WWW.WATCHA3.COM - josh wink live at Crobar, watch this incredible DJ whip the south beach crowd to a frenzy. Josh Wink cut his teeth on the Philadelphia music scene of the late 1980s and early 1990s when crowds of eager dancers filled warehouses, entertained by deejays mixing tracks at parties that lasted into the early morning. Wink was an East Coast phenomenon until 1995 when three consecutive European hits launched him into the international spotlight, and he began spinning for dancers from London to Tokyo. Chris Mugan of London\'s Evening Standard said \"Wink builds up and releases almost unbearable tension as he effortlessly moves from minimal house to tribal techno.\" Born Joshua Winkelman in 1970 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Wink was influenced by a range of musical styles, including early punk rock, rappers like Run-D.M.C., and the synthesized pop of Depeche Mode. When he was 13, Wink started working for a mobile deejay service. While playing music for parties around Philadelphia he met up with another Philadelphia deejay, King Britt. Mixing and recording on Musical Instrument Digital Interface (MIDI) equipment in their bedroom studios, the two released a single called \"Tribal Confusion\" under the name E-Culture in 1990. The track established their careers on the dance music scene.
