JOHNNY BLUE
Mikelabella Rec. / Cyprus
Johnny Blue comes from Cyprus.
He started dj-ing 20 years ago. His first influence was rock and especially psychedelic rock (Pink Floyd, Ozric Tentacles, etc). In 2000 he got into the electronic scene with a main interest in chill out and psychedelic trance music.
Being influenced by several music cultures (rock, dub, reggae, electronica, psy-trance, chill out), he developed an unique style by smoothly blending sounds in colourful and sensational music journeys.
Johnny is one of the senior representatives on the launch, establishment and uprising of Cyprus' psychedelic music scene.

In 2011 Johnny joined Mikelabella Records where he works as A/R Manager. His first VA compilation titled 'Planet Blue' was released in December 2012 and the 2nd one titled 'Blue Moon' in April 2014. In the beginning of 2013, he became a label dj of Peak Records.
In January 2015 he entered Sofa Beats roster. His VA 'Selections' for Sofa Beats Records has been
released in early 2017.
He is also resident dj since 2011 at Digitally Imported Psychill (di.fm/psychill) with the monthly
