Kansas City Techno
An avid music collector and all around music snob, Josh takes a lot of pride in his musical selections. His collection of music and mixing skill has been evolving since 1999, moving through different shades of techno, house, minimal, and left field. You may have seen him playing on 4 turntables with Rob Lee, molding sounds capes with Avant Du Futur, or layering techno with vocalist Alaska. His commitment to quality music and accurate presentation are apparent in his performances, making for a multi-dimensional listening experience that shouldn’t be missed.
