Musical career
Originally beginning his career as a DJ in his hometown of Caserta, Campania, Italy, Joseph Capriati started using his own name when he began making his own productions in 2006. In December 2007, Joseph had his first release, “C’est la Vie”, on Italian record label Analytic Trail. A year later Joseph played his first Awakenings event on New Year’s Eve in Rotterdam, Netherlands alongside Analytic Trail label head Markantonio. Another collaborator of Capriati's was Rino Cerrone, with whom he worked on the project Neapolitan Gangsta.In 2009 were Joseph Capriati’s first releases on Adam Beyer’s label Drumcode Records with two EPs, ‘Sidechains/Kontrol Room’ and ‘Iron Pump/Black Line’. Since then, Joseph has been a regular at both Drumcode events worldwide and on the label side. The same year, Joseph released his ‘Login’ EP on Chris Liebing’s label CLR.
Joseph Capriati released his first artist album titled Save My Soul in July 2010 on Analytic Trail. On the album, Joseph says it “included all of the musical influences that I got since 1998 when I started to play records.”
In 2011, Joseph remixed Adam Beyer’s “A Walking Contradiction” as part of the 15 Years of Drumcode compilation, in addition to playing the 15 Years of Drumcode celebratory events held across Europe. After playing several back-to-back sets with Adam Beyer, Joseph Capriati released a collaborative EP together with Beyer, titled ‘Congenial Endeavor,’ on Drumcode in March 2012.
During the summer 2012 Joseph Capriati was named a resident of Marco Carola’s Music On parties at Amnesia in Ibiza, where he played 6 dates. In 2013, Joseph Capriati made more than 130 appearances in 25 countries. In early 2013, Joseph conducted his first US tour with dates in Miami, Denver, New Haven, Washington D.C., New York City, Los Angeles, Las Vegas and San Francisco. Throughout the year Joseph continued his residency in Ibiza and took it to cities such as New York City and Miami.
On November 25, 2013, Joseph Capriati released his second full-length album,Self Portrait, through Drumcode. Accompanying the album, Joseph Capriati released a documentary titled “Autoritratto”, which was filmed in his hometown of Caserta, near Naples during February 2013. The documentary tells Capriati's story in the context of a 12-hour marathon set at Metropolis. At the end of 2013, Joseph Capriati was voted into Resident Advisor’s Top DJs of 2013 for the first time in his career.
Joseph debuted his own party brand called 100% JC party at City Hall during Sonar OFF Week in Barcelona on June 15, 2014. Typically playing an open-to-close set, these parties see Joseph playing anywhere from seven to twelve or more hour long sets. In 2015 Joseph Capriati took his 100% JC parties worldwide to places like The BPM Festival in Playa del Carmen, Trade during Miami Music Week, Cavo Paradiso, Fabrique, Paradiso, Sonus Festival in Croatia, and a return to Barcelona. Then in October 2017 came another party brand, “Joseph Capriati Invites”.
During the Ibiza season of 2014 Joseph returned to Amnesia for the third consecutive year and also performed at Carl Cox’s Music is Revolution party at Space and Jamie Jones’ Paradise party at DC10 for the first time. He also continued to play back-to-back with DJs including Carl Cox, Danny Tenaglia, Jamie Jones, Beyer, Dave Clarke and Dubfire. Joseph played a back-to-back set with Louie Vega at New York club Cielo on March 15, 2017.
On the production-side Joseph Capriati remixed DJ/producer Carl Cox’s his track “Kommen Zusammen” and was included in Space Ibiza’s 25th Anniversary compilation. In December 2014, Capriati ranked up to #38 on Resident Advisor’s Top DJs of 2014.
As part of the fabric mix series, Joseph mixed fabric 80 in February 2015. 2015 also saw Capriati release remixes for Danny Tenaglia’s “DIBIZA” on Stereo Productions, Pan-Pot’s “Fugitives” on Second State, and Carl Cox and Joey Beltram’s “Slice” on Bush Records. 2015 saw Joseph Capriati voted into the top 50 of Resident Advisor’s Top DJs poll once again.
In January 2016, Joseph Capriati announced that he plans to launch his own record label called REDIMENSION in 2016. The first record, a collaboration with Adam Beyer, was released on June 20. The second, 'Prospective Journeys' was made together with Flavio Folco and came out in March 2017, the third by Anthony Parasole.
