Информация о артисте
Ян Джонстон (родилась 21 февраля 1968) - английская поп-певица, известная своими совместными работами с электронными музыкантами, в том числе с Оукенфолдом, Тиесто, Полом ван Дайком. На сцене с 1991 в составе дуэта "JJ", с которым записывала диски, в том числе и сольно. В середине 90-х один из её синглов приобрёл Брайан Трансо, известный как BT, и, впечатлённый её голосом, предложил Ян записать совместный трек "Remember".
С этого момента Ян принимала участие в записи многих трансовых композиций. В 1999 году Пол Оукенфолд пригласил её на свой лейбл "Perfecto Records" для записи альбома. Но издание альбома, получившего название "Emerging", много раз откладывалось, выпуск первого сингла с ремиксами был отменён, и единственной официально изданной песней осталась "Silent Words" (2001 год), а альбом так и остался неизданным. Впрочем, ремиксы на "As The Cracks Appear" и отменённый "Superstar" увидели свет на промо-дискax "Perfecto Records", а ремикс на "Unafraid" был включён Оукенфолдом в саундтрек к фильму "Swordfish" (известный как "Пароль "рыба-меч").
После неуспеха с сольником, Ян продолжила активно записываться с разными трансовыми продюсерами, в числе которых Тиесто и Пол ван Дайк, и эти релизы принесли ей определённую известность, вполне заслуженную. И с 2008 года на "Perfecto" вновь начали выходить её сольные синглы. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.

Unreleased material:
Emerging
Jan recorded a second solo album entitled Emerging in 1999/2000 as a result of signing to Paul Oakenfold's Perfecto label. Upon delivering the album to the label it was considered not dancey enough for the club kids Oakenfold wanted to sell it to and the album was shelved and sadly never released. The album track list was:
"Silent Words"
"Emerging"
"Before"
"Alligator Waters"
"Unafraid"
"Superstar"
"Freeze Frame"
"Is Disaster Coming"
"As the Cracks Appear"
"No Excuses"
"21st Century Cinderella"
"God's Plan"
Even though not recorded for Emerging, a track entitled "Flesh" which Johnston wrote and recorded with Brian Transeau in 1997 during the same sessions as "Remember" was decided to be released as the first single on the Perfecto label. The original BT mix is still unreleased to this date. The version used on the single release was a Paul Oakenfold edited version of the famous Tiesto Remix.
"Silent Words" was released as follow up single to "Flesh" in a shortened butchered edit.
Some of the other album tracks did appear on various releases;
"Unafraid" was remixed by Paul Oakenfold and featured on the soundtrack album to the 2001 film Swordfish.
"Superstar" (a cover of the Carpenters classic) was originally intended as the lead single from Emerging and was remixed by Todd Terry amongst others. A video was even made for the song but has never been seen. Remixes of this track appeared on various Oakenfold compilation albums.
Remixes of "As the Cracks Appear" appeared on the Oakenfold vinyl only promo release A Perfecto Summer.
Miscellaneous:
Johnston wrote and recorded a track entitled "Religion" with Paul Oakenfold in 1999 which was performed live but has never seen a commercial release.
A demo entitled "Daring" (which recalled the more Emerging-sound and singer/songwriter feel of earlier material) leaked on the internet in 2005.
