A Conversation with Joe Kay | Soulection, Timeless Living

Описание: ⁠Joe Kay⁠ is a visionary, entrepreneur, sound selector, DJ, and Co-Founder of ⁠#Soulection⁠ - one of the most impactful cultural movements of the last decade.

Joe's creative journey began in 2011, as he launched Soulection Radio from his own bedroom. What began as a passion project quickly blossomed into a weekly Apple Music radio show (amassing over 600 episodes), an independent music label, the Soulection Experience festival, a world-touring concert, and the Soulection Supply clothing line.

We sat down with Joe Kay at the ⁠#TimelessLiving Estate⁠ in Joshua Tree, California for an exclusive peak into his newest venture. At its core, Timeless Living is a curated and bookable physical space that feels like the perfect blend of aesthetic and nature. It's a safe creative home to disconnect, recharge, and be inspired. And for Joe Kay, it beautifully expands on the world he's crafted through music.
