Cleveland born and Arizona raised comes a young artist with a lot of potential and the desire to make it somewhere in the music industry. At ten years old, Joshua started getting into the music with hip hop, rapping songs about being a little kid. 

At 13, his parents bought him a recording studio, which took his career to a new level. By the time he was 16, he learned how to engineer and mix at a basic level, and was performing shows with national acts; such as Twista, Bizzy Bone and Scarface. 

In 2009, Joshua had moved back to Cleveland, a whole different crowd. As the months gone by with no plugs to shows, the teen-age hip hop artist faded;however, the passion for music didn't die.

 In June, 2012, he started to DJ EDM with a cheap controller and PC. He even spun his first show, djing between acts for a Lil Wyte show with this set-up. As time gone by, a laptop with a numark controller, and practice put into DJing, he started to DJ at clubs and EDM events, pursuing his career and now affiliated with Insanirent Records.

Who is Skwhere ☐ ? http://youtu.be/okrs1ZUgv8I

All the music you hear on our profile, including reposts, we made it!

A huge snow storm suddenly showed up on the radar; from their post at the Nuuk weather station in Greenland, Aleksandr and Mickail realized they'd never manage the sledge journey back to the town where they were playing that night. They called the owner of the discotheque via video chat to cancel their concert. But when they realized that the people were very excited in the club, already in the atmosphere that you have at 3AM but at 8PM, the idea struck them: why not have the concert anyway, but remotely, via webcam? Skype was hooked up to the tv screen TV and the speaker (it was a single 6 by 6 meter speaker laying under the ground, so you could feel the sound run travel through your body while you dance), and the 2 geeks unpacked their equipment in the weather station.

The next morning, partygoers and musicians woke up to a beautiful layer of pure white snow blanketing the shiny roads of Nuuk. They were all filled with the memories of having shared an incredible party filled with unspeakable things that you normally do only when you are alone, 100km away from each other on webcam. Inspired by the strange circumstances, Aleksander and Mickail had joked around and interacted all night with the audience during the performance, and it had been such a thrill that the brothers decided to continue playing that way : the Skwhere ☐ experience was born. 

Looking at their eclectic background, it seemed obvious they weren't going to do something normal. By age 9, Mickail and Aleksandr had already built  their own music studio / video production company / marketing agency, developing concepts like "Sound & Lights during the night", or films like "The life of one creature is more important than the happiness of another one". At age 20, they decided to start getting into more serious business, so they studied jazz piano at the conservatory, while launching the first webseries in France, a comedy/realTV show they produced from A to Z. During that period, they developed their taste for music made with computers (Aleksandr was making all the sound tracks of the series). After being called "terrorists" by the conservatory for admitting they had an electro-jazz band, they were definitely expelled when they started making beats with no jazz at all and a kick drum on every pulse.

Admitting to a stockpile of 1980's dance tapes, they veered towards dance floor electronic music and started a band with a friend in 2005, Alienhearts, which played regional gigs before being invited to Parisian clubs and the Goliath 2007 in Geneva. 

Their story becomes fuzzy after 2010; maybe one day they'll reveal what they're doing out in Greenland, but right now they just managed to release their first EP with an US label, composed of 6 electro tracks infused with rich pop, French touch, and trance influences.

In the meantime, Skwhere allows the 2 brothers to exploit all of their passions in one original concept. Streamed and projected onto big screens in clubs anywhere in the world, now with high quality sound and video, their shows are a very unique mix of comedy, live performance and awesome dance floor beats. Stuck behind their computers at the weather station, the two geeks marvel at how the unconventional format of their gigs has broken many boundaries and brought them closer to their audience. "The greater the distance, the stronger the emotion".
