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.

On this lazy Sunday when the clouds can't hold back the sun
And the butterflies flutter by oh oh we are one
Like the ocean into the sea baby slide in next to me
And my mind goes back to a place and time like this
The wind in your hair sunshine lips
Tell me honeybee would you stay awhile with me
This place this moment this time
As the sun drops her head for the day

Let see what the stars have to say
Fly high on an ocean breeze
Just close your eyes and believe
Like the ocean into the sea oh baby slide in next to me
And my mind goes back to a place and time like this
The wind in your hair sunshine lips
Tell me honeybee would you stay awhile with me
This place this moment this time
This place this moment this time
And my mind goes back to the place and time like this
The wind in your hair and the sunshine on your lips
Tell me honeybee would you stay awhile with me
This place this moment this time
This place this moment this time
(Stay awhile with me)
This place this moment this time
This place this moment this time
(Stay awhile with me)
With the wind in you hair and the sun on your lips
Oh Baby we are one when we are one
When we're underneath the sun
(Stay awhile with me)
With the wind in you hair and the sun on your lips
Tell me tell me tell me honeybee
Would you stay awhile with me

(Stay awhile with me)
This Place this moment this time
