Biography
Marking his home in San Francisco since 1998, Paolo, a native of Manila, literally landedhis “chenelas” on house nation soil and hit the ground running. Not having access to turntables,Paolo’s passion for house urged him to fiddle with virtual turntables on his PC and picking upvinyl whenever finances could afford it.
By 2001, Paolo frequented many house parties and one in particular, OM’s monthly that featuredMark Farina and a five hour set by Derrick Carter, would reflect an inspiration and motive to puthis “fiddling” into reality. Not much later he bumped elbows with another aspiring musician, BrianSalazar and with friends, they created they’re own satirical crew, The Housemen and femalecounterparts, The Housewives. Since then he has forged a sound that is soulful, groovy andpumped with vivacious horns, percussion, spanking bass lines, unstoppable breakdowns andsultry vocals..
Shortly after, Paolo played a bevy of smaller house parties in the Bay Area, including someventures in Los Angeles with fellow Housemen, Darwin Paul and Justin Michael. Word of mouthspread quickly and he was then booked at Remedy, SF’s legendary soulful/funky house party.Paolo is also a regular at The Cardiff Lounge in Campbell and held a residency at InfusionLounge in SF.
Ever consistent and growing, he has graced the decks with powerhouses, Grant Nelson, Jamie Lewis, Jay-J at WMC 2006. Kaskade, Jask, David Harness, Chuck Love, Julius Papp, Ruben
Mancias, Craig C of the Pound Boys, Deepswing, & Patrick Wilson are among the other bignames that he has had the honor of sharing the decks with.
Although his djing career has been blessed, Paolo still has plans on not just playing locally but also internationally, including a return trip to his motherland.
