Paul Johnson, one of the essential house musicians, dies aged 50

"Paul Johnson’s signature meld of disco loops, overdriven kicks and unfiltered sleaze was nothing short of alchemy. Even when chopping up the vocals of Leroy Burgess or Roy Ayers, Johnson’s records simmered with raucous charisma, a gift that made him stand out amongst greats of the ’90s house scene" - DJ Mag writes about Paul Johnson, who died aged 50 "leaving behind a chasm in house music".
