DJ Paypal

Renowned for their work in edit culture and contributions to Footwork and Juke, DJ Paypal is a pivotal figure in electronic music. They are part of the Chicago footwork collective Teklife, while their creative output extends across labels such as Hyperdub, Planet Mu, and their own label Mall Music Inc. As the head of the latter, DJ Paypal has outlined a new take on footwork laden with lush synthesisers and hi-definition sonics, releasing EPs, singles and bootlegs. Their proper external debut, Buy Now, explores soul and disco influences, while Sold Out on Flying Lotus’s LA-based label Brainfeeder stands as a testament to their versatility at 160 BPM.
