Bio

With over 15 years of experience in the recording industry, Paul has worked with a wide range of artists, from up-and-coming indie acts to some of the biggest names in pop, rock and hip-hop. Rihanna, Ed Sheeran, Little Mix, Lewis Capaldi, Ella Henderson, Kid Cudi, Will.i.am, Jessie J and many more have trusted Paul to help deliver their artistic vision.

Paul’s journey into music began at an early age when he started playing in bands around Essex before discovering a passion for the technical side of music when he was given a Tascam PortaStudio 4-track recorder. After completing a degree in Creative Music Technology at the University of Hull, Paul interned at a variety of studios before landing a job at Metropolis, initially as a runner, before working through the ranks to eventually become Chief Engineer in 2018.

Since joining Metropolis, Paul has worked on countless albums, singles, and EPs, and has become known for his calm demeanour and ability to bring the artist’s vision to life.

Paul’s approach to mixing is characterised by his attention to detail, his ability to bring out the best in each element of a mix, and his commitment to creating a dynamic and cohesive sound. He believes that every song has a unique story to tell and that his role as a mix engineer is to help bring that story to life and serve the song.
