Paul Frick was born in Berlin. He started to play the piano at the age of seven and took composition classes since the age of twelve. From 2000 to 2008 he studied composition with Friedrich Goldmann at Universität der Künste Berlin. Paul Frick has written and performed music in various contexts and styles: pieces for orchestra, chamber music (including one short opera), theatre music, music for radio plays (Deutschlandradio Kultur), experimental improvisation. On his way to house music, he played guitar in a heavy metal band, tried to be a rapper, played the keys in jazz, r'n'b, hiphop and salsa bands and produced two hiphop albums. A big influence were his bandmates from Konsens who made him enthusiastic about 4/4-bassdrums. Lately his EPs on Kalk Pets, THE GYM, Klamauk and 30porumalinha + RMXs on MBF, Mothership and Spontan have gained him attention for achieving complex musical textures and high dancefloor functionality at the same time.
Paul Frick plays live with a groovebox, a sampler and sometimes a keyboard, NO computer.
Also check his acoustic techno and house project "Brandt Brauer Frick" that will soon publish 2 EPs on Tartelet Records incl. RMXs by Lee Jones, Losoul and Treplec as well as a full length album. Do something. Knock on wood. Show less
