Josh Wink

This electronic-music pioneer from Philadelphia has remained a strongly blinking blip on the ever-shifting sonar screen of big-room dance-sound enthusiasts, from his emergence as a live-recording college favorite in the early Nineties to his more recent minimalist house tracks. Wink’s latest album, Profound Sounds: Volume 3, dropped this past May and is a bit disappointing in its extreme reductivism, though Wink’s own mix of Radiohead’s “Everything in Its Right Place” is as great as its source material. Nonetheless Wink’s live performances showcase his timeless talent for crowd pleasing and span the range of microtrends within trance, techno, and house.
