DJ Joshua publishes his track list for Floating Beats 724.

Floating Beats returns with episode 724, presented by Joshua. Broadcast on Scientific Sound Asia, the series continues to champion underground electronic music, DJ culture and live events across Asia while connecting globally rooted sounds with an international audience.

Born in Évora, Portugal, Joshua has been immersed in electronic music since the mid-1990s. His extensive archive of vinyl, cassettes, CDs and digital releases reflects decades of dedication to sound and a deep connection to underground culture. From early crate digging to countless hours behind the decks, his musical outlook has always been guided by curiosity, depth and a wide-ranging appreciation of electronic music.

Across his career, Joshua has explored a broad spectrum of styles including house, techno, drum and bass and chillout. During quieter periods for Portugal’s rave movement, he played an active role in sustaining the underground through grassroots events and close collaboration with fellow DJs and producers, helping to keep creative momentum alive when the local scene needed it most.

After stepping away from music to focus on family life, Joshua returned with renewed purpose through Floating Beats, a radio and podcast series that quickly re-established his international presence. The show has since evolved into a respected platform for melodic, progressive and deeper electronic sounds, attracting a global listenership and reflecting his continually developing musical vision.

In recent years, Joshua has expanded his artistic identity through several aliases, each representing a distinct sonic direction. As K-Joshua, the Hopeful Mind EP explored emotive deep house. Under the Joshua Fernand name, the Logic Move EP moved into hypnotic and raw techno territory. His Joshua Marian project delivered soulful, groove-led house through the 2025 release Chance With Soul, while Joshua Onairam focuses on cinematic and melodic textures, as heard on Melodic Doubts.

His most recent productions signal a confident evolution in style. Shiny Night, released in 2025 under the Joshua Onairam alias, blends progressive melody with emotional flow, reinforcing a growing interest in atmosphere, narrative and musical storytelling. These releases build naturally on the foundations laid by Hopeful Mind and Logic Move, marking a continued refinement of his deep house and techno sound.

In 2024, Joshua launched JFLM Recordings, a label created to release his own music while collaborating with underground artists who share his commitment to authenticity, depth and expression. Together, Floating Beats and JFLM Recordings reflect a long-standing dedication to meaningful electronic music, offering listeners an ongoing and carefully curated creative journey.

Floating Beats 724 opens as a pure throwback, diving straight into foundational electronic music with Electronic Discussion and Die Kosmischen Kuriere, setting the tone for a session rooted in early Techno and Deep House innovation. These selections immediately reflect the era when machine funk, minimal structures and raw emotion defined underground club culture.

The energy intensifies through timeless Techno statements such as Positive Education, Sleep Baby Sweet and Babylon, where hypnotic repetition and stripped-back arrangements became tools for maximum dancefloor impact. These tracks capture the spirit of late 90s and early 2000s Techno, balancing futurism with physical groove.

Mid-set highlights continue with classics like The Soul, The Stand and Loop, reinforcing the raw, functional aesthetics that shaped European and Detroit dancefloors alike. Moments of Deep House warmth surface through Save Me, adding contrast and emotional depth without breaking the momentum.

The episode closes with enduring club weapons, including Metropolis and Altered States, tracks that remain as powerful today as when they first emerged. Floating Beats 724 stands as a respectful nod to Techno and Deep House history, celebrating timeless records that continue to influence contemporary underground music.

Catch his live radio show on Monday, January 5, 2026, from 6 to 8 p.m. Indochina Time (ICT). Missed it? No worries, tune in to the replay on Friday from 6 to 8 a.m. (ICT).
