Soule Monde is avant funk erupting from the syncopated minds of power drummer Russ Lawton + B3 wizard Ray Paczkowski. An ideal union of swagger and raw talent, the duo is cemented into an indestructible pocket, where bold improvisational leaps by either player are met by a near-telepathic response from the other. This is fluid funk, crafted for the dance floor but supported by an extensive grasp of jazz improvisation. 

Members of Soule Monde have appeared at Bonnaroo, Austin City Limits, on Saturday Night Live, David Letterman, Jay Leno, Conan O'Brien and Jimmy Fallon, and have shared the stage with Carlos Santana, Rolling Stones, Trey Anastasio, Dave Matthews, Victor Wooten, Mike Gordon, Viperhouse + Strangefolk

Inspired by the sounds of Funk, Soul, Disco, House and Hip Hop, I am a student of the evolution of sample based music.

I've had the opportunity to play direct support for AZ based crews such as June Jam, Walter, Record Bar Radio, BFF, Relentless Beats, IDGAFNK, Synesthesia  and open up for great talent like DJ Craze, Chromeo, Louis Futon, Blockhead, Doc Martin, Mija, Lazy Syrup Orchestra, Liquid Stranger, Anna Lunoe, Touch Sensitive, Funk Hunters, Russ Liquid, Late Night Radio, R3LL, Phutureprimitive, Cazztek, Option4, Astronomar, Dash Berlin, and Kill Paris.

I grew up in a house where my dad’s band would practice a couple of times a week. They played covers of Santana and Collective Soul at full volume while waited for my chance to mess around with his drum kit or the Yamaha keyboard to play around with the “DJ” sound effects. In high school, I learned to play bass, but around my 16th birthday, I got exposed to my first underground dance party. I remember lining up outside of The Icehouse in Downtown Phoenix under the yellow streetlights and praying my parents had bought my excuse for sneaking away that night. Once inside, I was blown away by the vibrancy and diversity of the music and people celebrating. I immediately gravitated to a stage with local hardcore DJ’s Starr & Sixxx as they hyped the party into a frenzy, and at that moment, I wanted to learn to DJ so I could share positive experiences like that with people.

I built a following as a rave DJ in the valley while still in high school, which eventually lead to throwing events with some of my closest friends. A few of which attracted thousands of young kids like us looking for a new place to dance in the predominately rap music dominated years of 2008. After 6 years of gigs, the “rave” culture started to wear me thin and I started to reassess my personal goals with music. At the time, I was working at Whole Foods, that’s when I met 3 friends that would change the trajectory of my life for good. We joked about being the “Whole Foods DJ’s” and decided we needed to throw shows together.

Eventually, the crew grew into an organic music sharing platform known as “Brunch Collect” We invite all types of upcoming producers and musicians to share their art online and in real venues. When the community we built began rapidly growing beyond state lines, I knew we were onto something good. Out of all my accomplishments as a solo DJ, I have never been happier with the direction of my life than I am right now. Nothing beats the feeling of helping others develop and growing as a team, instead of us focusing on our own success separately.

"If music doesn't  take you somewhere then it's not worth listening to." Adam Arlia 

Born with an admiration and natural talent for music Adam Arlia began playing music at the age of five.  After graduating from The Conservatory of Recording Arts and Sciences in Tempe, AZ with a certification in Audio Engineering Adam moved to New York City in 2002.  While in New York he finished his internship at Broadway Video where his position consisted of editing sound in independent film and commercials for major networks such as Comedy Central, HBO, The Cartoon Network and Showtime.  Adam's focus turned to electronica once realizing the dimensionality and depth that could be created through the layering of sounds and beats.  

In 2003 Adam began working with various record labels and night clubs in NYC such as, Giant Step, System Recordings, Crobar, & Avalon(former Limelight).  During his career with Giant Step and System Recordings Adam served as a marketer and promoter for artists including, Diesel Boy, The New Deal, STS9, Sasha and Digweed, Dj Icey, Derrek Carter, Franky Bones, Josh Wink,  James Zabiela, Bad Boy Bill and Son of the Electric Ghost(aka Bill Bless).  Since then, and for the last 12 years Adam has been creating and producing a variety of tracks and mixes.  Currently Adam is focusing on releasing EP's, compilations, and singles while working individually and amongst other musical partners.  Warpdrive Outlaw is a fusion music project composed of Adam Arlia and Matt Gewicky, spinning minimal house, electro, complextro, dubstep, breaks, and trip hop.  

For Adam music should be a force that provides people with the ability to travel through a space inhibited in the mind.  "Music should spark emotions and intentions to create," Adam says. In the future he intends on working towards the promise of a tour including a live set with keyboards, samplers, and drum machines.  In the end what is important to Adam is sharing his love and passion of sound and building a community based on conscious productivity through movement.
