Biography of Joe Kopasek
In memory of Anu Ramasamy
As one of the mid-Atlantic’s leading break beat Deejay’s, Joe Kopasek never fails to turn heads with a music selection unlike any other. Driven by a passion to find the latest and greatest sounds the world has to offer, Joe will go to great lengths to bring what he finds pleasing to his ears…to yours.
Starting out at the beach in the mid 90’s with just a set of 1200’s, Joe soon became a staple at the Full Moon Gatherings of West Virginia. This led to a partnership with then studio star, DJ Who, and his Deep Rising productions. Hosting parties became a part of his regular diet and as things picked up steam, Joe formed his own crew just before the new millennium, called Kidz That Groove.
Around this time he became a resident deejay for Family Productions, who were hosting some of the east coast’s biggest dance music events. Soon, he was traveling across the nation from his hometown in Baltimore, MD to California and into Canada, spreading the funky sound everyone has come to expect. Corporations even picked up on Joe’s reputation as a beat master. In 2003 he was asked to tour with Wrigley’s Winterfresh gum until he was setback by great family tragedy. Forced to retreat, cope, and rebuild strength over a two-year span, Joe did make his way back. Kicking off 2006 with his entry into one of the nation’s original and leading production teams and families, Buzzlife, Joe is proud to be back on the one’s and two’s spreading that funky break beat sound we all love.
Now nestled within the bee’s nest in the heart of Washington, DC, time can only tell what is to come from an east coast native as strong, innovative, and freethinking as Joe Kopasek. We can only wait and see what tricks Joe has up his sleeve. One thing is for sure, with all the emotion bottled up inside this deejay, it’s gonna be big!
