Paul's DJing
I've attend a few events where Paul has made an appearence and was impressed with the extend of music he not only owns, but is willing to play. Many club Dj's won't play requests and run from a set
list. Well worth catching a night when Paul's manning the decks.

OnlyAfterDark DJ
OnlyAfterDark is such a great dj, he really knows his stuff and he's always happy to play requests. I'd really recommend him!

An excellent choice
Having promoted, DJ'd and run indie club nights @ The Ritzy Tottenham, Woody's Ladroke Grove, Cellar Bar Heaven and private club nights in Notting hill between 1985-95 I know a good DJ when I come
across one. I wouldn't hesitate in booking Paul for my party or any club night as he has a great intuition for what people want. I am a regular listener to his Only After Dark Radio Show which is a
must for music lovers

Always such a wonderful playlist!

Night Ryder
Time with Paul is a musical education. As his brother I should know. His broad eclectic taste is reflected in his substantial playlist, mixed to effect like an audio kaleidoscope, delivering a
quality sound that can get get people up dancing and stay dancing. After all, no one wants a night standing in the shaddows when the joint is jumpin'.

Only After Dark Radio
Paul's Only After Dark Radio shows are a great mix of classic tracks and rarities. Paul's knowledge is excellent, and has opened my eyes and ears to some great music of the period, I would never have
been aware of. Cheers Paul:))

Passionate
Paul is passionate about music in almost every genre. He lives and breathes music as do I.
I've been fortunate to attend most of his club nights as well as being a regular contributor to Only After Dark Radio since the start.
Paul is exceptionally professional and puts many hours work into creating his playlists as well as having an "ear" for what follows naturally. He is a natural.

Only After Dark Radio
Paul's hard work developing this music loving community is pretty remarkable.
using this medium and his vast music knowledge he has provided fantastic entertainment for me and thousands across the globe - quite an achievement in such a short space of time.
long may he and OADR continue....

Love it!
Thanks for all the blasts from the past - especially the really rare tracks. Keep up the good work. Looking forward to more brilliant postings in the New Year. Cheers! x

Paul "The Professor" Ryder has made a big impact on my music knowledge. More importantly he has made my feel very welcome in his group. He puts up with my love of Spandau Ballet and my American view
of New Wave music. I have had a blast and have made some great friends from across the pond. I will make it over there and meet everyone someday. It is near the top of my bucket list. Thanks Paul!!!

Paul
Hi I have known Paul for about two years now and like me he loves his music.You cant go wrong by booking him for your venue he is a great guy
-
Only after dark
Paul is a hugely knowledgeable guy with a very varied appreciation of music able to cater for absolutely all tastes. I am sure you will have a great night in Paul's company DJ'ing for your party.

Mr. DJ.......
In my line of work, as a musician, promoter and agent of many high quality acts and events, it pays to be aware of others within the industry who have extensive knowledge, enthusiasm and very, very
importantly, awareness of the needs of the client. Paul has all of these skills in spades and I take him very seriously.
He is also, and I mean this as an absolute compliment, a complete multi-genre musical anorak, which for fellow obsessives like me, is wonderful to know, as it makes us realise even more than we
already knew that this most wonderful of art forms is always exciting, always evolving, and will always exist as long as people like Paul Ryder do.......

Sidmouth Late Night Shopping (Chamber of Commerce)
I was lucky to find Paul at late notice as we had been let down. He transformed the evening and several traders and voluntary organisations taking part have responded that 'it was the best ever' Late
Night. He chose a refreshing Christmas playlist avoiding the multi-repeated songs which we usually hear instore when shopping. Paul also quickly filled the spot of Master of Ceremonies, announcing
the next acts and being very accommodating when people presented a CD to play for their Act. His wonderful coloured lights played in circles and squares with some special cameo moments of children in
wonderment trying to catch the colours! All in all, a very special evening thank you to Paul. I am about to rebook him for next year!!

Late Night Shopping Sidmouth
We thought 2013 was the best night ever, but Paul surpassed himself and 5 Dec 2014 was fabulous. Do read my comments from last year - they were all surpassed this year! Paul, again, was helpful to
everyone who needed music played for their dancing or carol singing. He created a fun atmosphere and as someone e-mailed me later, it was the best ever grand community party with neighbours and
friends enjoying the whole experience. Thank you Paul X

Wedding Reception
Paul was a superb choice to act as DJ for our wedding reception. We put together a list of music lasting over 9 hours and left in Paul's very capable hands to whittle it down to 4.5 hours. Paul has a
wonderful, friendly personality and both me and my wife Debbie, ended the night knowing that along with us, all of our guests had a thoroughly enjoyable evening, helped along by Paul.
Thank you Paul from both of us xx

special magical day. Xx

Wedding day success
I would just like to say, what a fantastic night we all had last weekend at Anthony and Debbie's wedding. It truly was enjoyable and a big part of that was the DJ extraordinaire, Mr Paul Ryder, who
did an amazing job in entertaining everyone throughout the day and on through the night, ensuring we all had a great time on the dance floor with terrific tunes! Thank you Paul for a wonderful time.
I would recommend your services without hesitation to anyone.

House DJ
Paul is the house DJ at The Marine playing monthly with different themes. They have been very successful with great variety depending on the audience. The nights we have Paul have helped create an
identity with the pub and the style of music and atmosphere we are trying to promote. Paul also has a great visual backdrop with excellent lights and laser which help create a fun night.

Wedding at Double Locks
A big thank you Paul, for being the best wedding DJ we could possibly have had! We wanted a night of "real" music, from the Stones to the Cramps, minus the crap that usually gets played at these
events. The guests loved it and you still managed to get folks dancing with proper soul and ska sounds, rather than cringe-worthy stuff. Testament to your ability as a DJ and it just shows that you
don't have to totally compromise your taste to have a great wedding reception. Would recommend to anyone looking for a wedding DJ with knowledge and a sympathetic ear from the first discussions to
the last track of the night!
