Aug. 02, 2010. To pun is fun!

We made up one of the most brilliant play on words you've ever heard. Noah Fence will play you our prostitune on our whoremonica without any doubt.

Here it comes. Not a simple pun, much more than that. Fantalicious. You got it?

Nov. 29, 2009. We did it for the lulz

This is a confession. We did it for the lulz.

And doing it for the lulz in real life can have painful consequences, especially if your attempt fails. But success in doing so will usually guarantee you a place in the annals of history. But regardless of success or failure, doing it for the lulz is ALWAYS worth it. In fact, doing it for the lulz is the best thing anyone could ever hope for.
And now let's go to the point, last thing we did for the lulz:

"ITS Caracas" (Paradigma 014) returns to Paradigma Musik in a form of three remixes by Paul Ritch, Prompt and Henry Saiz, moulding a delightful 12-incher for Paradigma's 18th release. From next Monday November 30th on vinyl.

Nov. 18, 2009. Who is Sissy? Does she play the flute?

Paradigma's fourth digital release and 17th overall release called for a bit of flavourful charm this time around, and David Keno was just the man to give the label a pleasant zap of funky beat with his ol' magic candy stick.

Jul. 20, 2009. Alicanuel for the imprint’s sixteenth edition

As we already warned you, we have ready our summer release. Alicanuel, the pairing of Ilario Alicante and his mate Emmanuel, have produced two latin-flavoured dancefloor bangers. Dario Zenker, Karotte, Sweetlight, Angel Molina, H.O.S.H., Hernán Cattáneo, Dandi & Ugo, Ruede Hagelstein, Gregor Tresher and many more already love it!

Jun. 30, 2009. A mistery duo

Our third digital-only release is ready! Aquarell, the new mistery duo in the family, bring 2 awesome tracks: "La Planète Sauvage" and "Masculine". Cool grooves, dark style and fat beats are to find there. This number has been already supported by artists like Anthony Collins, Martin Eyerer, Mathias Schaffhäuser, Mihalis Safras, Seph and many more. Would you dare to miss it?

Apr. 20, 2009. Marc is back

Two years and a half after Marc Marzenit's successful debut EP, Marc delivers a wicked track, "ITS Caracas", with a great Gavin Herlihy's remix. We had to wait way too long, but Marc did it again, and convinced everyone it was worth waiting for that long: Dubfire, Davide Squillace, Christian Smith, John Selway, Paul Ritch, Prompt, Martin Eyerer, Chloe, Axel Bartsch, Anthony Collins, Gabriel Ananda... did already support it. Will you miss it?

Feb. 23, 2009. New Digital Release

After our first CD, don't be scared, we haven't forgotten what we are, and that's why paradigma goes nasty again. Alex D'Elia & Nihil Young present our second "digital only" release, "No Way". OMG, don't miss to check it out! Already supported by people like Martin Eyerer, Paul Ritch, Laurent Garnier, Hernan Cattáneo, Joseph Capriati, H.O.S.H., Einmusik, Dandi & Ugo, Karotte and many more.

Jan. 16, 2009. First Paradigma CD

We are only at year's beginning, and we already have one special release out. Paradigma Musik. From The Deep. The conceptual idea of this CD belongs to Marc Marzenit showing us the hidden side of some of our usual names and of the coming ones. Moreover we are linked to them by a big artistic affinity and by a big friendship.

We warn you that many tracks in the CD can't be danced. Well, let me put in another words, not with your feet but with your mind. "If it can't be danced, it doesn't interest", think many people... So they're actually wrong! And girls love the CD!

By the way, our beloved Henry Saiz made available his huge remix of Radiohead’s ‘Reckoner’ for free download. What are you waiting for?

We say "see you soon" with our last recommendation: the new Kompakt website. Don't miss it!

Oct. 18, 2008. First Digital-Only Release

From now on, we are going to deliver some digital-only releases. We'll start with our eleventh release, and we do it kicking asses! Night in Milano is not safe with djs and producers like Luca Doobie and The Electricalz.

Also, they want to share with us two hot dj sets! Donwload both of them for free: Luca Doobie dj set and The Electricalz dj set.

Oct. 9, 2008. The emotional balance in relationships is complex

For the tenth release from Paradigma Musik, we thought that we should do something special, and so, we bring to all of you our most intimate release, a limited white vinyl edition. Our Heartache E.P.

But intimate and dance-floor can work together, demonstrated by the charts and plays from artists like Hernán Cattáneo, Jori Hulkkonen, Sasha, Eric Prydz, Armin Van Buuren...

