Michael Jonzun

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Michael Jonzun, a key musician and producer of electro, and especially electrofunk, was born in Florida, and formed the Jonzun Crew in Boston with Steve Thorpe and Gordy Worthy. In the early 1980s, the group recorded seminal electro dance tracks including Pack Jam (Look Out for the OVC) and Space Cowboy. He made several more LPs with less commercial success through the 1980s and produced many other artists' recordings. His brother and frequent collaborator is Maurice Starr, mastermind of New Edition and New Kids on the Block; Michael Jonzun contributed to early tracks by both groups. He also worked on Peter Wolf's Lights Out and Tom Browne's Rockin' Radio. In 1986, he left the band to pursue a solo career.
