At 6 feet 6 inches, Tall Paul Newman is
certainly a DJ who fully deserves his moniker. His DJing
career began at the age of 16 in 1987 when he was allowed
behind the decks at his father's club, Turnmills in
Farringdon, London. By 1990, his considerable skill was
self-evident and he became resident at the ground-breaking gay
night, Trade. Newman released his first recording, "Love
Rush", as a white label for the club;ss namesake label.
Christened "Tall" Paul by Hooj Choons' Red Jerry, they
recorded "Rock Da House" together. Re-released in 1997 on VC
Recordings, the track reached number 11 in the UK singles
chart. His increasingly high profile as an in-demand club DJ
has led to remix work for artists including New Order, Stone
Roses, East 17, Erasure, Human League, Marc Almond, Wildchild,
Dario G., Duran Duran, Nalin And Kane, Blondie Bizarre Inc.
and more. Newman has also mixed many compilation albums,
including those for the labels Fantazia, Cream (Anthems
with Seb Fontaine) and the Ministry Of Sound (Dance
Nation Six with Brandon Block), as well as the six full
lengths (and four 12” singles) he has released on Moonshine.
He tours as a DJ in countries such as the USA
and Japan but still makes regular appearances at UK clubs such
as The Gallery, Gatecrasher, Godskitchen, Progress,
Sundissential, Cream, and The Sanctuary. His DJing style is
versatile: he can move from the more obviously "up-front"
vocal house, through hard house, to trance-inflected material.
He has also had success with his own singles, especially as
Camisra, with "Let Me Show You", a massive club hit that
entered the national UK charts at number 5, and "Feel The
Beat". Newman remains highly popular as a DJ but his
entrepreneurial skills have led to the building of his own
studio and the establishing of a record label, Duty Free
Recordings. The single releases on the label, including those
by Robbie Rivera and Radical Playaz, have been well received
by the critics. Newman also hosts a show on UK radio station
Kiss 100 FM with Seb Fontaine. His achievements were
officially recognized in 1998 when he won the Ericsson Muzik
Dance Award for Best UK DJ.
