PARADIGM'S  personal best of sets picks.

My summer mix from 2013. This is as smooth as they get. A late morning, early afternoon Progressive groover. The mixing is superb on this one if I do say so myself. From 138-134 it still maintains a journey element in the truest sense of the word progressive.

Summer 2014 mix, and true to form this one also represents a journey. Building from edgier Progressive into banging Full On, this mix is a steady upwards climb in energy. It showcases some label tracks from United Beats including Block Devices recent monsters and Mad Maxx collaborations. As well as tracks from progressive label SourceCode Transmissions, all seamlessly mixed to provide a the listener a nice voyage through Psychedelic Trance.

Paradigm live @ Abduction Zone - May 2017

After many requests I have decided to make this set public. It was recorded nearly a year ago in December 2016 at a indoor event by Los Angeles crew Subterranean Dwellers. This event featured all DJ's playing retro sets. My set was of some classic Full On including many hit tracks from what I would consider the golden age of the subgenre 2003-2006.
The recent passing of Eyal Yankovich partly inspired me to release this. Many of the tracks contained in this mix are from his label Homega, a label which has had a profound and undeniable influence on the music I love. In some ways putting this out feels like my own little tribute, insignificant as it may be to the man who coined the term Full On.

This was a very fun set and mix for me. It may not be the cleanest and it may be cheesy as all hell but damn did it take me back. I hope it does the same for you.

Known for his detailed and surgical mixing style, a well curated taste of music and the ability to weave a story through a set regardless of style or time of day. Paradigm is a DJ's DJ. A rare slice of the old school that still believes in the "art of the mix" and the story telling journey aspect of a performance. 
Residing in Los Angeles since 2013, Paradigm has found himself a mainstay of the United States Psychedelic scene for multiple generations having previously called San Francisco, Denver and the American Midwest as home. As both a event promoter and DJ he has long brought forth a ethic of professionalism and exceptionalism.
The years have seen him associated with many major players in the global scene. As a promoter, he is a integral part of the Pulse Events team, a event organization that can easily be argued as being the most regarded Psy oriented crew in the United States. Wearing his DJ hat as he refers to it, Paradigm has been a label DJ for Blacklite Records and United Beats and farther in the past for Maia and Mindfunk records. With multiple well charted compilations to his name, he continues to show that his finger is always on the pulse of Trance, no matter the era.
In 2018 he has launched Sculpted Sounds,his own label project with the intent on raising the bar of the United States and North America's contributions to the world wide scene. While Paradigm has enjoyed considerable success throughout his home continent  2018 is looking like a global breakout year for him alongside Sculpted Sounds.
 Sometimes controversial but always passionate one would be hard pressed to deny his drive and love for Psychedelic , Full On and Progressive Trance.
