Some of you will instantly know him from club land and attending Twist regularly, but for who’s of you that don’t, he has a passion for mixing and having been djing for the past ten years, an eclectic record collection to die for! Paul, newly named Twist Resident and HF Up and Coming DJ of the Year 2006, is from Welling, Kent and annoyed his parents no end when in his bedroom, blasting out all types of dance music and building up his passion and confidence to play out in a club. It all started back in 1995 buying records such as: Shades of Rhythm, Exodus to Paradise and DJ Flavours — Roll the drums. At this time he was buying uplifting house, pumping house, trance, hard trance then onto hard house and funky techno/techno, in that order. It was not until 1999 when Paul was in a small record shop in Bexleyheath and unexpectly listened to a sound by the legendary 0D404 — ‘Ram Raid’, that tantalised his ears and changed him to a Hard House Head! Paul then progressed with the urge to fill his room with hard house records from all sorts of record artists and record labels such as Tidy, Spinball, Twisted Traxx, Tripoli Traxx, Vicious Circle, Tinrib records, Operation 9, Do Not Bend and so on and on. His first set of decks (how basic is this, but we have to start somewhere?!) was an all in one disco deck. These didn’t even have a pitch on them. He then progressed onto Numark belt drives which were brought for his birthday and used these for years. Eventually he scraped together money to buy some Technics 1210s, which are now his pride and joy. Paul and his brother went straight into setting up an event at a small venue, 3-D in Dartford, named Swog. This went on for a little while, playing House, uplifting Trance, Hard Trance and Hard House. A couple of years later Paul played under Sonik for Wired at George 4 when it was running on a Sunday morning, banging out classic hard house tunes such as RR Fierce — ‘Yamamba’, one of his favourite records, the harder spectrum with tracks like Grady G’s ‘Afraid of the Dark’, as well as Karim. He then went onto play at Fuel, which was a superb morning, the crowd were rocking all the way through and the hard work to get him to play there paid of. 2006 saw Paul’s best achievements as playing a classic hard trance set at Es Paradise, Ibiza, which went down a storm and had clubbers’ hands in the air. He then came back and wowed the Twist army with his funky techno warm up set and was later announced resident alongside Karim, Superfast Oz, Steve Maynard, Tom Basquil and Tim Shaw aka DNG. Now, with his fingers dipped into production, we can expect a lot from him this year . . . Watch this space!!

Summer's here and 'Skoolz Out' as far as Karl Davis & WMD are concerned,both spending more time in the studio than the classroom judging by the quality of this latest NRG stormer! Vintage rave synths and catchy vocal samples fused with belting hard house beats will scythe through any unsuspecting dancefloor, while the Captain Tinrib rework rips up the rulebook and sticks two fingers up at authority during a screaming,acid laced scorcher of a remix. A fantastic lesson in how to do hard house.
