Joe Stone: Songs and Collaborations

The Producer

Joe Stone is Maurice Oude Booyink, a classically trained Dutch producer from Almelo in the Netherlands. He's been working since 2015, and he won Spinnin' Records' remix contest to get his start, then stayed loyal to that label ever since, carving out a lane in future house, funk and disco that sits alongside artists like Robin Schulz, Sam Feldt and Anton Powers. If you've heard a burst of retro disco strings dropped into a modern house beat, there's a good chance Stone was behind it.

The Sound

Warm basslines, disco samples treated with respect rather than novelty, and hooks built to make a room move. His classical training from age seven shows in how tightly his tracks are built. Nothing feels thrown together or like an afterthought. He moves comfortably through future house, funk and house, often blending all of them in one track. What sets him apart is how he folds retro-tinged funk and disco into contemporary house production. It's a sound that works equally well for a Friday night playlist or a proper DJ set.

The Path

His breakthrough was "The Party (This Is How We Do It)", built around Montell Jordan's classic hook. It charted in the UK, Ireland and the Netherlands. From there, tracks like "Bug A Boo" and "Right Here" built his core catalogue. He's also recorded under the alias Inmado, hosted his own radio show called "Sound of Stone" on DI.FM, and early in his career did production work with Havana Brown and R3hab.

What's Worth Knowing

Stone rarely works in isolation. His best moments pair his funk-and-disco instincts with the right collaborator. His work with Anton Powers (on "Do Me Right" featuring Olivia Sebastianelli) sits right alongside his solo productions, both operating in that same future house and funk territory. And his remix work alongside names like Endor and Don Diablo shows how his instincts translate to other people's material.
