Tall Paul, began his DJ'ing career in 1987 at the tender age of 16, playing for office parties at his dad’s nightclub
Turnmills. At the same time Paul started to run his own pirate radio station called Touchdown FM and had already
managed to blag a spot on the capital's legendary pirate Sunrise FM. Paul also used his persuasive powers to get a
one hour slot at Turnmills' Saturday all-nighter Trade and in 1990 his obvious talent gained him his first residency, and
as gay clubs have always been at the forefront of innovation in dance music, Paul quickly became recognised for
playing what one might alternatively call hard-edged-house anthems. Not long after his residency at Trade, Paul was
offered a residency at the Zap Club in Brighton and there met up with Shelley Boswell, which lead to regular slots at
the Gardening Clubs’ “Club For Life”.
 
In 1992 Paul put out his first vinyl offering - the white label 'Love Rush', a Trade anthem. He then hooked up with Hooj
Choons' Red Jerry who with reference to his 6'6" frame christened him with the title "Tall Paul” and came up with the
dance classic "Rock Da House," (later to be re-released in 1997 on VC Recordings, reaching No. 11 in the national
charts.) Paul then went on to produce numerous top 40 hits including the club anthems Escrima "Deeper" and "Train
of Thought", and his highest entry to date, Camisra "Let Me Show You", entered new at No. 5.
 
All this lead to a series of remix projects for artists such as New Order, Stone Roses, Erasure, Human League, Marc
Almond, Wild Child, Hyperlogic, Cappella, Duran Duran, Nalin & Kane, Blondie, Bizarre Inc, Dina Carroll... the list goes
on. Paul’s production talents are recognised in the “DJ Magazine Top Producers Poll,” where Paul features year after
year.
 
Paul has continued his own production success with tracks “Be There”, “Freebase” “Precious Heart” and “Everbody’s A
Rockstar”, both of which feature on Paul’s debut artist album “Back  & Forth” released back in November 2001 and
which continue’s to confirm his reputation as being one of the key players in the UK dance scene.
Paul has also featured on a number of compilations including Virgin’s "The Gallery Modern Masters Vol#1", “Club
Nation 1998" and "Cream Anthems", and Fantazia's "House Collection".  In 1999 Paul signed an album deal with the
Ministry of Sound, with successful mixed compilations including  "Dance Nation 6", "The Ibiza Annual 2", “Millennium
Annual”, “Dance Nation 7” , “Headliners”, “The Annual” and “The Clubber’s Guide to 2001” & “2003” being released.  In
the U.S. the very popularity mixed live series. More recently Gallery live sessions, Globetrotting Peru and live in Bulgaria,
have increased Paul’s popularity around the Globe.
 
Paul won the much coveted “Muzik” DJ of the year in 1998 and consistently appears in the DJ Magazine top 100 year
after year since the Poll’s beginning in 1997. Paul also continues to present his successful Thursday night radio show
“The Mix Down Session” on London's premiere dance station Kiss FM.
 
His popularity has seen him DJ world-wide traveling to the U.S., Canada, Japan, South America, Asia, India, Dubai,
South Africa and all over Europe.  Paul also continues to raise his profile in America where he tours the main cities on
a regular basis. His hectic US tour schedules have paid off. BPM magazine readers have Paul voted 8
th
 in the 2006 
“America’s most Favorite DJ poll”.
