About Paddy Thorne

Hailing from the sunny south coast town of Bournemouth, Paddy Thorne has played an active part in the local and national electronic scene since the early 1990's, both as a DJ and as a live performer.

Perfecting his art at now legendary Bournemouth nightclubs (Nobles, Dusk Till Dawn), he is adaptable, non-genre-specific (house, techno, electronica, drum n bass, breaks, oldskool...) and knows how to read a crowd.

From 1995 to 1998 Paddy regularly played at several well known London nightclubs (Ministry 0f Sound, Bagleys, Cloud 9, Hanover Grande, The Cross) and promoted parties through the Students Union, bridging multiple campuses to create larger sell-out events.

From 2000, Paddy worked on his own nights at Bartonka (Bournemouth, unfortunately defunct since 2002) and worked closely with the club managers to promote club brands both as a live performer and as a DJ. Some of these nights are legendary in the local scene, specifically Cut n Paste, an event based around live performance. Artist based, No rules. Paddy played keyboards and DJ'd at all events.

From 2002-2017, he worked with multiple well known local brands at The Winchester (the new name for Bartonka and a cracking club), including Terminal, Back in the Dark and Special Branch, playing deep, techy house to often crowded dancefloors. Unfortunately, The Winchester closed in 2017.

With the close of this iconic club, Paddy diversified and moved across to the festival circuit, joining forces with Shush Silent Disco and has since played Oldskool Hardcore (1990-1993) as a Shush resident at Camp Bestival, Stargazy Rum and Big Bike Bash.

Paddy currently hosts regular live online radio shows on Stream 101 Radio and Beach Radio, playing brand new house, techno and electronica from around the world. These shows usually hit the top 20 in Mixcloud charts.

Aside from DJing, since 2011 Paddy Thorne has also released his own original tunes and remixes through Alien Imprints (Alien Recordings), Loose Connection, Twisted Recordings, Kidology London, Fett Recordings, Base Music, EJ Underground (now Krafted Underground), Dekoded Records, LW Recordings and Slider Trax. He has just been signed to a very well known label (a secret at the moment) and is currently writing his second album.

Paddy Thorne has loads more stuff in the bag and after a long break (Covid!!!), he cannot wait to get back into it!