Jul. 21, 2008. Trumpets & Whistles

A little boy. Not eating ice cream. Not playing. He likes to stay still. He spies on people.

As he watches closer, he thinks of random words he doesn’t even understand. Thinks empty shells, unnecessary actions, wild animals, insecurity, confusion, ingenuity, cruelty, competition, stupidity and even a little love.

He stands up from his hiding place and finally goes to buy an ice cream, and crosses a mirror left on a sidewalk. Notices something new, something clear, hidden in his reflection.

Can you see beauty in a white hair on an eleven year old?

Stares at it for a while with a big proud smile.

...and forgets about the ice cream.

May. 24, 2008. Paradigma 008 Reviews

"Gavin Herlihy 'Okay No Disco' (Paradigma) The follow up to 'Praia Brava' on one-to-watch Spanish label 'Paradigma' sees recent Get Physical signing Gavin Herlihy deliver an off-kilter cut of sparse, wonky techno that's and interesting departure from most of his previous more organic, synth-lead tracks. Intricate beat arrangement and cascading percussion give it a wiggling, Italo-techno feel in a similar style to Lucio Aquilina or Paul Ritch's recent work. Don't overlook 'Sink of Swim' on the B-side either with it's positive looped melody which has proved a big hit with the likes of Laurent Garnier. Don't overlook 'Sink or Swim'"

Mixmag


En Paradigma Musik le están cogiendo el gusto al trance maquillado de minimal, y este 'Okay no disco' les viene de perlillas para poner al lado de los maxis del jefazo Marc Marzenit y el nuevo escudero Henry Sáiz, la flor y nata del melodismo de trazo orondo made in Spain. Gavin Herlihy, famoso ayer por escribir en Mixmag y más famoso hoy todavía por publicar hits de hora punta para clubes a la última, se ha empleado a fondo en acabar dos tracks que, si bien no inventan nada, sí echan leña al fuego del tech-house generoso y alambicado que cada día más gana terreno entre las preferencias de la plebe. Un trabajo fino y funcional, ni más ni menos, como decían Los Chichos.

GO Magazine


What you see is what you get: 'Okay No Disco' (Paradigma Musik / Kompakt) von Gavin Herlihy, geborener Ire, ehemaliger Londoner, jetzt freilich wie alle in Berlin wohnend, ist stricly no Disco, sondern minimalistischer Tech-House, der an den Rädern hübsch ausfranst und sich im Verlauf der sieben Minuten auf dem Plattenteller zu einem bunt schillernden Dancefloor-Monster entwickelt.

Dec. 6, 2007. Dear Ladies and Germs!

Paradigma being hopelessly otpimistic and indeed believing the event of the utmost importance to your lives, we have launched our newsletter. If you want to join it, just submit us your email using the subscriptions form. You will be receiving any ground-breaking news concerning Paradigma, from new releases, venues to any envious UFO attack upon our invaluable stock...

Was there ever the shadow of a doubt Paradigma wouldn't soon be back with unbeatable resolution to cast light and splendour into the recesses of new and alternative music? Paradigma's always going to be a couple of steps ahead even if we know one day we may accidentally fall off the cliff whilst the crowd behind manages to stop in time.

We're glad to inform you too Paradigma has recently been nominated to the 10th edition of the 'deejaysmag' awards for the year's most promising music label. You're strongly invited to vote for us at www.deejaymags.com, although if you don't because you prefer to take a nap but you buy our releases when you wake up, it's allright with us. We don't think Paradigma will bother sending a 'collaborator' over to sneak head horses underneath your bedsheets. You watch out in case though!

The fourth baby is born and its ready to give you an eArGaSm ala Paradigma. Three delicious, pumping, organic masterpieces which will take on a fantastic ride. Vendi & Ward showing with "A Real World" how to combine finest minimal tunes with warm melodic patterns which will go deep and wont let you go to sleep.

A great big thank you for your support of the recent paradigma 001. Our initial run of units were sold out in a week, but more copies are now available (without mistakes in their sleeves!).
Besides, you can get the digital release in Juno Download, too.
(Don't forget to check out who is going to become the next paradigma!)

Oct. 23, 2006. Released the first Paradigma

Well, The first paradigma is finally on the street! We hope you like as much as we do!
By now, you can get the digital release only in Kompakt-MP3. On the other hand, we trust in Kompakt Distribution for making the E.P. available in your favourite record shops.
We also are aware of the fact that all the slides of the records are wrong. Not only both holes are missing (!) but also the front side of the sleeve is in the back side. We are so sorry, but... On the brighter side, they will become unique collectors pieces!
