Episode 13: Paul Cazzar — Storytelling Through Sound

This time on MusicLab, we’re joined by Paul Cazzar — a DJ and radio host from Melbourne, Australia, whose life has been deeply intertwined with the rhythms and atmospheres of progressive house.

Inspired by the golden era of Sasha, John Digweed, and Anthony Pappa, Paul brings that legacy into the present with sets that are emotive, immersive, and narratively rich. Growing up amidst Melbourne’s vibrant underground scene, he developed a keen ear for music that moves people — not just physically, but emotionally.

Paul’s approach is rooted in storytelling. His sets flow with deep grooves, melodic tension, and cinematic textures that take listeners on a journey — a style that has become his signature both behind the decks and on the airwaves.

Beyond performing, Paul is a passionate advocate for the progressive house community. As a resident DJ on KISS FM Australia, he consistently shares his sound with a wide audience. He also curates two respected podcast platforms — Progsonic Sessions and White Label Progressive — spaces dedicated to showcasing fresh talent, building community, and keeping the underground spirit alive.

For Paul, progressive house isn’t just a genre — it’s a culture. A shared experience. A living story he continues to tell, one mix at a time.
