“The idea behind the SUBPAC was intriguing but it surpassed my expectations when I first used it. It’s such a useful production tool both as a reference in the studio but especially on the road – I can now effectively and enjoyably mix and work in hotel rooms and tour buses without dreaming about my studio monitors back home.
There are quite a few innovative audio products out there but SUBPAC fulfills a legitimate need.”
Starting out as a drummer, Colorado producer Paul Brandt aka Paul Basic joined a band with Derek Vincent Smith (Pretty Lights) and Michal Menert in high school before they each moved on to pursue solo production work. In fall 2011 Paul released his debut EP ‘The Mirror’ on Pretty Lights Music which featured a gritty, nostalgic sound blending dusty samples, grainy synths, biting bass and thick drums – a combination that earned him an integral place within the PLM movement.
Fall 2013 will see Paul’s follow-up LP ‘Transient Horizons’ which is a more refined delivery of his dark, heavy beats and shows a unique range of mood and musicality. The album features collaborations with Pretty Lights, Michal Menert, and Trophy Beats and is available for free download at Pretty Lights Music.
