Bio
Joel Fowler
Josh is a wonderful writer connecting the dots between the roots of electronic music and where it's going today.
Hisham Dahud
Josh was a joy to have onboard the Fame House team. From the get-go, he was placed in a role that required him to take ownership of his progress in an unusually challenging circumstance, working remotely from Berlin with a considerably high profile client. He was forced to forge his own path, and did so with flying colors. He was easy to work with, contributed plenty of inspired ideas, and got along well with both the FH team and his clients teams. Josh is exceptionally well-spoken, approachable, genuine, and always worked well in collaborative environments - often taking the lead in sharing ideas. I'd highly recommend him to any team, he'd be a huge asset.
