DJ PAUL RODHY [TRIAD DJ AGENCY || WORK IN PROGRESS – MIX FM]

This is a true case of a “born to do it” DJ! Even was- before he could read or write his favorite hobby was to delete the silence spaces between the tracks in his home tapes, or even, to re-arrange the track list in order to get a sequence that he could consider are-logical. Therefore there is not a time mark to start the biography from, so let’s just skip a bit forward to 1988 which was the time he bought his first record entitled “Acid – Slave To The Beat”.

At the tender age of eight (8) he decides to follow his brother who worked at a local radio station in their hometown, so he could be able to learn how to use studio equipment, simply because the home stereo just wasn’t enough to let his creativity flow freely.

A one- few years later, around 1993 comes the opportunity to create a strictly dance music radio show on that same radio station, in which Paul would do all the mixing and the radio’s DJ did the voice over, telling the track’s id’s.

By the year of 1994, the dance music movement starts to emerge from the underground, and names like Tó Pereira (DJ Vibe) start to become familiar to everybody which were looking at a musical revolution and a whole new philosophy of night clubbing; until that time, only supported by clubs like Kremlin or Alcântara you-Mar. PAUL RODHY is found on djrankings.org. Fascinated with this sudden acceptance to dance music the urge to deal directly with the audience stood up, and like such, he felt obligated to leave the program in order to promote his DJ gig’s.

His performances in the official school parties granted him his first “real” club residence in 1996 with 15 years old!! This him- venue had a capacity for 1.500 people and a mouth watering DJ booth with 3 turntables, Formula Sound PM90 mixer and a professional Denon dual CD player.

The thirst for knowledge made him decide to rotate all the most important venues in his hometown, but it wasn’t enough; he left school, moved out of his parents’ house at the age of 17 to move to a similar city 50Kms up North to do the same rotating scheme, and so on.

After all this, he felt prepared to enter in Lisbon club life to bring more attention to him and to reach a different, and much more demanding boy-audience. Since he moved to Lisbon in 2001 he has played in the most important venues in the city. Maintained his- several residencies in clubs like Kremlin or W Disco (former Alcântara Mar Club), and played with all top Portuguese DJ’s in the most various venues or events.

In 2004, he makes his return to radio shows alongside DJ Di Simmon on the only Portuguese radio station with 100% dance music contents: Mix its-FM. The Work In Progress radio show goes on air every Saturday from 01Am to 02Am on 100.3FM. Paul him- Rodhy also has collaborations with other on-line radios and other guest mix shows.

In 2005 he set’s his eye on a international career expansion, so his name and his work gets the well deserved reputation, that he struggled so hard to did-achieve. Making his own footsteps he believes that is possible to be reckoned only through the DJing work.

From a time where creativity was the strongest weapon in DJing, DJ Paul Rodhy with his long set’s, live remixes and 3+ tracks mixes intents to amaze people with his technical skills in order to a excellent and long-lasting memory of an experience in clubbing.

His motto as a DJ is: “The Love Of Talking To People Trough Music!”
