Bo Johnson (dj-Vox) - dj/producer/remixer
dj-Vox, a.k.a. Bo Johnson, moved to Boston from the UK in 2000 and has steadily made a name for himself in the local dance music scene. Originally from Houston, Texas, Vox discovered music early in life in the form of classic rock and heavy metal. These styles serve as a backbone to his sound today. This love of music guided him to become a guitarist as a teenager and eventually lead him to study at Berklee College of Music. While living in London, Vox discovered electronic dance music and soon traded in his guitar for a set of turntables. By involving these sounds, Vox creates a transcendent feeling on the dance floor. His intuitive track selection and technical skills allow him to maintain the flow on a dance floor for hours on end.
Now a Berklee grad and an up-and-coming DJ/producer, Vox is 1/4 of Boston deep house label, Bassmint Recordings which celebrated its first release (Bumpin' N Jackin') in March of 2006. With appearances at Rise, Bump (Phoenix Landing, Cambridge, MA), 33, and Bassmint's monthly residency at the Red Door (NH), Vox has grown a loyal fan base. His recent WMC double promo mix has received nothing but excellent reviews and was just featured on Slanted House Radio podcast and Bounce Beat Radio in London. With a bang on New Years Eve opening set at Rise, Vox has definitely made his imprint on the Boston dance music scene. As he continues to research and evolve his sound, you can be sure to see and hear more from dj-Vox in the months and years to come.
