I'm just a guy making it on this crazy planet we share.

Depeche Mode, New Order, classic house (less techno), deep house, disco, morning music… take me to the dance floor.

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.

The GlamCocks are a far-flung family of burners, and our gatherings strive to create a fun, energetic, body-positive, open-minded, and pro-LGBTQ space that invites participation and self-expression for everyone who wants to participate. Our goal as a community is to create a space that is welcoming, fun, whimsical, glamorous, transformational, and memorable for all. All proceeds from our events go toward funding art projects, nightlife offerings and community workshops at Burning Man and a portion of our fundraisers go to local LGBTQ-focuses charities.
