Josh has played in several countries like Venezuela, Miami (during the WMC 2005), Andorra and now in Barcelona. Here is where his LIVE and producing stage begins.His indefinable and contagious style is a mixture of happy minimal-electro-tech-house tunes with deep basslines and cool fresh minimal sounds that flow with a funky kick.
