Manchester, Madrid<\/a>, Valencia<\/a> and finally London<\/a>. These are the four coordinates that have manufactured the Paul Unkel<\/a> we know today. He was born in the first one, although he is considered Spanish because of his origins. It was in two of the most important cities on the peninsula, Madrid and Valencia, where he became a DJ, where he discovered that his place is in a booth and not playing the guitar or the piano (something that was common in his adolescence).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are now in the \u201980s in Madrid. Possibly the best time for club culture and electronic music in the Spanish capital. Paul Unkel began to make a name for himself in the city\u2019s bars and clubs, while a personal collection of vinyl records was born. A collection that continues to this day. But it wasn\u2019t Madrid or Valencia, but London, the city that became Paul\u2019s home. That was mainly thanks to Egg London<\/a>, the club that first bet on him as a resident DJ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

As a techno music producer, I try to create a unique sound and to put my own signature on each track. I always give my pure knowledge and background from the ’80s and ’90s electronic music, adding some new features from the present day and the new generation of music producers. When DJing, I seek a connection to become the union between the tracks, the equipment, the crowd, and myself.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since moving to London, Paul Unkel has been much more focused on his facet as a producer – many of his works have been released on the Iboga<\/a> and IbogaTech<\/a> labels – although his DJ profile keeps ruling on his new radio show Magna Frequencies<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
