Josdar - Free Inside

Sunsetness (Original Mix) (Infrasonic Recordings)

Josdar (real name, Wayne McCarten) is a producer sitting firmly on top of the “ones to watch” pile.  Having been fanatical about dance music from a young age, it is perhaps no surprise that he soon turned his attentions to DJing and has more recently also embraced the production side of things.
 
In the short time since his first release, Josdar's productions have gained support from such heavyweights as Andy Moor, Ernesto & Bastian and Three Drives.  No stranger to radioplay, his tracks have also have also featured on BBC Radio 1 and RTE Pulse.  The young Northern Irishman’s talents have not gone unnoticed by trance A-lister, Andy Duguid who has signed Josdar up to release tracks under his pioneering new After Dark Music label.  Josdar's debut on After Dark is due for release in May 2011 and is sure to enjoy the same success as his previous trance releases, 'Blanked Out' and 'Breaking Clear', which held on to the number 2 and 3 spots on djdownload.com for a number of weeks.
 
As comfortable behind the decks as in the studio, Josdar's live sets comprise a diverse mix of trance sounds peppered with elements of house, techno and progressive. A regular fixture on the Irish clubbing scene, he has entertained crowds in some of Ireland's largest clubs including the Vaults in Dublin, Traks, Portrush, the Coach in Banbridge and various others. Previous gigs have seen him play alongside some of the most in-demand trance artists in the scene today, including Beat Service, Mallorca Lee, Simon Patterson and Paul Webster.
 
Not one to shy away from the spotlight, 2010 saw Josdar perform at an exclusive boat party on Lough Ness, a feat only previously performed by the legendary Fat Boy Slim. With a DJ career this promising and a production catalogue already receiving stellar support, it won’t be long util you'll be hearing the name 'Josdar' a lot more often.
