A blasting welcome to our new Resident Joss Martin from Mexico on Radio Porto Montenegro.
Everything can be a life symphony, kind of a soundtrack. Music is a way to express art coming from the soul. Dancing is part of the traditional life celebration. “the consciousness dances and the body thinks"....Joss Martin is a DJ and Producer from Mexico, a man who has travelled to many different countries to study and live. After spending his former growth years in Mexico, he went on to experience many different parts of the globe, graduating from the school of Visual Arts in London and mastered his photography skills in Paris. When he returned to Mexico, he really began to learn that he was a true creative soul. Understanding, appreciating and loving his beautiful mixed culture
more than he could have imagined.
This ignited something inside and for many years he experimented creatively and worked as a professional photographer, music-video and documentary director and editor. This landed him in India for a while and after returning to Mexico again a few years ago, he started spinning records in a local bar. He went from carrying turn-tables to gigs to becoming a resident DJ of 7 venues in some of the trendiest areas across Mexico City.
Music was a passion and a hobby for him, but he never thought that at any point producing and playing music would consume and complete his life.
He plays the music of the "sounds of the world" in techno interpretation, where important is still a powerful techno-tribal rhythm. It’s mixed with rock guitars, electro sounds and live recordings from all over the globe. Both his Live and DJ set is an electronic act, a journey based on his original material. The main component is harmony, expressed through a combination of rhythm, melody and organic sounds. Decisive and spontaneous, Joss Martin never fails to create a complete special atmosphere - an experience in which “the consciousness dances and the body thinks".
Playing festivals and renowned clubs in many cities, he went on to secure consecutive tours in Israel, Germany, France, Netherlands, England, Spain, Switzerland, Mexico and Russia. Sharing the stage with artist like Acid Pauli, Viken Arman, Jenifer Cardini, Matanza, Nicola Cruz, El Búho, Nu, Geju, Lee Burridge, Yokoo, Concret, Mira, Just Emma, Kerala Dust and many more magical people.
“I have loved music since I remember. Sounds, rhythms, ambients, nature, noisy sirens and the speeches shared by the cities. With all this information, I like to think of the romantic idea that everything can be a life symphony, kind of a soundtrack. Music is a way to express art coming from the soul and it can affect us in many different ways. Dancing is part of the traditional life celebration and I’m blessed, honoured and more than happy for being part of this incredible journey. A journey that I can share everywhere the music goes.” - Joss Martin.
