Roll up roll up! Just Jack is very proud to present one of the pioneers of electronic music into the depths of the Dojo Lounge!
Wow... where do we start? In the early days Josh Wink started as an east coast phenomenon, cutting his teeth on the Philadelphia music scene of the late 80s and early 90s. In 1990 Josh teamed up with fellow Philly jock, King Britt and released E-culture's "Tribal Confusion" for respected New York based indie label, Strictly Rhythm. The record was a surprising commercial success and established both DJs as artists to watch on the global dance music scene.
In 1994 Wink again teamed up with King Britt and recorded "Liquid Summer", a single that became an instant cult classic. In the same year the duo set up Ovum, a label that to this day, continues to push forward the boundaries of electronic music.
1995 was an especially good year for Josh. He scored 3 consecutive European smashes - all out of his modest 16-track bedroom studio - which unquestionably took dance music to a dizzying plateau. First came "Don't Laugh" - recorded as Winx and issued via Nervous Records - where Josh took a minimal techno beat and looped an incessant sample of a whacko laughing his head off. It was a stroke of sheer genius. The single broke down international language barriers and eventually sold more than half a million copies.
Invitations to spin at prestigious nightspots all over the world have been pouring in ever since, but as his career has progressed, he has stayed true to his roots, never selling out and always maintaining his integrity, always coming home to his beloved Philadelphia.
There are so many reasons why we love this man and we haven't even mentioned "Stay Out All Night" or "Higher State of Consciousness"! We've been on his case since we first started running parties and now we finally have him in our sights. Celebrating more than 15 years of Ovum and in a club as intimate as Dojos, this is an unmissable party!
