Jonny L - 27 Hours A Day

He first came to prominence with the rave single "Hurt You So" in 1992. He signed to XL Recordings, the same label as The Prodigy and SL2. He produced more rave singles such as "Ooh I like it".

In 1995, he changed direction making drum and bass records, beginning with "I'm Leavin'". With that he produced two other EP's before his first album "Sawtooth" in 1997. From this album, the hit single, "Piper" proved to be a success even though it was extreme in its sound, although on the album there were other electro influenced tracks. By 1998 the album "Magnetic" carried on in a similar vein.

He left XL to form his own label "Piranhna". Another album, "27 Hours A Day" followed with the George W. Bush sampled single "Let's Roll".

Jonny also produced Truesteppers "Out Of Your Mind", the hit single featuring Dane Bowers and Victoria Beckham, and also produced "Who Do You Think You Are" and "Do It Till We Drop" for S Club's 2002 album "Seeing Double".
