Biography
Dutch DJ and producer was born Maurice Oude Booyink, and began playing keyboards when he was just seven years old. Booyink was raised on classical music, but when he was a teenager he became interested in vintage soul and funk sounds, and had formed a band when he was 16 years old. Developing a taste for dance music, Booyink began learning the ins and outs of the recording studio, and started cutting dance singles under the name Inmado as well as producing tracks for artists such as Sharon Doorson and R3hab. The Dutch dance music label Spinnin' Records became aware of Booyink when he entered a remix of "Pyramids" by DVBBS in a DJ competition sponsored by the label.
Booyink was one of the top prizewinners and landed a contract with the label, and devised the alter ego Joe Stone. Stone's debut release for Spinnin' was 2015's "The Party," which fused cool new rhythms with Montell Jordan's party-starting favorite, and the tune quickly became a hit, rising to the top of the Beatport Charts, where it stayed for two weeks.

Montell Du'Sean Jordan (born December 3, 1968 in Los Angeles, California) is an American R&B singer, songwriter, and record producer. Jordan was the first R&B artist signed to the Def Jam label, and became the main male artist on its Def Soul imprint until leaving the label in 2003. Jordan attended Pepperdine University in California to pick up a bachelor's degree in communications, graduating summa cum laude and was a state finalist for the Rhodes Scholarship.
