PAUL SCHULZE

Paul Schulze is 22 years old and studied music at the acclaimed Point Blank Music School in London, home of Producer and DJ Dance artists like Felix Jaehn, Klingande and Patrick Topping.

Kwame Kwaten MD of Ferocious Talent says, "Paul’s energy was what first attracted us as a management company to him. He was focused and driven but most of all his ear for a hook and sound design was amazing for somebody so young. Paul clearly creates music that has emotion, depth but is also joyous. He is a true talent.”

London has a knack for carving out frontrunners in music; instrumental in bringing change within genres.

Kaidi & NK-OK have been part of the exciting, loosely interconnected New Jazz scene for about 5 years – NK-OK as part of the successful Jazztronica duo, Blue Lab Beats, and Kaidi playing sax for Tom Misch, Yusef Dayes & Celeste as well as his own band, Invariance. The two have produced a fully collaborative album, Sounds of Afrotronica.

For NK-OK, it represents his first full-length release since Blue Lab Beats’ Voyage. For Kaidi, it’s another chance to stretch his talent outside of playing on huge stages for ‘successful others’ to a proving ground for his own sound. The two come together on Afrotronica.

NK-OK says, “We both love the energy of grime from 2003 onwards and we both love jazz. We learnt jazz at the same place (Tomorrow’s Warriors) and one day in the studio I played Kaidi a track that didn’t fit into Blue Lab’s signature sound. It was more electronic and industrial. He immediately started improvising and soon the layered horns and drums went on to become the song, Time Capsule. We knew from then we had the makings of an album project.”
