JOHN MONKMAN
John Monkman
John Monkman is a London-based producer, composer and live performer, US-born and UK-bred, and the founder of the Beesemyer Music label. Breaking out in 2015, he caught the global dance-music community's attention with two acclaimed releases: his Beatport #1 remix of Solomon Grey's 'Twilight' on Anjunadeep and 'PHØENIX', a collaboration with Pete Tong released on Germany's Kompakt. His productions have since landed on some of electronic music's most respected imprints — Kompakt, Ellum, Anjunadeep, Crosstown Rebels, Last Night On Earth and his own Beesemyer Music. Beyond the dancefloor, John handled the bulk of the programming on Bryan Ferry's album 'OLYMPIA', working alongside members of Radiohead, Chic and Pink Floyd. Self-taught on the technical side after years of piano, drums and guitar, his melodic, deep and progressive house draws on early influences like Boards of Canada, Aphex Twin and Pink Floyd. He continues to release regularly, with his latest single 'Trace' arriving on Kompakt in May 2026, and now works between studios in London and Ibiza.
