DJ Joshua hails from Évora, Portugal, and is a passionate aficionado of electronic music.

In his formative years, he devoted countless hours to honing his DJing abilities and carefully curating selections from diverse styles like Techno, House, Drum and Bass, and Chillout.
During the 1990s, Portugal experienced considerable resistance to rave music, resulting in its prohibition from radio broadcasts. Nonetheless, DJ Joshua continued to harbour a steadfast enthusiasm for electronic music.
DJ Joshua took on the task of orchestrating House and Techno music events at various clubs and bars. Working closely with his team, he brought his artistic vision to life. His impact reached beyond the local scene, attracting audiences from different cities.
DJ Joshua chose to temporarily suspend his event organizing and radio work following the birth of his first child. He shifted his focus to dedicate himself entirely to his new role as a parent.
As DJ Joshua watched his daughter grow, he experienced a resurgence of passion for music. This renewed inspiration led him to launch a new creative venture: the Floating Beats podcast and radio show.
Since its inception, the program has attracted a dedicated audience, eagerly awaiting Joshua's meticulously curated playlist. Floating Beats, accessible on several prestigious online platforms, has become a nexus for enthusiasts of electronic music.
DJ Joshua, fueled by a profound passion for House music, initiated an additional project called "Velvety Elements" to honour its vibrant emotional core. His podcasts, acclaimed for their intricate dissection of the genre's nuances, have secured him appearances on multiple international House Music and Techno radio stations, including ours.
DJ Joshua believes that music goes beyond mere auditory experiences. He sees it as a potent form of artistic expression that combines various elements to evoke profound emotions and physical reactions. For DJ Joshua, music acts as a spiritual sanctuary, captivating our senses with its delicate harmonies and offering a transformative experience to those who succumb to its allure.
DJ Joshua's goal is to envelop his audience in the essence of the music, creating an atmosphere that captures its unique character and core spirit. His profound passion and unwavering dedication focus on crafting a unified musical journey that profoundly connects with every listener.
He delved deeper into the realm of production and established JFLM Recordings in January 2024 to release his music. His work is consistently crafted with immense soul, dedication, and a passion for electronic music.
