Joe Oliver is an adventurous designer and DJ. He was formally educated in Graphic Design at Nottingham Trent University. Shortly after schooling, Joe took the freelance route with his design skills and illustration. Working short-term contracts meant Joe could work, then travel for months through Europe, Australia, South America and Asia. Joe’s nomad lifestyle finally slowed down when he reached Japan’s megacity.

Joe and James explore the inception of his music brand Yes Chef! hosting a monthly party series and his weekly radio show with Tim Lambourne aka Good Company Broadcast Group. The chat wraps up by looking into the future to discuss how Joe would like further serve the music community and how designing will always be part of his life.
Joe's spirit radiates both adventure and creativity. He blends innovation, imagination, and a dash of design expertise to concoct remarkable experiences in his work and DJ pursuits. Find the secret recipe in this episode!
