“And just quietly, no in fact very LOUDLY, Bec Paton absolutely ripped up the support set. Nice work, some seriously deep selections in there. Lets see that name on more bills please!” Gaslamp Killer 2008, The Brag
“We arrived to find the lush sounds of ex-Canberran Bec Paton doing a warm-up set that... would have been more than enough entertainment for one night. Her sublime mixing of records that would pose problems to the most talented of selectors formed a beat-laden, diverse, bass-y and beautiful introduction to the night ... and seemed like a tribute to all Krush is about: gorgeous sounds juxtaposed by drums-of-death.” DJ Krush 2008, BMA Magazine
“I enjoyed the next act more than the headliner… Bec Paton’s set absolutely blew me away. Glitchy, bassy and just downright cool, I couldn’t help but get my ‘groove awn’… and was fixated for an hour in some kind of dubby, wacked-out hypnotic trance.” Raiden 2008, InTheMix
“Bec Paton is one of the few Australian DJs who can do more than string together an hour’s worth of good tracks.” Cyclic Defrost Magazine
There’s something special about seeing such a fanatical crate digger blaze through around forty or so tracks in an hour; seamlessly combining hip hop, electronica, broken beats and dubstep, in a really cool and innovative way. Her stage presence is infectious too, and has earned her many loyal fans.
Versatile enough to rock festivals like Days Like This!, The Great Escape, Newtown and Surry Hills Festivals, Cockatoo Island Festival, and Pete’s Ridge Festival, she still sends chills down the spine at smaller parties like VOID, Headroom and Space Is The Place.
Her music knowledge and technical skills behind the turntables allow her to weave many different sounds into one intoxicating rhythm and the final fabric is undeniably imbued with the funk--a fact readily proven by her trail of devastation on dancefloors around the country.
Some of the artists Bec has supported:
DJ Krush, Kid Koala, Amon Tobin, DJ Kentaro, Luke Vibert, Spank Rock, Saul Wiliams, El-P, Bassnectar, Skream, Benga, Four Tet, Nightmares On Wax, Flying Lotus, Boom Bip, Mike Paradinas, Hudson Mohawke, Zero DB, Harmonic 313, The Streets, GrooveArmada, Dynamo Productions, Ursula Rucker, Ben Mono, High Contrast, Raiden, Joker, Goth Trad, Decoder Ring, Tes La Rok, The Herd, The Avalanches, Hermitude, Hilltop Hoods, The Bird, Unkle Ho...
