Pureink presents jozif
We said we’ll be back and we are with a fresh and new sound. Having been referred to as “one of my favourite DJ’s” by none other than Digweed himself and having been a regular on the much talked about annual event, The Sunset Cruise with Digweed & Friends playing alongside Guy J, Hernan Cattaneo, Nick Warren, Denis A...Pureink presents you jozif.
Looking for organic house music with a human feel, something to warm your heart but tantalize your senses as well? jozif has cemented himself as a unique musical voice in the world of electronic music. His music is some of the most beautiful you will hear. Meshing together the sounds of lush strings, emotive pianos and golden synths coming together to bring you a sound unlike anything you have heard before.
Building on the early success of releases like the Sunrise EP on Infine, the first releases on Fist or Finger (the label he co-runs with fabric’s Craig Richards) the summer anthem that was 'Twilight' with vocalist Terri Walker on More Music, jozif was unsurprisingly snapped up by LA’s suitably sultry Culprit for a brace of EPs that saw him further hone his richly musical style. Since then he has been enlisted by the cultured likes of mobilee, Suol and Compost for remixes, and the way he carefully permeates his music with such serene and slo-mo ambiance yet imbues each track with a cheeky dancefloor bump has seen everyone from Sasha to Giles Peterson, Andrew Weatherall to Damian Lazarus fall in love.
Having been a DJ since as far back as 1996, it made sense that the legendary Balance series came calling for jozif when they wanted to kick-off a new mix series in early 2013. What he turned in was a stunningly emotional and heartfelt mix that proved just how sensitive and soothing electronic music can be, at the same time, of course, as subtly making you move your body. For proof of his artistic ability in the booth, you only need ask anyone who has seen him play at places like Space Ibiza, London’s foremost fabric and many other festivals around Asia and both Americas.
Currently co-writing with two venerated artists from the scene that cannot yet be named, there is much more on the horizon for jozif. Crosstown Rebels (for a second time, following the keenly sampled found sound delights of The 508 in 2012), Matt Tolfrey’s Leftroom and Silicone Soul’s Darkroom Dubs are all to release more of his music in the coming months, and he will continue to tour the world as a DJ, making people dance to, smile at his music.
Come play with us and remember, enjoy the difference, enjoy Pureink.
