Mobile DJing:
From the age of
15 in 1999, DJ Small Paul has built a professional sound and
lighting rig. From the small gigs he used to get while still at
school to now the big residencies and mobile bookings he gets
today. He has gained valuable experience through regular work
all over the country, from the New Forest to Brighton and as far
north as Reading & Leicester. From birthdays to weddings to
shows such as Gosport Ice Show, South Coast Idol, SNAP dance
nights and special events like RAF Benson’s (Reading) leaving
“Las Vegas” Ball, he has the ability to adapt to the exact
specifications of each event, be it making people dance or
relax.

Mood-Eaze
(Formerly “Sidewalk”) nightclub:
What started as a ‘stand-by’ residency has turned into Paul
having full control of events on a Friday night. He planned and
organised special events and acts for the nightclub. So far to
much success and as a result has been recognised for his talents
and hard working dedication through promotion of events. He is
now the resident for their Thursday "All inclusive" nights.
SP Promotions (Small Paul Promotions):
The
event promotion and planning has inspired Paul to continue
outside of the club in his own ventures including on of the
south coasts finest Drum and Bass events “Rinsed”, underground
dance event “Battle Arena” in Portsmouth, Gosport’s first ever
FOAM party and not to mention Britain's first ever Drum n Bass
FOAM party! SP Promotions to date has found new talent and local
skilled acts many opportunities to play and get noticed, over 30
acts from Hampshire have been given the opportunity to get
discovered and many have since moved on to greater things. SP
Promotions now also includes an agency for over 20 local artists
to cater for many different types of events. The event
management experience gained has allowed Paul to offer a lot
more service to his customers. Full event planning & management
possibilities have arisen on many occasions and through his
networking and contact he is able to offer a high quality
service at a very reasonable price.

highest level in amateur ice skating). I am entering the British
Adult National Championships this year so fingers crossed! I
also recently entered the "Ice Star" show, part of ITV's Dancing
On Ice. Me and my mate Andy Way did a comedy routine but
unfortunately didn't get to the final 4 places available! That's
on TV throughout February and March 2009 so look out for me!
Skating is also where I met my
dance partner and fiancé Samantha, we're getting married this
year in August!
