When he turned 17 years old, Joel Campos was deeply thrilled by the tapes his cousin from FCommunication gave him at Summer holidays in Paris. He started learning everything about electronic dance music, raves and hot nights out in clubs and at parties, like Automatik nights at Rex Club in Paris, Locomia in Albufeira Algarve, L’ Anfer in Dijon France, Rocks Club at Porto or DJs such as Laurent Garnier, Vitalic and, for sure, his cousin Dj Tonio. Joel made his way into the electronic music listening to records from labels like Axis, Code Red, Sinewave or Tresor Berlin. At 18 his cousin offer him a Roland MC 303 and he started producing his own tracks. After 8 years producing, sound editing and working as a roadie, Joel made his first steps into mixing at friends parties and then at hometown bars and clubs. Nowadays and as a DJ, Joel Campos does not hesitate to combine Minimal House and Electro Tech, light and hard grooves with hot, futuristic club sounds.
