Scuba

Since 2003 Paul Rose – aka Scuba – has released productions covering the entire spectrum of electronic music, revelling in the creative process, and bucking expectations. He’s released five critically acclaimed artist albums and crafted mixes for the DJ Kicks, fabric, and Ostgut Ton, winning a DJ Mag Best Live Act award along the way. He remains one of the industry’s most astute tastemakers. Celebrating 20 years in 2023, his Hotflush imprint has shaped the direction of the electronic landscape, breaking the careers of artists such as Mount Kimbie and George FitzGerald. He also headed a 5-year run of the seminal ‘SUB:STANCE’ parties at the world's best club, Berghain, immersing many of the key figures of the UK-centric dubstep movement of the 2000s directly in the core of Berlin’s techno scene. Today he continues to chase absorbing creative projects from across the musical spectrum. Beyond his acclaimed solo productions as Scuba, since the pandemic Rose has written his debut film OST; re-birthed his SCB alias with a focus squarely on techno; and launched the hugely successful 'Not A Diving Podcast', now re-launched as 'Music Not Diving'. Most recently he released two classic hardcore-influenced mixtapes entitled Digital Underground and D:U:2, and dropped a single on Sasha's Last Night On Earth label.
