their own biography
the whole biography
Joiah is an Italian–Colombian singer, producer, and DJ based in New York whose approach to electronic music feels closer to ritual than performance. She gravitates toward the spaces where eras, textures, and energies blur — between 90s trance echoes, cosmic house sensibilities, raw house breaks, and the shadowy pulse of techno. Never tied to a single lane, she moves through styles like currents, guided by intuition, symbolism, and emotion. As a producer, she released “Alchemic Amazon” on BSR, featuring a remix by Paolo Mosca, alongside several independent projects. Her collaborations include work with Muted Noise (with Roger Gerressen), Picnic Records, Klassified, vocal contributions to Gojnea76, an appearance on Nathan Melja’s Djo Sinego, and a guest mix for R&S Records. She has also delivered mixes for The Lot Radio. Joiah holds a residency with Signal and Apollo Studio while further expanding her presence within the global underground landscape. She has performed across the Netherlands, Italy, Spain, Germany, Belgium, Portugal, France, and the United States, and has shared the stage with acts such as Mochakk, Deniro, Gojnea76, Sandrien, BELLA, VTSS, and more. In New York, she curates the underground series Sudden Logic and hosts Talks With Goddesses — The Artemisia Collective, a podcast devoted to female empowerment in the arts and sports, exploring intuition, identity, and the transformative force of community. “Joiah’s artistry is like a galaxy brain-scaled explosion of sounds. She weaves Cali, Colombia’s bustling markets into ear candy with jazzy breaks, acid twirls, and dreamy vocals. Picture yourself vibing from a chill house party to a neon-lit club, all in one track. Indeed, Joiah’s eclecticism appeals as much to the listener as the dancer, which grants her a PHD in spirit lifting.” - Best Kept Secret Music FestivalTheir RA profile lists Future Culture Records, BSR, Muted Noise and Picnic Records.Recently at Le Bain, Signal, Apollo Studio · often with CAMILLA, Armii1n, Monk, none of them here that night

Influenced by the sound of Chicago House as well as the Riviera House scene of the ’90s and early ’00s, he's known for a melting pot of analog synths, groovy basslines, and syncopated rhythms. His sets travel through classic House, Acid, Detroit Techno, and Progressive House—striking the right balance between cheeky grooves and psychedelic soundscapes, taking the dancefloor on a journey of high energy and big smiles. Between 2021 and 2023, he ran a residency at MusicBox Lisbon focused on connecting the Italian and Portuguese scenes. Besides his regular shows in Lisbon and Milan, throughout the years he has had the chance to bring his sound around Europe and Asia, playing in places like Bangkok, Seoul, Tokyo, Osaka, London, and Sofia, among others—sharing the line-up with artists like Emmanuelle, Kamma & Masalo, Hunee, Don Carlos, Satoshi Tomiie, and the living legend Nicky Siano.

Secret Grapes is an all-vinyl DJ with a decade of experience as a collector of atmospheric and sensual records from the 90s and early 2000s. A deep-digger of overlooked classics and rare gems unearthed from the dustiest of crates, her intuitive and knowledgeable understanding of music across genres stems from an active engagement with nightlife that is deeper than a career but a vocation. A rising talent with a veteran ear, her obsession with 90s progressive house finds refinement within an overlooked genre.
