MySpace a place for friends

USA born and raised, Joe Musser aka DJ Joe Mama, has been rapidly moving up the ranks of the DJ ladder over the past 2 years. Joe's roots in music can be traced back to the days when he was accomplished cellist by the age 9. Lacking the necessary guidance to push forward, Joe quickly adapted to the production side, and various support roles in the nightlife industry, starting with stints working for Prince @ Glam Slam, as well as Paisley Park. From there, his interest in a hybridization of electronic, rock, and pop pushed him into the world of today's dance music. Influences ranging from 80's New Wave, to Psychedelic 60's rock, to electronica can be deciphered in Joe's mix selections. Joe's first experience came whilst vacationing on the infamous island of Ibiza. Lounging around one the islands villa parties, he was befriended by one of the hosts and invited to Pacha later that evening. When they arrived, he was graciously offered an opportunity to mix a few CD's on the terrace to the hundred or so glitterati swaying to the sun-drenched Balearic beats. 2005 saw Joe again in Miami with his highly successful Plastic Sex afterhours, which sold out in a record 25 minutes. Joe was also invited to join friend Steve Porter as part of his global Porterhouse events. Back in Boston, a new nightclub, Underbar was launched. Touting a world class sound system developed by Angel Moraes and TKO Sound, Joe was selected as a monthly resident alongside Angel. In 2006, Joe's collaboration with Matt Johnson as Matt & The Mammal, have been picked up by System Recordings for single distribution, and their compilation Dirty, Dirty House Vol. 2. His productions had recieved Global canings from the likes of Desyn Masiello, Steve Porter, Mark Farina, and swarms of others. These quality tunes caught the attention of promoters worldwide, as he was subsequently booked to tour Asia and Europe in 2007. Playing with the global A-list DJs is no strange territory for Joe as Roger Sanchez, Sander Kleinenberg, Tom Stephan, Steve Porter, D:Fuse, Lee-Cabrera, Derrick Carter, Mark Knight & others have all shared the decks with Mr. Mama over the last few years. And so the saga continues... Joe's uncompromising blend of soulful, Balearic infused house has struck a nerve both with those who have been to Ibiza, and those who dream of music in paradise...
