Floating Beats returns with episode 726, presented by DJ Joshua. Broadcast on Scientific Sound Asia, the series continues to support underground electronic music, DJ culture and live events across Asia, connecting globally rooted sounds with an international audience through carefully curated radio programming.
Born in Évora, Portugal, Joshua has been immersed in electronic music culture since the mid-1990s. His long-standing relationship with vinyl, cassettes, CDs and digital formats reflects decades of commitment to underground sound. From early crate digging to extensive time behind the decks, his musical outlook has always been driven by curiosity, depth and a wide-ranging appreciation of electronic music.
Throughout 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 remained active at the grassroots level, collaborating closely with fellow DJs and producers to help sustain the underground scene and preserve creative momentum when wider support was limited.
After stepping away from music to focus on family life, Joshua returned with renewed direction 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, reflecting his ongoing development as a selector while attracting a global listenership.
In recent years, Joshua has expanded his artistic output through multiple aliases, each representing a distinct sonic focus. As K-Joshua, the Hopeful Mind EP explored emotive Deep House. Under the Joshua Fernand name, the Logic Move EP moved toward hypnotic and raw Techno. His Joshua Marian project delivered groove-led, soulful House through the 2025 release Chance With Soul, while Joshua Onairam centres on cinematic and melodic textures, as heard on Melodic Doubts.
His most recent productions signal a confident refinement of this direction. Shiny Night, released in 2025 under the Joshua Onairam alias, blends progressive melody with emotional flow, highlighting a growing emphasis on atmosphere, narrative and musical detail. These releases build naturally on the foundations of Hopeful Mind and Logic Move, reinforcing a coherent evolution across his Deep House and Techno work.
In 2024, Joshua launched JFLM Recordings, a label created to release his own music while collaborating with underground artists who share a commitment to authenticity and depth. Together, Floating Beats and JFLM Recordings reflect a long-term dedication to meaningful electronic music, offering listeners an ongoing and carefully shaped creative journey rooted in underground culture.
Floating Beats 726 opens firmly in raw and hypnotic Techno territory, establishing a deep and functional foundation built on looping rhythms, pressure and restraint. The early section maintains a consistent underground tone, favouring depth and repetition over dramatic shifts, setting the direction for a focused club-driven journey.
As the mix progresses, the emphasis stays locked on Techno (Raw / Deep / Hypnotic), with long-form sequencing designed to build tension gradually. A standout moment comes with Distance Travelled, DJ Joshua’s own production under his Joshua Onairam alias, which reinforces the hypnotic core of the set while adding subtle rhythmic detail and forward momentum.
Midway through, the session continues to explore raw techno textures, before Killer’s Plan, another of Joshua’s productions released under his Joshua Fernand name, introduces a brief melodic contrast. This Melodic House & Techno moment adds emotional lift without breaking the flow, acting as a controlled pivot rather than a stylistic departure.
The closing section sharpens the intensity through peak-time pressure and stripped-back minimal elements, before returning to raw and hypnotic Techno for the final stretch. Floating Beats 726 closes as a disciplined and immersive techno session, centred on genre consistency, club functionality and DJ Joshua’s own productions woven seamlessly into the mix.
Tune in to his live radio show on Monday, January 19, 2026, from 6 to 8 p.m. Indochina Time (ICT). Missed it? Don’t worry, catch the replay on Friday from 6 to 8 a.m. (ICT).
