PAUL MAC BIO
Paul Mac is one of the leading figures in Australian electronic music.
He’s a conservatorium graduate and a multi ARIA award winner for his work with underground dance pioneers Itchee & Scratchee and for his own solo work. He’s scored music for films and TV. His remixes of artists like Gorillaz, Silverchair and Powderfinger have also established him as one of this country's pre-eminent remixers.
In addition to his multiple ARIA awards, some of Paul’s career highlights include Australian Dance Music Awards for “Outstanding Contribution to Dance” and for “Producer Of The Year”. He has received an APRA Award, an MTV Award and been named “Dance Artist Of The Year” three times in recent years in Rolling Stone’s Readers Poll.
Paul’s acclaimed gold selling debut solo album “3000 Feet High” was released in August 2001 by indie label, Eleven: a music company. Recorded in his Blue Mountains studio, the album’s first single sold out its pressing within a week of release. The second single, the gold selling anthem “Just The Thing” (featuring vocals by Peta Morris), was a 1 multi format hit.
Paul then formed a band with Silverchair’s Daniel Johns in 2004. Calling themselves The Dissociatives their self titled debut album was one of the most acclaimed releases of that year. The album was also a commercial success yielding two top 40 singles and was certified gold within a week of its release.
In late 2005 Paul released his much anticipated sophomore solo album. Titled PANIC ROOM the album was written and produced by Paul in his new Sydney inner city home studio. Peta Morris returned to deliver the opening single (“Sunshine Eyes”) once again showcasing Paul’s trademark emotive lyrical punch. The single debuted in the national top 30 and the album’s club tracks (“Panic Room” & “It’s Not Me, It’s You”) both achieved top 10 in the national dance charts.
After recording with his great mates in Silverchair Paul toured the world with the band as special guest performer on their 2007/08 YOUNG MODERN world tour. Most recently Paul has been as busy as ever writing the title music for Australian film “Hey Hey It’s Esther Blueburger” and mixing Mr G’s radio and club smash “Naughty Girl”. He’s also hosting the current series of BigPond Music’s “Monday Night Live” and he has scored and produced the music for much loved comedian Frank Woodley’s theatre production “Possessed”.

On youtube the video for 'Gonna Miss You' is incorrectly labelled as being soley Abby Dobson (as awesome as she is the Paul in the video begs to differ). I didn't really know how else to get this out to Paul fans (and maybe Paul himself if he was unaware *waves if he is looking*) so I thought this would be an appropriate forum because I had never seen this video before and I just adore it, I'd been searhing high and low for it and then gave up a few months ago (surprisingly the same time that it was posted those crafty swine at emimusic) but now that I've found it I thought y'all might like to take a quick look and smile. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8bZilzI6Dns much love and respect to the Mac and his fans, peace out.
