Josh Butler - The ups and downs of being one of the biggest artists in the scene

Episode number 17 of the High Frequency Podcast is a real special one. When I started this podcast just over a year ago, I definitely didn't expect to be introducing someone like Josh Butler. But as it happens, he has some deep roots in New Zealand. As it also happens, both him and I grew up very close to each other and partied in some of the same clubs as we grew up. 

 He’s usually in NZ yearly and now is part owner and founder of up and coming electronic music festival “This kinda Day” in Queenstown.

He had some unexpected success back in 2013 with the track  “Got a feeling”,  and it led to him scooping multiple industry awards from Beatport and DJ Mag. Since then he’s been labeled as one of the UK’S most premier house music talents by none other than Pete Tong himself, and consistently championed by the likes of Steve Lawler and Heidi.

He’s released on labels such as Knee deep in sound, CR2 Recordings, Hot Creations, and Defected, including some remixes for huge names like Carl Cox and collaborations with the legend himself Kerri Chandler. 

It’s safe to say that Josh is a staple worldwide name in the house music scene, and he’s working away at trying to grow the scene here in New Zealand much like myself.

I hope you enjoy listening to the podcast as much as I enjoyed creating it.

Thanks everyone for listening
