Paji's album debut on KATERMUKKE combines techno and progressive house with acoustic classical instruments and a little arabesque exoticism. Electronic dance music, melodic house or techno - simply sorting Paji into one of these genres would not do justice to his musical uniqueness. Since his first EP, which was released in 2013, he has created a symbiosis of classical and traditional instruments as well as electronic sound generators, creating unmistakable listening experiences, mostly with the typically danceable 118-125 bpm. With his first album Paji, which will be released on Katermukke in 2019, he is freeing himself from such stereotypes. With his debut work he finally defines his very own musical identity and presents himself as a mature, authentic artist with that certain something. It is no coincidence that the album bears his name: Titles like the intro Oraman lead the listeners to his oriental roots. On the other hand, Paji shows his musical cosmopolitanism and love for contemporary, melodious dance music with Wild Flowers and Virtue. A special highlight is Raw Water, which was created in collaboration with his long-time friends and companions Tube&Berger. With the Outro Yggdrasil, which means something like Weltbaum or where everything comes together, the musical circle closes and the album ends as it began - with an audible and tangible journey into Paji ?s colourful music world. With his debut album, Paji has created 11 distinctive listening experiences, 11 unique compositions, produced with passion and love, which will not only fill the dance floors of the clubs and enrich them with new facets. Paji also creates a special atmosphere in the car, on the couch or while walking in the woods and is thus more than just another album from the genre of electronic dance music.
