Bass Down Low x WOW present: DJ Paypal
Bass Down Low brings DJ Paypal to Philly for a rare appearance. Renowned for their warped edits and boundary-pushing tracks, DJ Paypal is a central force in global footwork and juke. A core member of Chicago’s Teklife crew (founded by DJ Rashad & DJ Spinn), Paypal’s output spans Brainfeeder, Hyperdub, Planet Mu, and their own Mall Music Inc—home to peers like DJ Orange Julius and DJ Mastercard. Their footwork fuses hyperspeed percussion with soul, disco, and hi-def club pressure—chaotic, psychedelic, and always moving. Paypal’s live sets have touched stages from Low End Theory to Roskilde to MoMA PS1. Philly, now it’s your turn. Joining them is Baltimore’s Missy, whose fast-paced, club-rooted style threads the needle between raw edits and deep blends. One of the East Coast’s most exciting new selectors. Presented by Bass Down Low.
