Before starting Vizual Records in 2009, Joshua Iz has released music on some of the most respected labels in electronic music including OM, Prescription, Balance, Classic, Junior Boys Own, Guidance, Seasons, Six Degrees and Sony. He has remixed a wide variety of artists including King Britt, VHS Or Beta, Mark Farina, Greenskeepers, Terra Deva, Annie and Global Communication among many others.

While tracks like ‘Flower Sparks’, ‘Deep Space Pressure’ and ‘Tone D’ have already been rocking dance floors all over the world, ‘It Iz What It Iz’ is a true album meant to be listened to from beginning to end. The title track and first single ‘It Iz What It Iz’ featuring Joshua’s dj and production partner Diz on vocals is a smooth, sexy, midtempo, electronic affair with definite sing along appeal that will have you humming the super-catchy chorus again and again after your first listen. Diz’s signature velvet vocal style is perfectly suited to this enigmatic song about the mysteries of the universe and the importance of the moment.

‘Sentimental Love’ features the vocals of house music legend Chez Damier over a early Detroit-esque electronic soundscape. ‘We Control’ features reggae/hip-hop pioneer and Zulu Nation emeritus Jamalski lending his vocal chops to a hypnotic dub-hop rydim.

Ranging from electronic bleepy soul to reggae to arpeggiated deep techno, ‘It Iz What It Iz’ is like nothing you’ve heard before and destined to be a modern classic.

Reviews for Flower Sparks:

These trax got bounce to it! something missing in a alot of trax nowadays. — Mike ‘Agent X’ Clark

Great EP all round but Flower Sparks sounds like it will cause a bit of madness. — Jimpster

Unmistakeable Izism! All cuts playable – full support. — Chris Duckenfield

Rydim Culture Is Rocking! — Chris Udoh

Quality stuff from Joshua as usual. Tone D is my fave of the ep. — DJ Heather

Alpha& Omega is the one for me, heavy deep house vibe. — DJ Sneak

Alpha & Omega is the shit! Loving Tone D too. Both are going to sound lovely on the late night sound systems and in the mix for more enlightened minds. Serious biz. — Mazi (Audio Soul Project)
