With a career spanning over 25 years, Paul Hazendonk is a true veteran of the global electronic music scene. Known for his distinct sound and tireless dedication to his craft, Paul has built a reputation as both an acclaimed DJ and an influential industry figure.

Since the early 2000s, Paul has toured extensively across the globe, performing in more than 40 countries—from the pulsating clubs of Berlin and the underground venues of Toronto, to dancefloors in Sydney, Paris, Kuala Lumpur, Budapest and beyond. He’s held residencies at some of the Netherlands' most iconic nightclubs, including Las Palmas (Rotterdam), Asta (The Hague), and AIR (Amsterdam), and has performed at renowned events such as Awakenings, Dance Valley, and Electronation.

Paul's deep roots in the scene trace back to Rotterdam’s legendary Basic Beat, a well-known record store and record company, where he took his first steps in label management and music curation. It was here that the foundation was laid for Manual Music—his own record company, which has since grown into a respected and influential force within the electronic music landscape. Today, Manual Music is Paul's primary focus. The company encompasses multiple sub-labels and operates its own publishing and digital distribution divisions, managing a vast catalogue of tens of thousands of tracks from a wide range of international artists.

As a music producer, Paul's discography reflects the evolution of electronic music over the years. His work has been released on respected labels such as Get Physical Music, Sony/Epic, Diynamic, Sudbeat, Kittball, Einmusika, and 3000Grad, though in recent years he has focused primarily on releasing through his own Manual Music imprints to retain full creative control and artistic independence. Over the years, he has also released multiple DJ mix compilations and two full-length artist albums.

Beyond the booth and studio, Paul is a respected voice in the Dutch music industry. He’s frequently invited as a keynote speaker and panelist at music conferences and has served as an examiner for the renowned Herman Brood Academy, mentoring the next generation of music professionals.

From underground clubs to global dancefloors, from vinyl bins to running one of the scene’s most trusted brands, Paul Hazendonk’s journey reflects a lifelong dedication to music in all its forms.

Manual Music is a record company, digital distributor and promo pool founded by @paul-hazendonk in 2005. For more info please visit http://www.manual-music.com

90watts was founded by Jeroen van Meeteren and Giorgio Schultz in 1997 and over the years has become a household name in the electronic music landscape. After a period of inactivity between 2012 and 2017, the label was purchased by Paul Hazendonk's Manual Music record company and re-launched as his imprint for timeless club- and DJ friendly house music. Per late 2022 the label received a fresh overhaul once again with the focus shifting slightly more to the organic side of (deep) house music.

Deep Stories is a collective of DJ/producers, writers and photographers with a passion for storytelling in all possible ways. In their universe, sounds, words and images form a complementary unity, so that the audience can absorb all these different sensations at the same time. With this unprecedented vision in mind, DJ’s The Doubljuh and Kork founded the Deep Stories podcast series in 2016, which was enthusiastically received by a rapidly growing community. By amalgamating different lifestyle areas (literature, photography, music) many people quickly became enthused by this innovative project and within a year the Deep stories Soundcloud channel reached the mark of 10K followers before smashing the 20K milestone the following year. Driven by the enormous positive feedback, the team has expanded and founded its own music blog. This allows the audience to stay informed about new releases, events and upcoming gigs, in addition to weekly charts and tips for the weekend planning for electronic music lovers. The latest addition is the new booking feature, by which the artists of the Deep Stories crew can be booked for deep house and techno parties. Thus, the Deep Stories project consists of three components: the podcast series, the music blog and the booking area. Over the years the team has also grown and many partnerships have been sealed. Among other things, there is a close collaboration with other podcast channels, travel blogs and even street artists, fueling yet even more creative minds…
