Education:
They
say education takes you places. In the case of Paultek that can
be taken both literally as well as figuratively. Since he wasn’t
quite the A-student, his focus went from school grades to music.
At 16 he started mixing with cd’s. It didn’t take
long ‘till he found his way to local vinyl stores. And so
the early concept of D-minus was on the go.
Passion:
The very first LP to slide into his Curver box was Nathan Fake
with The sky was pink. Like any other dj with an urge to share
the passion for music, he started playing at local parties and
bars such as Patjelli’s, rectors Break out, underground
private parties, Swimsuit Festival and as a resident at Tropics
party, Cirque Constance Festival and PolderFest. In order to reach
even more people with his sounds, Paultek decided to take his
first steps into the producing world. And so he decided to revise
the D-minus concept and introduce Paultek (Tribute to his father)
Inspiration:
To Paultek, music unleashes an undeniable energy to create. Icons
like Richie Hawtin, Sven Väth and Dominik Eulberg count as
true sources of inspiration. That’s why the Paultek sound
is a melting pot of jazz, funky house, balkan beats as well as
dark punchy techno enriched by fresh mixing skills.
