Paul Carroll



A.k.a. Dead Sound Digital Filth

Paul Carroll (aka Dead Sound) starting to show an interest in DJing in his teens, working on his scratching and turntabalism skills after gaining inspiration from 1990s hip hop and watching DMC Championship videos. Paul first gained recognition in the early to mid 2000s after winning an IDJ Magazine remix competition under the name Digital Filth, producing and DJing mostly house music, breaks and hip hop. In 2008, after long being inspired by the UK’s longest running techno night ‘Atomic Jam’ in Birmingham, Paul decided to make a change musically, moving into the world of techno under the name Dead Sound. Since starting out as Dead Sound, Paul has produced a variety of techno sub-genres including his own more broken beat and 4/4 styles by himself and also producing industrial techno alongside DJ partner Videohead. Dead Sound’s debut EP, released through Datatrace, displayed an experimental mixture of IDM, bassline orientated techno and dubstep. This earned him early support from Surgeon and introduced the name Dead Sound into the techno scene. Following on from this EP, Paul released some slower, more electronic and broken beat sounds though Acroplane Recordings. After hearing Dead Sound’s demos, Perc asked Dead Sound and his DJ partner Videohead to remix tracks for Go Hiyama and Samuli. Following the success of these remixes, The Chosen EP was released under Perc Trax. Dead Sound will be releasing his solo EP on Perc Trax, due out in December 2011/January 2012. Following the hype of the Perc Trax releases, Acroplane requested some tracks from Dead Sound and Videohead which are due out in November 2011 under the name Pench EP. Coinciding with the Perc Trax releases, Gynoid and Electrax showed an interest and Dead Sound has carried out various remixes for them and has EPs due out later in 2011/early 2012 Alongside Perc and Surgeon, Paul has gained the support of other big players in the techno scene such as Dave Clarke, Richie Hawtin, James Ruskin, Xhin, Stormfield and Warlock and notably Bas Mooy with whom a collaboration project is in the pipeline.
