DJ Paul Fricker

As long as I can remember, I have been putting mix tapes together for my family holiday road trips. This quickly progressed into buying turntables and vinyl from a friend when I was 16. 

When I got to university, I started playing for parties in my halls, which led me to playing student nights at local clubs around Coventry. Of course, when I wasn’t DJing, I was either attending the legendary Gods Kitchen or making the annual pilgrimage to Ibiza. 

After 15 years, I never quite ‘made it’ as a DJ, but I did achieve all but two of my lifetime goals. I didn’t play at a Hed Kandi event and I was never on Radio 1. 

Making music has always been a passion for me, but I have never studied or been taught any level of music production. It was more of a bedroom hobby and a labour of love than anything serious. However, my wife, Jess, always encouraged me to do something with my efforts, so here they are.
