Paul Trouble Anderson

Born in East London, grew up in childrens homes all over England. He used to dance in the pre-mixing days, and still does in the box, he would hurdle over the decks, boogie down and jump back just in time to cue the next record.

Paul started of playing at the time of the Sound System days… As well as a Dj, he was a soundman. Paul had a reggae sound that was converted into a soul sound. They called it Troublefunk and this is where he acquired his stage name “Trouble”.

Around this time, he met George Power, one of the founders of Kiss FM, who asked him to be a warm up Dj at several venues. Paul had a fresh funky sound and was playing at many clubs, to name a few, The Maize Club at Ronnie Scott’s, Bumbles and Red Box.

1985 he was asked to join Kiss and found the prospect of promoting dance music on-air an exciting one. That is when he developed his creativity and skill. To his fans, Paul has an amazing ability to make you move.

1990 Kiss went Legal and Paul took over the Saturday Prime spot 2100-2300, which continued as ‘Troubles Original Mix Show for 8 years. Then there was changes in the Stations music policies, and Paul reluctantly decided to leave.

He still delivered his sound to the fans through his night ‘The Loft’ at HQ, that run for ten years.

In 2000, Paul released a live mix album “Troubles House” on R2 Records which features an inspired collection of soulful uplifting favourites mixed with Troubles Flavour. He worked for Italian Fashion TV for 2 years.

Now in his 39th year of djing, he is still going strong, still refusing to be labelled, and is maintaining that, a House is where you live and a Garage is where you park your car.
