Peter Pavlov - Aftershock Podcast #08 (September 2016)
------
Episode 8 of my monthly podcast "Aftershock". 
(Aftershock concept is based on 10 selected tracks from my "Secret Weapons" arsenal.)
This episode is not as the previous ones. It's not another Tech, Deep House or Techno set. The vibes here are melancholic, dark, uplifting, something that really defines why music can touch us emotionally. I would really be happy to hear some feedback from you about this style.

Peter Pavlov is a name that has consistently emerged from the burgeoning Tech House and Techno scene in
recent times. The Sofia-based producer made his big breakthrough in 2016, with a remix on DJ Lion’s
“Robosapiens” track, which also won best remix in the Beatport contest and smashed straight into the charts. In
his short career, he played in venues worldwide including: Ministry Of Sound, Egg, Blue Room Ibiza, Yalta, Cacao
Beach, Plazma and more.
Peter’s signature sound - raw, energetic, low- slung bass-driven but very musical at the same time - is decisively
made for the dance floor. Powerful sound which grabs the audience and takes them to the highest peak possible
from music.
Uncompromisingly selective, Peter digs ever deeper for the real dance floor gems. Just like in real life, his sets are
not liking monotony, there is a desire to get moving. Breaking habits routinely makes his performance
unpredictable. Hear him in action behind the decks and you’ll find yourself immersed in a soundscape that’s
impossible to ignore.
Since 2018, building a reputation in the small but very friendly club scene in Varna, Peter is best known for
organising his own events, which were acknowledged as “the craziest and most exciting parties in town” -
Octombre Fest, Wet & Wild (Foam Party).
So far, 20 of his releases have reached Beatport Top 100 charts and 7 of them - Top 10. Released for labels like
Cloning Sound, Patent Skillz, Klaphouse, Dear Deer, Pocket Jacks Trax, Box Of Cats, Heavenly Bodies.
Later in 2020, expecting release for Lost Records, Leftwing:Kody's label, with a remix which also won first place in
the competition.

From Raver to Dj to Producer 

Martin grew up in the raving 90's and 2000's with a passion for multiple genres of music including breakbeat, hardcore, hard house, trance, drum and bass, hip hop and house music of all varieties.
Always involved in music from a very young age he took to the mic to be an MC at age 14 and thrived on any house party or event that he could get involved in. Martin always wanted to be a dj but could not afford a setup for many years, so he practiced on his friend’s kit at every chance he could get. Finally in 2005 Martin acquired his first set of Technics 1210's and began to master his craft. When he felt he was ready to play out, he hit his local clubs in Bournemouth such as The Old Fire Station, Empire, Dusk Till Dawn and DNA.
Whilst studying for his degree at university he became friends with like-minded drum and bass enthusiasts and together they launched their first event Fracture at Dusk Till Dawn. Martin has never looked back.
Now with 15 years plus experience in the industry under his alias Dj Xj, Martin has achieved many of his goals and dreams. In the summer of 2017, he made his debut on the clubbing island of Ibiza, touring with the Parasol collective in association with Darkest before Dawn Records.
In the summer of 2018, he landed a dj residency in Cyprus with Ayia Napa House Party, hosted by House Party Events and performed alongside house legend Junior Jack plus 50 other national and international artists. He returned again in 2019 with his fellow residents joining line ups this time including dj's Craig Knight, Hot Like Detroit and Franky Wah. 
In the summer of 2019 he ticked another goal of his list by landing his first festival slot at Home Farm Fest in Somerset. To top off the year he was also booked to play at the largest dance festival in Wales, Logic Fest. Here he played alongside Ian Van Dahl, N-Trance, 4 Strings, Flip & Fill, Breeze, Scott Brown, Darren Styles, TechnoBoy, Andy Whitby, Judge Jules, Bliss, Dave Pearce, Marcella Woods and many, many more.
During the 2020 lockdown Martin applied himself to as many online live stream events as possible. He was spotted and approached by several charity event organisers, including BBC South News promoted Drum and Bass event Mental Health Matters; a collective initiated to help raise money for Mind charity. The event showcasing nationwide dj talent, including XJ, raised thousands of pounds for this worthy cause.  
Now Xj starts his next venture in music production as Manticore
