A critically acclaimed tastemaker, the collaborations between Joe and his carefully selected vocalists are always seamless. With a heavy nod towards a highly anticipated project on the horizon, 2019 has been the year that Joe Hertz sets pace.
Having grown up around iconic clubbing figures, (Joe’s father is legendary Electronic and Dance music champion Pete Tong), Joe enjoyed DJ’ing from an early age, sneaking into Fabric to take in jungle and DnB raves as a teenager.
As well as being immersed in UK dance culture, Joe also had access to the latest Hip Hop and R&B records from the US at home, and quickly began to build his production skills, showing an incredibly rich awareness of a plethora of musical heritages. Applying a unique piece of London to every track, Joe developed his own unique sound - and one which is loved all over, with support rolling in from the likes of Complex, Wonderland, Nylon, Pigeons and Planes, FACT, Billboard, BBC 1XTRA, Capital XTRA, Rinse FM and beyond.
