At a time when everything seems to demand we pick a side, a scene, or a style, DJ Physical claims the right to ambiguity. In a world obsessed with genre purity and clear-cut identities, he turns mixing into a manifesto and contradiction into an aesthetic. While electronic music splits into factions, he chooses to unite, blur boundaries, and restore meaning to real freedom.
“Pernel”, his second first name, chosen by his brother at birth in reference to the film Menace II Society is an intimate detail that becomes the starting point of a broader narrative: the one of an artist torn between what he inherits and what he chooses to embody. Between his Alpine roots and the urban culture that shaped him, DJ Physical draws a singular line at the crossroads of two worlds that seem to oppose each other, yet find natural reconciliation in him.
This tension fuels all his music. Pernel moves through styles: breakbeat, garage, house, grime and jersey club never feeling the need to justify himself. For DJ Physical, blurring boundaries is not a provocation; it’s a necessity. In an electronic scene often trapped in its own boarders, he considers freedom as his only consistency. No purism, no posturing, just an urgency to create instinctive, sincere music that speaks of identity as much as it does of the body.
In Pernel, every contrast becomes language, every blend a truth. DJ Physical transforms his contradictions into music, making it a mirror for those who refuse to choose between their worlds.
