Bio
7 years ago, two friends, Steve Bishop & Chris Ruiz, met in a tiny guest house in the South Bay Area and began producing most forms of electronic music. Realizing that each brought what the other was lacking musically, they decided to join forces. Joint Effort was born! Their motto has been an approach to the way they've created music since the beginning: scouting musical talent of all styles and after giving over their own talents to the scouted musicians, Joint Effort begins to harvest the creative potential between all artists involved in the particular project. The result is a blend of funky yet refined beats and licks in which all musicians involved, are more than satisfied with, even for those who's musical endeavor delved for the first time into the electronic realm. Joint Effort now resides both in South Lake Tahoe and San Jose and are currently launching their respective labels Opium Scent Music & Deep Tone Laboratoriez along with their house music label Housekeeping Rec.
Outside of music Steve Bishop has currently started to dabble in photography.
