Paul Haslinger

Paul Haslinger is an Austrian-born composer and music producer based out of Los Angeles, California. In 1985, Haslinger joined the German electronic group Tangerine Dream. During his 5 years with the group, he recorded a total of 15 albums, participated in 4 international tours, and collaborated on a number of soundtracks including Miracle Mile, Near Dark, Shy People and Miramar’s Canyon Dreams directed by Jan Nickman. The soundtrack for Canyon Dreams earned Haslinger his first Grammy nomination in 1991. In 1991, Haslinger left Tangerine Dream and relocated to Los Angeles. In 1994 Haslinger released his first solo record, "Future Primitive"…

Paul Haslinger was a member of Tangerine Dream in the mid-1980s, but while that German synth band cranks along like an alien Edsel that doesn't realize its time has gone, Haslinger has been building a catalog of cutting-edge music that will take us into the next millennium. Following on the heels of his 1997 ethno-techno blowout, World Without Rules, Haslinger steps into a space-age bachelor pad for Score. Although Haslinger is a classically trained keyboardist, he doesn't let that get in the way of his sample-and-paste aesthetic.
