Biography

DJ Spoony is the stage name of Johnathan Joseph (born 25 June 1970, Hackney, London[1][2]) who is a British DJ, and former BBC Radio 1 presenter.

Spoony\'s career started on London Underground (a leading pirate radio station in the mid-nineties). He then joined Kiss 100, where he became a member of the Dreem Teem with Mikee B and Timmi Magic.

His popular moniker, Spoony, was coined during his youth, where he was known to give profound analyses of his friends\' characters after a chance encounter with the films of Ingmar Bergman.
