Jonny L

Jon Lisners (often spelled as Jonny L), is a British drum and bass producer. He has also released music under the alias of Mr L and was one half of the UK garage duo True Steppers. 
He first came to prominence with the 'rave' single "Hurt You So," in 1992 (That single would later be sampled and looped in the 1997 track "Oh Boy," by The Fabulous Baker Boys). 
Before that he was an in-house engineer at Strongroom studios in London. He signed to XL Recordings, the same label as The Prodigy and SL2. He produced more rave singles such as "Ooh I Like It," and "Make Me Work." 
In 1995, he changed direction making drum and bass records, beginning with "I'm Leavin.'" With that he produced two other EPs 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 next album, "Magnetic," carried on in a similar vein. 
He left XL to form his own record label, Piranha Records in 1999. He continued to produce singles, but these had a darker sound to them. He released a single on the record label Metalheadz in 2002 titled "Synkronize" / "Phreak." "Synkronize," featured vocal sampling speculated to be from Brian Harvey of East 17. Another album, "27 Hours A Day," followed with the George W. Bush-sampling single "Let's Roll," in 2003.

==Links to Peel==
Peel didn't play any of Jonny L's music when he was doing breakbeat tracks in the early 90's. It was only when he was producing drum and bass music in the late 90's, that Peel became aware of his work and played many of his records on his radio programmes between 1997 and 2003.
