Founded in 2008, Test Pressing is renowned for preserving the archive of underground sound and being a solid representative for club culture, in general, Test Pressing and Apiento have made inroads in the industry. Paul explains how he first got into music.

“I ended up getting into electro when I was like 10 or 11 - mid 80s basically. It was kind of the thing to do in the suburbs I guess. Bit of break dancing and back spinning to Tour de France by Kraftwerk.”
