Audio Mastering

Have you ever wondered why our podcasts sound so good, even though we mostly play rare, old and dusty vinyls? Here's the reason: all the ParisDJs.com shows are audio-mastered by our sound engineer Grant Phabao from WAV source before mp3 encoding, in 24bit whenever possible.
We still haven't found better sound knowledge and understanding. Grant Phabao's now working with roots and foundation jamaican artists who say "he's bringing back the original King Tubby sound to Jamaica with the modern twist".
You can contact us for all your mixing, restoring, audio pre-mastering, salvaging a lost reggae dubplate or ressucitating an old Iggy Pop punk 45 needs
Web Consulting

Everything changed since Napster happened. Now, every six months, a new revolution occurs in the audiovisual web world.
Blogs, podcasts, myspace... These days it's all about the music community business model: federate a community, feed it, and then make it profitable.
We've been consultants for all Internet and New Media affairs in the music business since... 1996.
Our references include consulting for AlloCiné, Universal Music, Sony Music, EMI, BMG, Wagram, Cristal Records, Ninja Tune, Tru Thoughts and many more labels, artists, audiovisual or internet companies, from the major to the smallest independant.
Being ahead of the game is what the internet is about.

Websites Production

An underground house music maestro asks for an easy website that'll help him get more international booking? One year later he's playing in Australia, Japan, Hong-Kong, Thailand, USA...
An agency asks for a relaunch of their Flashy but useless website? A few months later they're number one on Google on their favorite keywords and get connected to new clients and suppliers.
An isolated artist needs some internet communication but doesn't know where to start? We launch his blog with access to our channels of active music communities, and quickly quickly federate the some active opinion leaders in his field.

Kraked, Mind, T.I.M.E.C. and the other independant labels from the Paris DJs are a collective of publishing companies, whose goal is to develop the commercial use of the pre-existing music from their published and recorded catalogs, and of original creations from the artists of the labels (Kraked Unit, Grant Phabao, Captain Détendu, Doctor L, etc.), in association with image in every way.
Licensing

Thanks to numerous French and International contacts among special marketing directors (for compilations, premiums...) and music supervisors, Paris DJs Licensing will represent the catalogs from the Kraked, Mind, T.I.M.E.C. labels and more friends from the collective of Paris DJs.
Independant labels willing to exploit and promote their catalog on that particular market, but who don't have the sufficient internal ressources to develop this activity, are welcome of course.
Catalogs :
Comet - Tony Allen, Rare Moods, Art Konik, Randy Weston, Bumcello, Nu Tropic, Psyco On Da Bus...
Kraked - Drugs, Kraked Unit, Toumast...
Mind - Doctor L, Psyco, Broken, Not Your Frequency, Kactus Hunters...
T.I.M.E.C. - Grant Phabao, Lone Ranger, Echo Minott, Carlton Livingston, Captain Détendu, Djouls, DJ Guarana, The Joslyns, The Cheesewursts, The Mackrosoft, Steve & Larry Johnson, Professor Oz, TIMEC (the collective)...
Contact us to get access to our complete catalog
Remix

Their remixing experience include Kojak, Professor Oz, Pills, Drugs, George Clinton, Roots Manuva, Serge Gainsbourg, Max Romeo, Kinny & Horne, Jon Kennedy, Chronic Sonata, Mawglee, Deodato, Seven Dub, F.F.F., Thomas Toussaint, Tony Allen, Neneh Cherry, Ekova, Arthur H, Bang Gang, Kid Loco, Château Flight, Tommy Hools, Salif Keita, The Cinematic Orchestra, Alice Russell...

Custom Producing

At the beginning of the 2000s, our music labels started becoming audiovisual and multimedia companies, specializing in music synchronized to image (advertising, corporate films...) and original soundtracks (movies, television, radio, videogames, multimedia...).
From Hugo Boss ads, the Metropolitan Film Export theme, or Cedric Klapish movies (for example), you've heard us already.
We advise and try to push our clients in a creative way towards our catalogs and original productions, with multiple-choice solutions. We negociate the licencing rights for the use of the music and get all the necessary agrements from the publishers (the right to use the music and/or lyrics) and producers (the right to use the master recording).

