Paper Dragon

Paper Dragon keeps their sound fresh by blending sonic clarity with old-school vibes, drawing on breaks, jungle, and DnB, inspired by Bristol’s musical heritage. Their latest project, Amplified Nostalgia, delves into darker sonic realms, driven by raw breakbeats and powerful basslines. Tracks like "Holding On" and "Strawberries" gained Radio 1 support from Jeremiah Asiamah and Arielle Free, while the Kravitz remix of "Strawberries" was backed by Charlie Tee, Harriet Jaxxon, and AMA. Founding members Bruce Turner, Kris Burton, Jonathan Savage have collaborated with icons like Underworld, U2, Kate Bush, and Massive Attack. Their high-end production sets them apart in the global dance scene. With regular Spotify editorial features and BBC Radio 1 airtime, Paper Dragon’s single "Reach" was hailed as both "The Coldest Record" by Jeremiah Asiamah and one of Clara Amfo's "Hottest Records of the Week." The Kravitz remix of "Strawberries" also featured on Harriet Jaxxon's residency. Collaborating with Grafix, Axel Boy, and CLIQUES, Paper Dragon continues to captivate audiences with their blend of nostalgia-infused beats and forward-thinking production. Their BBC Introducing festival stage performance in 2023 affirmed their status as pioneers in the electronic music scene.
