Josh Wink (born Joshua Winkelman in 1970) is an electronic music DJ, label owner, producer, remixer, and artist. He is a native of Philadelphia, United States. A pioneering DJ in the American rave scene during the early 1990s, Wink was the most prominent exponent of the tribal forms of techno and house in the U.S. In 1995, he released several hits, including « Don’t Laugh, » « I’m Ready » (which hit number one on the U.S. Hot Dance Club Play chart) and « Higher State of Consciousness, » which topped the dance charts in Europe. He has had many recent club hits such as « How’s Your Evening So Far? » (sample’s Lil Louis’s ‘French Kiss’) and « Superfreak (Freak) » and has also gained a lot of attention for his remixes of FC Kahuna, Paul Oakenfold, Moby, Towa Tei, Ladytron and Depeche Mode, among others.



Style

Wink’s current style is a mixture of techno, acid, house, drum and bass, and experimental music. In interviews, he has stated that his music is « built around tension », and that his work is often influenced by « mistake theory, which is: I use a lot of things that you and I might consider mistakes…by (experimenting) with effects, with filters, with percentages in my sampler, and just doing stuff that you wouldn’t ordinarily do. »

In 1996, Rolling Stone writer Frank Broughton observed that « a Josh Wink record takes a series of sampled noises, then twists and warps them through a barrage of sound processors, resulting in a spiraling blend of acidic bass lines and trippy break beats.
