High Tea . Pavilion . Fire Island Pines . June 14, 2025 . Joe D'Espinosa

Recorded as a tribute to Lesley Mandel to be played at a poolside reception in Fire Island Pines. Lesley's best friends suggested some of the tunes and from that starting point, I blended the rest of this indulgently reminiscent set of lux disco vibes for an afternoon in the sun. Sit back, relax, grab a cold drink, put on your sunglasses and enjoy. You might not be able to resist getting up to twirl a little! In fond and loving memory of Lesley Mandel.

Part 1 | The Saint at Large presents The White Party 1998 | DJ Joe D'Espinosa

For my birthday in 1999, I DJed overnight at the Pavilion and the next morning we hosted a birthday party at my share house (205 Pine Walk) in the Pines, Fire Island. I put together this 6-hour set for pool dancing that day. A set of lush and light outdoor smooth house and disco grooves for swimming and swaying in the summer sun. Part Two of Two

Fire Island Pines Sweet Summer Day Part 2

Part One of Two. Recorded on the Fourth of July at the legendary Fire Island Pines Pavilion in 1995.

Fire Island Pines Pavilion: Free To Be - Part One

For the occasion of my 50th birthday, we hosted a dance party called "Fifty Shades of Neon: Back to the 80s." For three of the four hours, Brandon Hogstad delighted our guests with a nostalgic eighties set. But I couldn't help stepping onto the decks for a portion of the event. I chose to make a nod to the vibe I most enjoyed playing back in the day on an occasion when friends and family came from far and wide to experience the paradise we call The Pines. I was as happy as can be looking out over the beauitful group at The Pines Club on the bay, coming together in dance and celebration. Enjoy!

A Classic Fire Island Vibe | DJ Joe D'Espinosa

DJ Joe D'Espinosa has had a passion for discovering and sharing music since a very early age. Even as a teenager he would bring his records and turntables to parties to play music for friends. His first residencies were in the gay nightclubs of Boston in the nineties. His style has evolved over the years as tastes have evolved, and he's had many different phases to his career including having been a regular at the Pavilion on Fire Island in its nineties heyday, The Saint at Large in New York, Magnitude and Real Bad in San Francisco and countless other major event weekends on the gay party circuit around the country. 

You can regularly catch Joe in Brooklyn at House of Yes, including their epic annual Halloween event, City of Gods. He still regularly spins in New York, on Fire Island and makes occasional guest appearances on SiriusXM's Studio 54 Friday night show. His style is crafted to elicit joy and community, merging disco grooves and funky house sounds for soulful, melodic and uplifting journeys on dancefloors and in podcasts.