Custom Programming

Full customized music programming can transform a good atmosphere into a great atmosphere, and meet your exact branded music strategy.
The right music in your store, for example, can increase the amount of time and, ultimately, money that consumers spend. The right music motivates employees, improves their concentration, and reduces absenteeism.
Music enhances and conveys your brand or product's image. This image carries over outside of your store and becomes part of your customer's lifestyle.
The right music on branded custom compilation CDs, or during special promotional events, builds customer loyalty and helps attract new customers.
We are music programming experts, plugged into diverse music scenes.
They're doing constant research and monitoring of the music industry, and of the music communities, genres, artists, labels, events and generations.
We understand how to apply music for business applications, with a sound that is distinctive, engaging and always on the cutting edge.

Blogs

Our most visited blog is djouls.com.
This old school editorial music website is filled with thousands of record reviews about music you don't hear on the radio, from Frank Zappa & Phish to Mo' Wax, Ninja Tune or more recently Tru Thoughts.
All its content is carefully indexed in Google and other search engines, so that everything listed in djouls.com nearly always comes first in the list your answers.
Besides reviews, discographies, links and more music news, you'll find in djouls.com a bi-annual "best-of" selection of the last 6 months, in all styles, referencing each year 150 essential and mostly different records.
[Don't hesitate to send us your music]
Anything Ninja Tune-related... gets indexed in ninja-obsession.net. Anything Tru Thoughts-related... we also have tru-thoughts.net. Looking for some new and legal free mp3 downloads? Check saounds.com. Want to see a simple but cool artist website? Go to rangerstyle.com and learn about Jamaican legendary deejay The Lone Ranger...
But those are just a few example of our long list of blogs, with new ones coming up each month... all connected to the others...
DJs

One of the founders of this site, Loik Dury has invited nearly everyone with taste in music on his Radio Nova shows from the mid-80's to the end of the 90's.
That might be one of the reasons we now work with a large variety of Paris DJs, from associates to friends and collaborators: Manu Boubli, Doctor L, Soul Stereo Sound System, Gilb'R, Professor Oz, Ark, Popof, Soulist, Romain BNO, Almost, Betino... the list goes on and on.
People in the UK are used to support each others' productions in order to create and keep their "scene" alive. This obvious sharing of mutual interest is now a standard of the "worldwide" scene.
That's why we try to get our own tracks playlisted, supported or played by those DJs in their sets, radio shows, etc.
P2P

The future of the music business/industry lies in the P2P technology, nothing's more obvious.
We've been studying since 1996 opportunities such as file-sharing, which is a simple system of federation, feeding and profitability of communitites. Jambands from the 80s (The Grateful Dead), the 90s (Phish, Dave Matthews Band, Medeski Martin & Wood, etc.), and the 2000s (with the Bonnaroo festival, Jam Cruise, etc.) had understood this from the ground up (they've been making millions of dollars ever since).
We're all about building our own community, linking it to other kind communities, and getting our work and art promoted by all means, as long as those means don't hurt us, our work or our art.
We feel that 128k mp3s are pure promotion, just like being played on the radio. We want our music to spread everywhere in this worldwide compressed format, that's why you'll read on our records:
"All rights of the producer and of the owner of the works reproduced reserved. Unauthorized copying, hiring, public performance and broadcasting of this record prohibited. We're cool with friendly and non-commercial file-sharing or podcasting of 128kbps MP3s."
Active Music Communities

We've been specialized in identifying active music communities since the beginning of the 90s.
Examples are numerous, like The Grateful Dead's worldwide community in the 80s, the Mo' Wax/Trip Hop community in the 90s, the power-pop community from Athens (Georgia), the Outkast/Dungeon Family/Cee-Lo community from Atlanta, le hip hop de Marseille, classic rock afficionados, the rasta/reggae community.... there are many different places to go, physically or virtually, to meet fellow music lovers.
The Ninja Tune label gathers its own community for example, with its own website, many artists websites, some mini-sites for special events, a few podcasts, a worldwide radio show...
It's a global thing which necessitates a perfect experience of new technologies, lots of organization and detailed insight on the scene concerned.
We access this community through their forum... or through our own "Everything Ninja Tune-related" blog, which is basically a complementary encyclopedia of all things the Ninja Tune community is interested to know and discuss about.
And that's just one example. After 10 years of global activism, Ninja Tune parties started to get sold out, everywhere, each time...
