Until 2010, Joel was producing solo projects under the moniker, Thee Werq'n B!tches. His remix and subsequent video for Thee Werq'n B!tches ft.

His remix(es) of Dolly Parton's "9 to 5 (Dolly Parton song)" and Bette Davis' "I've Written a Letter to Daddy" (from "What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?") are regarded as camp club classics and are played somewhere in the world every night to a rapturous response.
