The Artist
Twenty years
making people move.
Joey iLLah has been making music for nearly two decades — cutting his teeth on Music 2000, the PlayStation beat sequencer, and never looking back. Twenty years on, he's one of Aotearoa's most in-demand producers and DJs across Drum & Bass, Trap, Dubstep and Electronic. Recent festival credits include Ultra New Zealand 2026, Famous Last Words (NYE), and Mardi Gras Festival.
Previously signed to a label under the alias Jp.Moa, his releases have charted inside the Beatport Top 100, earned support from heavyweights of the scene, and are distributed globally by Sony Music NZ.
His catalogue spans German, UK and US labels, with a sound that's intricate, commercially vibrant, and built to move dancefloors — from festival main stages to underground club rooms.
