It was in London that he embraced the DJ impetus and performed regularly in renowned clubs and events such as Fabric London, Fire, Área, Heaven, Club No65, Union, Egg, Coronet and the Summer Rites festival, but he didn't stop there. The following years witnessed Paulo traveling all over the world to delight all those who listen to him with his sets full of depth, versatility, and energy. Portugal brought him a residency at Kremlin nightclub who gave him international recognition, regularly playing alongside names like Dennis Ferrer, Steve Lawler, Mendo, Prok and Fitch, and Hobo, Alan Fitzpatrick, Anja Schneider, Dennis Cruz, Goncalo, Anna, just to name a few.🇵🇹 Seleções sonoras nascidas de um conhecimento de causa poderia ser uma forma de descrever Paulo Moreno.D Scar(r)ed For Life pjwrench A nostalgic, banter-full and analytical delve into all the TV shows, movies, games, books, and other media that scared (and scarred!) us s***less when we were children in the 90s.
