Rhythmic Classics have been the driving forces for this Southern California import from Cali, Colombia now calling Baja California Mexico his home. Paulo's vision for music is rooted in his passion to integrate cutting edge production technology with his more traditional Latin roots and other musical influences in Jazz, Blues, Soul, Disco, Hip Hop, Rock, and Funk.  Paulo’s minimalistic, raw, and forward-thinking approach to House and Techno music have laid the way for releases on Surface Recordings, Honne Music, Dubgestion, Lethal Script Label, MIU Recordings, Cubek Records, Underdub Records, and music collaborations with House music notable Brian "Halo" Varga and gifted music producer Ra.Mod as "Cess", for high regarded vinyl only imprints such as All Inn Records, FA>IE, and NG Trax.

Juanitos Playground [06] Feat. Paulo

Juanito’s Playground is an extended mix format music podcast produced by Kevin Martinez a.k.a. Lefthook. Featuring a variety of genres, Juanito gives guest DJs space to showcase the depths of their musical talent, knowledge, and influences. It’s a meeting place for these artists to communicate new ideas and share innovative creative expression. This open-minded approach encourages musicians to have fun and capture joyful moments of sonic experimentation. Juanito himself is a little West Coast OG dog and first hand vato of Lefthook.

I needed a place to keep these mixes alive.

Paulo is an electronic producer whose music, though often classified as minimal, blends classic elements of jazz, funk, blues, and latin swing with future-facing elements of house, techno, hip-hop, and nu wave. Paulo’s philosophy is, if the music is good, it’s good. Period. Refusing to be mired in the restraints and minutiae of infinitely more complex electronic music genres, his tracks range from the bright sax and sexy breakbeat of Flex Your Consciousness to the heavy bass swing and eerie sythwork of Oort - Original Mix . 

Written with the dancefloor in mind, all of Paulo’s tunes have one thing in common– a relentless, effortless, creamy groove. It’s a cadence that reverberates throughout his life– a lust for forward motion that reminds us all to remain resilient in the face of adversity. Inspired by observation and tinted with experience, each of Paulo’s tracks is chapter in his edition of the story of everything. It’s a dark universe he’s created, but also one of fantastic imagination. 

Paulo’s minimalistic, raw, and forward-thinking approach to House and Techno music have laid the way for releases on Vuew Recordings, Surface Recordings, Honne Music, I Records, DubGestion, RAZOM, Good Luck Penny Records, Konsep Records, Ruem Trax, Beatness Music, Noisy Nose Records, Lethal Script Label, Miu Recordings, Underdub Records, Cubek Records, and music collaborations with House music notable Brian "Halo" Varga and music producer Ra.Mod as "Cess", for high regarded vinyl imprints such as All Inn Records, FA>IE Records, and NG Trax.
His latest project, Current Creative Mood Records, serves as his self-publishing house for unique musical creations extending outside his signature dance music aesthetic and style.

A DJ of 17 years, Justin's style is heavily influenced by his early years growing up in the Florida Breaks scene in the late 90's and early 2000's, living in Europe for a couple years (notably his visits to Lisbon, Portugal), and more recently living on the US West Coast in Seattle and now San Francisco. He recently launched the Oopsie Dayzee monthly day party at Mars Bar, San Francisco. For 7yrs when he lived in Seattle, Justin was a Viva Recordings Resident DJ for the monthly THIS! party at Monkey Loft, Seattle. 

Justin is deeply passionate about honoring the history and tradecraft of deejaying, witnessed by his obsessive vinyl digging addiction and all vinyl sets. His approach as a DJ is to weave through many genres, a kind of journey through historical and contemporary sounds and styles of electronic music. As such, his style is hard to class as this or that, and that's just way he likes it. The fundamental role of electronic music based in its roots, is the ability for it to tear down the little boxes that constrain our growth as a human race and instead open up new doors of perception necessary to advance. At the end of the day, What you can expect from Justin is his superb selections skillfully presented in a way to make you move and groove, and on occasion to think a little differently about the concept of music.
