Michael Upson presents Queer Ears with Josh Caffé - 25 September 2021

Self-dubbed freek and underground queer icon Josh Caffé peddles a raw, rough and ready approach to house and techno.

Best known as being the frontman for Paranoid London, Josh's sultry and commanding vocals and powerful stage presence is a core part of what makes the analogue acid and techno outfit tick. He's not stopped there, lending his vocals to releases for Posthuman on Lobster Theremin, alongside Batty Bass founder Hannah Holland and with Lupe on Twirl, to name but a few, but of course, it was only a matter of time before his solo EP would see the light of day.

BLACK MAGIK DAWN PT.1 was released on his own Night Sheen Records in 2018 and, though the label has taken a hiatus, he's since been fuelling his energy into his Love Child imprint, a charity-focused label platforming LGBTQIA+ artists that's an extension of his long-running party of the same name.

More recently, he's been in the studio collaborating on production with Paranoid London member Quinn, on what has formed his latest solo release, According To Jacqueline, a debut single for Erol Alkan's Phantasy imprint.

When he's not on the mic or in the studio, he's channeling the same gritty and jacking sounds that influence his productions into his DJ sets, one of which we're sharing with you today. His Ransom Note mix transports you to a dark and sweaty club; eyes closed, feet stepping, hips gyrating — this is music for the body.

Underground Music Academy Takeover: Josh Caffé - 19 June 2022

For July '22 we're really excited to have Josh Caffé join us for our mix series. Josh’s mix takes us on a moody meandering through trippy breaks, blended with perfection into slapped back, sultry, ethereal electronic bangers. Jump aboard Josh’s love train and expect a seamless adventure that stops off with Attica Blues, Al Green, Kruder and Dorfmeister and everything in between. It’s immaculate, and a mix that you will want to play over and over, and over again. Josh has spent the last decade on a breathless trip through the fringes of London’s shifting house and techno continuum. As a DJ, vocalist and activist of British-Ugandan descent, Caffé’s influence has been felt everywhere from institutions such as Dalston Superstore and Adonis to his own Love Child party, curated at Fabric, where Caffé holds an influential residency. Collaborating with international icons of dance music and fashion such as Honey Dijon, he has become an even more visible and respected presence in recent years. Josh's mix coincides with an upcoming album and off the back of two hit singles ‘According To Jacqueline’ and ‘Do You Wanna Take Me Home?’ (remixed by Steffi & Virginia), both effortlessly capture Caffé’s vision of queer liberation and sensuality.Big thank you to Dawn for organising this mix.

Club resident Josh Caffé is front-and-centre for the next edition of Recorded Live from fabric. Get warm with 1.5 hours taken from Josh’s steamy DJ set from the SPORTS BANGER MEGA RAVE on 26th August 2021, ahead of his return for our annual 30-hour Birthday marathon across 15th-17th October.

Deeply embedded in London’s underground house and techno world, Josh exists not just as a DJ. With a versatile skill palette, Josh is also a producer and vocalist and the formidable frontman of infamous house and techno duo Paranoid London (made up of Gerardo Delgado and Quinn Whalley). Josh’s sound roams from deeply versatile DJ sets, to live vocal performances that are driving and entrancing in equal measure – a perfect fit for the sleazy, throwback era, acid house, and old school Chicago house Paranoid London produce so well. As fabric resident Josh has stunned and enthralled us on numerous occasions both at the club and elsewhere. In March we took Josh’s live project along with a troupe of Vogue Dancers to the English National Opera, a set proving he could captivate any venue you put in front of him. Plus stand out sets like his live show at last year's Birthday have solidified him as more than a regular fabric player - fabric family. 

But his creative endeavours don’t stop there. Josh is also one of the masterminds behind beloved London dance music brand and queer party Love Child. Love Child is a collective with a clear-cut aim and has established itself as one of the capital’s best-loved names for seriously good music, and equally good parties. For our 30-hour Birthday, Josh has enlisted Love Child for a Room takeover. Expect a very special showcase from this tight-knit and boundary pushing collective. More details on Room splits, and further special guests for the weekend’s proceedings are set to be revealed in the coming weeks. So, we suggest you keep your eyes locked on the fabric channels for updates. 

This latest recorded set builds and pumps steadily throughout, with warping beats that will gear you up to lose control in the throws of the EC1 dancefloor all over again.

Josh Caffé plays the fabric 23rd Birthday on 15th-17th October alongside Dax J, Ricardo Villalobos, DJ Tennis, AFRODEUTSCHE, VTSS, JASSS, and plenty more. Tickets: https://ra.co/events/1565508

The Dance Show with Emerald Feat. Paranoid London, Josh Caffe & Mutado Pintado - 14 October 2022

"I wanted to do something that was a bit more downtempo techno with an oldskool house vibe. Keeping it, sleazy, sexy. A lot of the tracks I've enjoyed playing out over the summer too."
