JEPE

JEPE, real name João Silva, operates from Berlin as a DJ and producer who began releasing music in 2014. He also records under the aliases johnwaynes and Just John, building a catalog of 62 releases across his decade-long career. His output spans from his debut release in January 2014 through scheduled releases extending to July 2025.

His productions traverse deep house, indie dance, melodic house & techno, tech house, and peak time driving techno, appearing on labels including Moodmusic, Engrave LTD, Connaisseur Recordings, Biotop, and Aeon. JEPE's sound operates across multiple tempo ranges, from the deeper, groove-oriented tracks suited for warm-up sets to driving techno designed for peak-time floors. His releases on Moodmusic and Connaisseur Recordings demonstrate his melodic house capabilities, while his appearances on more underground imprints like Biotop showcase his harder-edged techno productions.
