 10 Must See Acts At Further Future.”

Labels he’s released on include Francesca Lombardo’s “Echolette”, who he made the EP with, Just Her’s “Constant Circles”, Manual Music / MNL, Tierra Sounds, Subtract Music, Cenote Records & many more.

Artists such as Goldcap, David Hohme, KMLN, Uone, Clint Stewart, Birds of Mind, Charles Webster, Lonely Boy & Hubert Kirchner are some that have remixed his music.

Jonnie’s music has received rotations from heavyweights such as Sasha, Groove Armada, Hernan Cattaneo, Lee Burridge, Audiofly, Francesca Lombardo, Nick Warren, Jonas Rathsman, Acid Pauli, Eelke Kleijn and Nicole Moudaber to name a few.

He’s received notoriety in publications such as DJ Mag, Pulse Radio, Deep House Amsterdam, Insomniac Events, Pioneer DJ Radio, Ibiza Global Radio, Electronic Groove & MusicIs4Lovers.

Jonnie King’s most recent Tarantino-esque EP, “When The West Was One” on Tierra Sounds reached #2 on Beatport. Upcoming releases include a single on Constant Circles and an EP on Comport, as well a very special remix to be announced soon.

Meshell has changed. So has her music. It’s more peaceful, freer. Her new album, Weather, cloaks itself in the colours of autumn, full of in-between shades and hues and with a certain mildness to it. The singer has let her feelings carry her along. Meshell has never been scared of sharing her most intimate thoughts in explicit or colourful terms that always come from the heart. As ever, she is true to herself. But Weather’s folk sensibility and pregnant acoustic melodies make this a supremely accessible album.

“For a long time I was at war with everyone else. I dug my heels in, I fought hard. That’s all over now. I have my opinions, but they’re no longer a source of conflict with the rest of the world.” On Weather Meshell’s usually deep vocals slip into a register more like a whisper, sharing secrets about subjects that are straightforward, almost light-hearted. She has pared down her style to something like pop. “I started to write this album on the guitar and you can hear it. The final atmosphere’s gentler.”

And then the singer agreed without fuss to put her fate in the hands of a producer. Joe Henry (Ani DiFranco, Bettye Lavette, Allen Toussaint, etc.) helped her reveal a different side to herself. And Meshell went along with this. “I’ve known him since the Bitter album; Craig Street introduced us. I hadn’t called on someone from outside for several albums. But contrary to what everyone thinks, I love getting other opinions, hearing a different point of view and allowing myself to be led by someone with strong ideas. It’s a dialogue. This kind of experience really motivates me.” One might well have imagined her bent protectively over her compositions, her own personal, contradictory and profound world. But she says that she wants to continue this experience in future projects with other musicians. She mentions Brian Eno and Lee Scratch Perry.

She worked the way she likes to with Joe Henry - just two or three takes to capture the spontaneity and freshness of the moment. She is accompanied by Chris Bruce (guitar), Deantoni Parks (drums), Keefus Ciancia (keyboards), Gabe Noel (cello) and guests Jay Bellerose (drums) and Benji Hughes (backing vocals). Meshell recently did some producing herself – for jazz singer Laïka Fatien and rising star Selah Sue. Despite the pop-folk sound of Weather, jazz remains a major source of inspiration. “I love jazz musicians. They’re free; they have no fear. I’ve done pop and there are lots of barriers, lots of holding back. You have to stick to the conventions. Jazz musicians embrace uncertainty and adventure, even in their private lives. They’re more open and often more skilled, both in the studio and on stage.”

On Weather, Meshell sings of the ups and downs of love, one of her favourite subjects. Her heroines are marked by the void left by the loved one (“Object”) or else, like a game of mirrors, pour out their heart about the hurt they have caused others. She does a cover of Leonard Cohen’s “Chelsea Hotel”, dedicated to Janis Joplin, an extremely sad and somewhat sexist song, as well as “Don’t Take My Kindness for Weakness” by Soul Children, a sixties soul band, whose message she has made her own. Her own lyrics are always concise, precise or allusive, full of images and poetry (“I want to be your answer”). “They’re like mantras, some phrases cast to the wind, images that pop into my mind. Then I add the music.” She also talks about the wider world on a few tracks. ‘Oysters’ is about “the change that everyone talks about but never comes”. Meshell explains that “Consumerism is gaining ground all the time. We all live to get a new car or a new computer, but what’s the point?” So, join the great world party? “Not for me,” she replies in Dirty World. “I live two hours from New York. I ran away from all the dirt. There’s a farm where I live, and healthy food. I love cooking – it’s not all that different from making music. You need ingredients, and the greatest pleasure is when you share it share it with others.”
