With a repertoire of guaranteed floor fillers, J Paul Getto, can now be crowned the new minister of funk.
J Paul Getto started as a duo in 2010. A collaboration between Tony Saputo and Maurice Tamraz until early 2013. They parted ways to work on pursuing separate projects and visions. The JPG sound is a seamless plenty of contemporary techniques with classic samples of danceable beats and emotions that really attract millions. Though an experienced producer in his own right, it was a dinner party in September 2010 that set JPG off onto stardom. With the help of Maurice Tamraz and Neil Petricone of X-Mix Productions, J Paul Getto mined his own unique vein of sample-heavy Disco House. Creating an impressive body, released tracks like ‘Imma Let You Know’, ‘3000’, and ‘Paris Fried Chicken’ to rapturous receptions everywhere.
