Paul Oakenfold

Producer, DJ, and record label owner

Paul Oakenfold’s stature as a DJ and entertainer has taken him beyond the normal club and festival circuit, playing landmark gigs that have changed the face of electronic music. Highlights include three worldwide tours warming up for Madonna and U2 (with both artists insisting on a DJ set from Paul instead of a support band); performing on the Great Wall of China and two sold out dates playing to 30,000 people at the Hollywood Bowl in California. In 2011 Paul took a thousand people and a huge sound system down to the southern most tip of South America – on the Tiera Del Fuego peninsular to DJ all night under the stars at his Party at The End of The World - the Southern most party ever held.

Whether you are listening online, CD, watching a commercial or movie, in a club, at a festival, tuned into the radio or playing a videogame; Paul’s omnimedia presence is felt everywhere.

Paul Oakenfold is the original pioneer of DJ culture and is its most recognizable icon.
