As a percussionist and producer, Joakin Eskasan has become a true craftsman of the electronic dance music scene. Joakin successfully mixes his live percussive grooves with electro house, techno, house, and progressive house   music, making him a favorite among club goers. Born in El Paso, TX Joakin grew up in Juarez, Mexico where he started playing drums for large audiences at the age of 14. In an ongoing quest to expand his knowledge and experience, Joakin moved to Boston to attend Berklee College of Music.

Through the training he received at Berklee, Joakin has been able to expand his technical repertoire, further enhancing his inherent passion and mastery for the beats he brings to dancefloors throughout. These skills, coupled with his endless energy, have given Joakin the opportunity to make people dance with Dj’s such as Chus & Ceballos, Craig Mitchell, D:Fuse, D-Formation, Deep Boston, Eli Wilkie, Elliot DeHoyos, Emjay, Jay Prouty, Joe Mama, Juan E, Lance Jordan, Oscar De Rivera, Rick Naples, Soul Clap, Steve Porter and That Kid Chris, in venues across the United States, including Rise, Rumor, and Underbar (Boston), LeSouk, Studio Mezmor and Sullivan Room  (New York City) as well as Nocturnal, Cafeteria, Tantra  and The Fifth at the Winter Music Conference (Miami).

As soon as Joakin stands behind his percussion set, he is truly in his element; for it is the smiling faces and pounding feet of his fellow movers, groovers and shakers that fuels him to tirelessly play through the night. Ultimately, Joakin strives to keep make people dance, endlessly enjoy music, and celebrate life in the same way he does. Joakin Eskasan is forever, making people dance!
