South California, the sunny state with an ocean view…a birthplace of many unique artists…where their star shined brighter…and it’s where Joshua Martin was born and raised, and sure enough, his star is shining brighter every day…

Joshua Martin discovered he had a talent for writing songs around when he was ten… interestingly, he didn’t learn to play a musical instrument, instead, he went to get a 16-track recorder…Joshua is a very rare case of a born-ready-music producer.

Around that age, Joshua wrote lyrics then went on to create melodies…and before that 16-track recorder, he had to memorize all his melodies, because he didn’t have any other way to keep track of the melodies that were created and trapped in his mind.

He came a long way from the 16-track recorder…to now, being an expert with his go-to digital audio workstation software, Logic Pro.

Joshua grew up in a time where he was heavily influenced by 80s pop, dark wave, reggae, and Latin music in general, that’s evident in his musical creations, you’ll get to see a fusion between elements of each of these genres…some of the other artists that he enjoys listening to include the No Doubt, Aterciopelados and The Cure.

For his latest works…Joshua created a song and its remix, a very interesting approach…

Not just for the fans, but because Joshua made the song and the remix in completely different moods, and genres…it’s basically like you’re listening to the same song but in a completely new light…even the core musical progressions are different…such a unique concept…

It’s like one of those things…when you see it, you say to yourself “how didn’t I think of that before?

Joshua wrote “Te Conoci Bailando” and its “Te Conoci Bailando – Sunshine is Coming” remix and released them…and let’s talk about these two versions…what’s different and why they’re two very enjoyable sides of the same experience.

Starting with “Te Conoci Bailando”…

It started with a reggae kind of guitar rhythm to it…

…but when the beat starts it takes you to a more 80s kind of straight beat that gets you moving…

Then the brass section hits some very catchy licks…

The vocals are doing the heavy lifting, with an extremely catchy melody and some amazing harmonies…

…getting to the other side…getting into the “Te Conoci Bailando – Sunshine is Coming” remix…

…I believe the experience should go like this…you start with the original…and keep listening, and it will automatically go into the remix… when you stitch these two songs together, you’ll get a different experience…

It’s like you’re in one place and then get transported to a completely different place and experience.

The sunshine remix is a tropical fruit punch with a little umbrella bathing in it, feeling the ocean breeze, and listening to waves smoothly crashing on the beach…all while getting a bit of a tan.

The instrumentation between the two songs is completely different…

The original has a stronger flavor of reggae and pop.

While the remix is full of tropical electronica… 

I would highly recommend it if you go through the original and organically go into the remix…

Joshua has made a couple of big splashes so far in his career…

He performed at the Tomlin Theatre at the LGBT center in LA, Mi Centro Pride in DTLA…he’s also been featured on Voyage LA.

He was also featured in a TV spot at the Cannes Festival that went viral…

Joshua, you’re rising fast, shining bright, and have an absolute banger of a career in front of you…we wish you all the luck in the world.

Make sure you guys check out Joshua Martin’s “Te Conoci Bailando” and “Te Conoci Bailando – Sunshine is Coming” remix…you’re in for a treat.
