Paul Lock began his journey into music production around 2016-2017. He started by learning to produce in a new genre (deep house and nu disco) that he wasn’t previously familiar with.
Initially inspired by Funky House, his love for club music grew over time, eventually leading him to try his hand at producing his own music in the studio.
Lock embarked on this new phase of his career while also managing significant life changes, including securing a new job, moving to a new house, and becoming a father to twins. He also started with no industry contacts and had to learn many new skills related to music production.
Despite these challenges and a busy schedule, he managed to make significant progress in the music industry within just three years, becoming known in the deep house and nu disco scenes.
Lock has been successful in developing his own unique style in nu disco and deep house, characterized by “luscious chords, emotional melodies, and Paul’s signature banging bassline”. He also began releasing music on labels such as Deep Disco Records and Deep Territory Records.
Lock is an artist who transitioned from DJing to music production later in his career, quickly gaining traction in the electronic music scene through determination and hard work.
