1. UK drum … Read Full Bio ↴There are 28 artists with the name Paradox listed here:
1. UK drum and bass artist Dev Pandya, who also produces under the name Alaska.
Dev Pandya is a producer from the UK who has in recent years championed a new sub-genre of drum & bass known as drumfunk, which focuses on either finding obscure breakbeats or re-sampling much used drum & bass breakbeats from their original source and transforming them into a drum & bass tempo.
Paradox is most certainly a breakbeat pioneer with a production career that has spanned well into it’s second decade. Having first released back in 1990, he’s since released over 100 singles on every leading drum’n’bass label including Reinforced, Good Looking, and Metalheadz, in addition to his own imprints such as Paradox Music, Arctic, Esotic, and Outsider. In the last couple years his collaborations with good mate Seba, and vocalist Robert Manos have solidified this man’s reputation as not only a talented breaks master, but a gifted songwriter with mass-appeal as well.
Paradox is currently involved in two collaborations with artists outside of drum and bass with The artists Herbie Hancock (who has heavily influenced much of his early work) and Carlos Santana.

Paradox Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
From the bottle
A voice upon the raw north wind
I know you
If you hear is good
I'll also know if you have sinned
You can lead me
To a warhorse
All be with you
As you reatreat
I will lead the main attack
Paradox?
No just a lie!
Paradox?
I wonder why
You will feel no joy
You will feel no pain
You'll never see the sun
You'll only feel the rain
I run with the wolves at midnight
I can stop the sun at dawn
I'm a king
A queen, a bishop
You are just my lowly pawn
I sing with the elves of Mirkwood
And I've watched the dragons die
I'm the king beneath the mountain
I'm an eagle in the sky
Paradox?
No just a lie!
Paradox?
I wonder why
You will never feel the power
You will only feel pain
You will never see the sun
Are you insane
Is it only common senses
Ooh it the truth
Tell me, is it all a lie
Do you need to have the proof
Yeah!
Tell!
You will feel no joy
You will feel no pain
You'll never see the sun
You'll only feel the rain
Gangdalf rides
Fair shadow fax
Arathorn strides far and wide
Boromir stands by
The mighty oak tree
A hundred arrows pierce his side
I have formed the highest mountains
I have hurled a storm of rock
The world equates as paradise
To you it's just a paradox
Paradox?
No just a lie!
Paradox?
I wonder why
You will never feel the power
You will only feel pain
You will never see the sun
Are you insane
Insane!
The lyrics of Paradox's song "Paradox" depict the singer as a magical being who possesses immense power and knowledge of the world. The opening lines "I'm a genie from the bottle, a voice upon the raw north wind" introduces the singer as a supernatural entity with the ability to grant wishes. The singer then claims to know the listener and whether they have sinned, implying a sense of omniscience. In the chorus, the singer describes the listener's existence, stating that they will never experience joy, only pain, and will never see the sun, only feel the rain. The singer's power is emphasized throughout the song as they describe their ability to run with wolves, stop the sun, sing with elves, and form mountains.
The song's title "Paradox" represents the contradiction between the singer's powerful existence and the listener's mundane existence. Despite the singer's immense power, the chorus suggests that the listener will only experience pain and will never see the sun. The repeated line "Paradox? No just a lie! Paradox? I wonder why" questions whether the listener's reality is a paradox or simply a lie. The bridge references characters from J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle-earth, further emphasizing the singer's fantastical nature.
