As a young boy he started playing drums, and then continued with piano lessons.

In the mid 90´s he discovered a new type of music that would change his life forever. The music he heard was called deep house, and struck Jonathan's heart immediately. Since then he started to produce music in a more serious matter and in 1997 he got in touch with Johan Bacto, which later formed the label PlackTown Sounds. Jonathan was now known as Ronin, and made a lot of releases on the PlackTown Sounds imprint. With a lot of great feedback from radiostations, magazines, DJ´s and even television, Ronin continued on the path of sensual, moody deep house.

His music was reaching out to the world, and in the year of 2001 he released a mini LP on Chris Grays label, Deep4Life in Chicago. Chris gave Jonathan his second artist name J. Axel, and he was now focusing on vocal deep house, and he started working with the talented vocalist Astrid Suryanto. He still produced instrumental deep house as Ronin, and in 2002 he made a release on Timewriter´s label Driftwood. In late 2004 Jonathan completed his album, J. Axel - Deepness Is Served, which was released 31:st of July 2006 on the German record label Bohéme. This album was later digitally re-released by Plastic City.

Jonathan has released on various labels, contributed with music to many compilations, as well as DJ:ing in alot of clubs over the years. His releases and DJ-sets have always been criticaly acclaimd, and its a fact that he will keep on delivering music with precence and luxury, which touches mind, body and soul.

Full Moon
J. Axel Lyrics

Up in the sky it's a full moon
Lookin for guidance I'm lookin for clues
When I take it solo I find that I lose
When I look for a partner I find that I lose
What to do, what to do
Lettin God guide me I listen
Takin the good with the bad and I sit in it
Runnin way from trauma I was fucked up I was hidden
Sittin in a fantasy or nightmare just dependin how you spin it
Wanted change I'm rushin to the finish

Cruisin cross the country I was brazen also skiddish
Rooted in the darkness like the people I was out to get
A hypocrite, Time to just introspect
Take sin and insurrect
Then I will resurrect
I'm flyin around in the planes I escape
I'm learnin some lessons the takeaways shape
I take on the dark yeah I face on the pain
I hone in on demons the Cain becomes slain
RIP to my evil ways
May you never take this space again
Take my zen
I just want a better day
For everyone
It makes me overwhelmed and do things out of order
Stash the songs call me a hoarder
Bipolar swordsman I'm on the border
Solar explorer but still a loner
Romantic adorer but I exploit it
All these problem holdin me back from true greatness
I need to use this full moon to escape it
Change the path on which I'm fated
Takin a sage leaf and then I blaze it
Prayin to save me I see things changin
Layers of ego they leave me say less
Jottin down sayins deep in my journal paper
I'm a demon slayer
And I mean it tame em
I feel guilt but shameless
This prayer will lead to greatness
I'm takin my fate and I will change it
Up in the sky it's a full moon
Lookin for guidance I'm lookin for clues
When I take it solo I find that I lose
When I look for a partner I find that I lose
What to do, what to do
Lettin God guide me I listen
Takin the good with the bad and I sit in it
