About Me

Paul is a Bristol based music producer, chemical-reactions projectionist/projector inventor and video designer. He has been reckognized for merging Dj Sets and Live production into a singular experience using his custom designed music console.
As a one-man electronic orchestra who has graced the stages of cultural institutions and international salons alike, Paul employs an army of samplers, loopers and beat machines to boldly and eloquently express himself. His dark and cosmic beats are renowned for their attention to tribal rhythms. The overwhelming atmospheric sounds recall a great sense of unity with masterful and innovative command of simple functions like reverb and delay. Multilayered electronic cosmic sounds merge with glitchy techno beats, bringing the listener on a journey to a place where world politic meets the universal mind.
Since 2016, Paul has been attracting new fans thanks to regular appearances at events like Space Mountain Festival (with Youth), ICICI Film festival, RixMix, HMV Apollo Hammer Smith, Picture House [ Glasgow ], local clubs and squats in Bristol/London and rare appearances across Europe. He has appeared in CreativeReview, FactMag, and various local radio & magazine interviews in and around Bristol. Has been working closely with legendary house Dj - DjStrangefruit, Kundalini. His latest 2019 project ANiMA is a Dance Electronic duo group that is set to kick start in September 2019.

Collaborations:
Gaudi, Chester Taylor, Saafi Brothers, Stone Roses guitarist Aziz Ibrahim, Gilbert Gabriel from Dream Academy, Cats Stevens son’s psychedelic grunge band – Noxshi, Pro-Earth environmental music project CHANT, as well as NY based producers Gabe Moon and Violet. He sees life as a rich, creative tapestry where every experience feeds into the next. It is this openness that endears his community to appreciate the creative experience he offers - a night in his domain will not soon be forgotten.
