Paul Mac

TVC podcast 005 welcomes Paul Mac to deliver an exclusive 1hr mix, having recently completed his 4th studio album 'Hotel Insomnia' he takes us through a template of crunchy beats, acid bassline and intricate melody in the first ten minutes alone. Click play and let the festive period begin.

After following the familiar UK path of Electro/Hip Hop/Acid House/Techno it has now been 24 years since Paul Mac started dj’ing and he has been producing for nearly 17, having recorded for over 50 labels including Sino, Theory , Ingoma, Kb Records Inc and Kanzleramt to name only a few and with nearly 140 release’s to his name its probably fair to call him a veteran of the scene.

After over 20 years of playing with records Paul has now made the jump to Ableton this has opened a lot of new doors musically and has reinvigorated his passion for the music. As well as his normal solo performances the future will see more performances with; Ben Sims as they finally bring the K.B Productions sound out of the studio and into the clubs, Mark Williams as the now infamous Sou Tai duo one of the more intense Techno performances on the circuit and finally as part of The Essex Rascals with Ben Sims, Tony Anderson and Mark Broom with more old school party influenced sets of Disco, Funk, Hip Hop and whatever else.

Forthcoming this year see's an album on EPM with an all new live show plus releases on Stimulus and Theory as well as the much promised return of his Valmay alter ego.
