jojoflores (Event Over)

Jojoflores has come a long way from his original Montreal residencies in the 80’s. Now reaching globally, he is current, dedicated, and consistently collaborating with international DJ’s, producers, club owners, high-brow and corporate affairs. He represents and purveys soulful dance music in every way possible: CEO of Gotsoul, founder of 9 year Therapy Soirée, and his CD compilations. This winning combination has managed to break musical barriers that otherwise would never have come down without his trademark packaging of music & events.

Jojoflores’ hard work and dedication has won him an established reputation in the music industry and has awarded him multiple residencies at famed clubs world wide, including New York’s Cielo, as well as others in San Francisco (Pink), Chicago, Toronto, Miami, Los Angeles (Deep), Hawaii (Lotus), Cape Town, Dubai & Athens. He was voted "Best International DJ" 4 years running by NYC's Underground Archives.

His musical influences range from: Chaka Khan, Prince, Stevie Wonder, A Tribe Called Quest, to the Beatles. Jojoflores, like Afrika Bambaataa is searching for “The Perfect Beat”, and his close connection with the pioneers -as well as the new jack producers- of soulful dance music brings him closer to this goal. He wants “to put the message out there, being optimistic in a chaotic world where positive times are hard to come by." Jojoflores does this--he brings optimism without fail every time he performs.
