The dance music world is buzzing about MAKJ (Mackenzie Johnson). For those in the know this is hardly surprising – at the young age of twenty-four, the hotly-tipped electronic producer and DJ has already racked up SIX Beatport Top 10 singles since last year. Not to mention MAKJ’s intriguing background – as a teenager, the California native years prior existed as a pro racecar driver based in China.

After three nonstop months zig-zagging the globe, twenty-four-year-old producer and DJ MAKJ just announced his Fall/Winter headlining tour touching down in over thirty cities in North America. Now, with a Remix EP due out this autumn for MAKJ’s 2014 single “Let’s Get F*cked Up,” a huge collab with legendary MC Lil Jon on Ultra Music (details coming soon), the global dance music superstar-in-the-making MAKJ shows no signs of slowing down.

Since honing his craft with the late, great DJ AM, MAKJ has pursued a music career at breakneck speed, racking up a slew of chart-topping tracks in the process. MAKJ’s staggering portfolio boasts all-star collaborations with Hardwell, Bassjackers, even Lil Jon, and releases on Bingo Players’ Hysteria Records, Hardwell’s Revealed, Sander Van Doorn’s Doorn Records, Michael Woods’ Diffused, Ultra Music and Robbie Rivera’s Juicy Music. MAKJ’s productions have received support from electronic music heavyweights Hardwell, Tiesto, Afrojack, Porter Robinson, Chuckie, Avicii, Laidback Luke, Nicky Romero, Michael Woods, Nervo, Bingo Players, Sander Van Doorn, W&W, Showtek, David Guetta and many others. On top of his many other hats, MAKJ hosts a weekly Clear Channel Evolution radio show airing on 101.7 FM Boston and iHeartRadio.com.

Following MAKJ’s 2014 sold-out “Let’s Get F*cked Up Tour” across Europe, the young artist recently embarked on his first-ever headlining North American tour, including stops at Webster Hall, Ruby Skye, Beta Nightclub and coveted top-billing slots at Coachella, Ultra Music Festival, Northern Lights Festival, Euphoria Festival and more. After kicking off in Waterloo last week, MAKJ’s current tour will touch down in Montreal, Las Vegas, Kansas City, Minneapolis, Vancouver, Philadelphia, NYC, Chicago, Boston, and includes festival performances such as Voodoo Festival in NOLA and Groove Cruise in San Pedro , along with a handful of shows in Mexico. MAKJ’s full tour routing is below.
