Johnson’s story starts in Peterborough, New Hampshire, toiling away as a teenage producer creating bedroom beats inspired by the work of heroes like DJ Premier, the RZA, and Pete Rock. At the age of 18, he moved to Toronto to work at his brother Oliver Johnson’s legendary Hive Studio. Here his young mind was exposed to a new world of professional music production, producing everything from sound effects for Family Channel cartoon spots to made-to-order beats for tv shows and commercials. His trusted ear in the studio has been in development since: Johnson’s obsession with discovering and manipulating new and unfamiliar sounds has made him one of the most dynamic producers in the city.
