Celestial Party
Hey guys, I’m Just Japheth! Born and raised along the vibrant Jersey Shore! Rooted in the rhythm of coastal life. I’m here to bring the pulse of the coast to the decks. Weaving from house, to trance, to techno into a celestial journey. Every beat is a journey, every drop is a moment. My goal is to turn every crowd into a dance floor under the stars.
My journey all started by listening to Daft Punk “harder better faster stronger” finger hand Youtube video. My life has changed ever since. I remember how mesmerized I was by watching that video and that song. So I deep dive into Daft Punk. if it wasn't for them. I wouldn't know who I would be without them. If i could choose a national anthem. It would be “one more time” no questions asked. Like read these lyrics
“We're gonna celebrate
One more time Celebrate and dance so free, Music's got me feeling so free Celebrate and dance so free, One more time “
This was my motto. Having the music feeling through my body and soul made me feel so free, that I had to celebrate like it was my last time living life. So my journey has begun. My first step was to immerse myself into the culture. So in 2018 I decided to hit the hay and go all into Electric Forest. Forest was the gateway to a wonderful rollercoaster of what we call life. I knew from then on, I wanted to be someone. Just not sure what. Each festival I go to, I gain new pieces of myself but also shed heavy baggage that's holding me down. Like a caterpillar molding to a beautiful butterfly.
Fast forward It wasn't till i saw Martin fucking Garrix at Project Glow back in 2022 in D.C. During that set I had a strong epiphany/vision that i can fuckin DJ, I can be on mainstage and perform in front of others. Expressing myself to the fullest, to show what I, Japheth, can do. I just didn't know where or how to start. Subsequently it basically started step Two. ”How the fuck”!
So months later! I was playing apex with my close friend (ADHDre) catching up on some stuff with what we call life. Mind you we never saw each other in person. We are still strangers.Yet so alike. Yet somehow lived like 13 minutes apart. So we made a plan to have an IRL hangout instead of playing apex, it was time to pop the cherry. 11-28-22 magic was born. The day we met. It was like meeting your soulmate. But instead of a soulmate, that was your Brotha from Anotha Motha. It was like we were supposed to meet.
Lets go further down the line, The date was 1-26-23 that day, not only did my path carved itself on the map in my own world, Dre and I made our first song together called “Everything is all upside down.” It was also the unionship of the Celestial Party. THIS was the SEED planted and rooted for Celestial Industries llc of what we have today.
The year 2023 was full of trials and errors. Just to be expected. It wasn't till the fall of 2023 we needed to branch out and start doing more solo stuff for more individual expression to expand our sound to bring Celestial Party sound to another level. Thus Just Japheth was born.
Finding my own sound is a lot harder than I would realize. I love music. But music that fucking hits my soul. So trying to recreate a sound that I can only think of without any musical knowledge is the biggest obstacle I came across.
Step 3 establishment. Later down the line in 2024 a flip switch in me, and stumbled upon to produce 4 songs with some great big help! Now that I put a piece of me on the streaming platform map, literally. Now I have to keep the ball rolling.
I Love Dance music. Music that makes you wanna dance and sing all night long. That's what I was raised and born to do, (and Massaging) so that's what I'm going to provide to my people. (also tryna take over the jersey shore and their lame generic music scene.) EDM is welcome to all people. We have to share what we love and shake what our momma gave us.
