A fixture on the Los Angeles club scene for years, Paulo has leveraged his critically acclaimed performance at the 2001 Palm Springs White Party into peak-hours success worldwide. During the past few years this truly international DJ – he hails originally from Portugal – has planted himself firmly among the ranks of headlining DJs, performing at numerous prestigious parties: Black and Blue Montreal, New York’s Saint at Large Black Party, Alegria, Fire Island’s Dancing on the Bay, White Party Miami and Palm Springs, Sydney’s Mardi Gras, Rio’s Carnival, and Taiwan’s "Ministry of Sound" just to name a few. Paulo also holds residencies at esteemed club events such as New York’s "Work" and Los Angeles’ "Reflex". In Los Angeles he began building his popularity by spinning the Tom of Finland Man-o’-Rama parties. “The tremendous fanfare surrounding those parties opened a lot of doors for me,” says Paulo. “It led to opportunities outside of LA which eventually propelled me into the league of the national party DJs.” Past residencies for Paulo in the City of Angels include Stereo and Spin and he is now frequently in the DJ booths at Reflex, Avalon, Mayan, Here, and The Factory. Outside his Southern California home base, Paulo has traveled quite a bit throughout the U.S.; turning dance floors on with his tribalistic sound. Expertly combining heavy yet energetic beats with soaring vocal progressive tracks in his sets, he has the unique ability to please a wide spectrum of clubbers and party-goers who keep the dance floor packed whenever he’s in the DJ booth. Booked and traveling to a gig almost every weekend of the year, his club dates are as impressive at his party credits and include Mezzanine in San Francisco, Roxy in NYC, Score in Miami, Hydrate and Crobar in Chicago, Bodyshop in Atlanta, Rise in Boston and Club Five in DC. Internationally, he has played various locations in Mexico, Paris and Brazil and wowed the entire country of Canada with appearances in Montreal, Toronto, and Vancouver. Paulo has had playdates in Ibiza at Amnesia and Trade in London, an achievement that few American-based DJs can claim. Co-founder of Pure Music Productions, Paulo has built one of the hottest independent record labels; providing top-10 progressive tracks on Beatport and various digital download sites. Together with Todd Dutkevitch, Paulo has created deep rhythms with original tracks such as "Ride The Beat", "Slave To The Rhythm", and "The Brazilian Rainforest" for Tribo Recordings. Paulo’s releases include “Luv To Luv” and "Fascinated", Suzanne Palmer remixes on *69 Records, Tommy Boy Records “Love Song”(an ode to the legendary Israeli songstress Ofra Haza) and "Lift It Up" by Inaya Day (which spent time at 1 on Billboard) and a remix for DJ Chus "Black Rain" on Stereo Productions. Paulo’s latest work includes a remix of Chaka Kahn and Mary J Blige’s "Disrespectful" (1 on Billboard). His unique mixes can be found on numerous DJ compilations and set lists. “My goal is to continue the production route and bring new things to my events that aren’t available anywhere else.” If you haven’t already spent an evening being transported by DJ Paulo’s unique sets of tribal-injected deep house mixed with soaring diva vocals... rest assured, you will experience a night on the dance floor unlike any other, and you will be back for more! -Christine Embon, revised 4/08
