'Music was my first love', that's definitely true for me. Long before I discovered the beauty of female attraction, arts and good food, I perceived the emotional excitement of good music. I grew up with progressive rock in the 70s with the likes of Pink Floyd, Genesis and Supertramp. Beginning of the 80s Philly Sound brought me to Soul and Funk. The Street Sounds Collection opened my mind for Disco Music and House. Inspired by the beatmixing Mixtapes of the DMC (Disco Mix Club) in the early 80s I decided to start a DJ career, which I unfortunately was forced to stop after a few weeks. I had my first residency in the club ‘Veritas’ in Neuss for owner Dieter Scharper. They did not understand the concept of beatmixing at those days and refused to provide Technics 1200 or Thorens turntables. Instead, they forced me to play with Panasonic turntables without a pitch option, degraded me to a jukebox. I kicked the job after three weeks and focused on a business career.

In 2005, after years of inspiring party events on Ibiza, me and my wife created the party circle 'privatemonkey.com' to bring a high level electronic and 'non posh' party to Düsseldorf. Being a booker for this event for more than a decade developed my music expertise and brought me back to the place behind the Mixer in 2015, when a friend asked me to perform for his new party event.

Since then, I developed my DJ skills and performed for several well known local events including Club102, Silq, PrivateMonkey, Oh Baby Anna, Meshugge Bar, La Rocca, Schwarz and many more.

I am usually booked to play melodic deephouse and techno sounds around 120-125 bpm, but I feel very comfortable playing 125-130 bpm peak time techno or a nice chillout afternoon as well.

MAKING DANCE MUSIC SINCE 1997, More about me. .............. 
Paul Bug started off making music back in the days of the atari st at a ripe age of 14 when all you needed was passion and a sythersiser, of course he only had a cheap yamaha keyboard but it gave him the means to enable him to learn sequencer basics on good old cubase. After the advent of pcs he moved on to logic audio and realised music was going to be a key part of his existence. He decided to complete a national diploma in popular music mainly as a guitarist but once he got into the college studio and saw the flashing leds on the syths and samplers it was time to move more towards the electronic realms. Progressing on from the popular music course he decided to complete a higher national diploma (or HND) in music technology and since graduation he met up with various artists starting with rhythm code (Neil Barber & Asher Jones) completed a remix for a track named 'Lullaby' on Cuba Records which took a while to come out on wax so in the meantime he was introduced to a label named Dirty Blue records through rhythm code. Dirty Blue quickly snapped up Paul Bugs Wake up and it came out under his guise of 'Beetlebug' this received a lot of publicity from 3 beat recordings as the Dirty Blue label was a 3 beat offshoot, quotes came from names such as Sander Klienberg, John Digweed and even Roger Sanchez to name a few. Moving on from here he met up with Dave Coates and Paul Mcguinness and collectivley formed 'Inbetween Dj's' who music policy was to 'read between the muscial lines' and make tracks with a bit of twist. The first release 'Animal Jazz Vol.1' had various labels fighting for the rights but eventually Aaron carl from 'Wallshaker Records (Detroit)' snapped it up. This received global support from Dj's arross the world and quickly became a favorite with Dj Heather (Classic,20/20) John Larner (Nightshift Records, Gallery), DJ Alena (Igloo), Phil Weeks (Robsoul), Honey Dijon (Peaches), James Curd (Green keepers), Paul Woolford (20/20, Robsoul), Nic Fanciulli (Radio 1) and Jacob (Music for Freaks)...the ep was being heard at such clubs as Circus, Chibuku, Back to Basics, Stylus, The Bomb in the Uk to more U.S based club/bars like 'Cloud 9' and 'Dotbleep' in Chicago. Whlie working on there 2nd E.P for Wallshaker Records 'Beat these Bitches' the boys decided to explore the realms of tech/tribal house a bit more by releasing a record named 'I Like It Deep' on Zimbardos label Z-Tribe Records under another guise 'Mandika People' this got Heavy DJ rotation from Tom Stephan, Behrouz, Moshic, Zimbardo and many more. 

Moving on to pastures new Paul Bug has decided to move on to a new frontier of music and work on more solo ventures under his own name, the decision to incorporate any type of electronic music into his work and keep a focus on on a big sound are the only rules.
