Crimson Lake

Carmine Paolino, known as Crimson Lake, embarked on his musical odyssey seeded in the womb of a professional pianist mother, blossoming early with his immersion in classical music. This profound beginning set the stage for a diverse and eclectic musical journey. As a teenager, he explored various genres through his involvement in jazz, rock, and metal bands, laying a versatile foundation for his future endeavors.

In 2012, Crimson Lake (known at the time as Ground Method) transitioned into DJing, quickly establishing himself in the electronic music scene with a residency at Love Foundation in Amsterdam. He shared stages with notables like Arthur Robert, Gabriel Ananda, Ramon Tapia, and Karl Friedrich, playing in prestigious venues including SugarFactory and Ritter Butzke.

His sets, known for their eclectic blend of UK/Classic/Funky House, Techno, Breakbeat, and now Italo Disco, Disco House and Melodic House in particular reflect his wide musical taste. Crimson Lake is celebrated for his skill in creating narrative and energy in his performances, keeping audiences engaged and dancing.

As a producer, he combines the warmth of 80s synths and disco beats with modern electronic elements, influenced by artists like Folamour and Ben Böhmer. This unique sound is both nostalgically rich and contemporarily vibrant.

Parallel to his artistic pursuits, he excels as a founder and CEO or CTO of various AI companies: Freshflow, Chat with Work, and Vettr.ai. Crimson Lake stands as a multifaceted artist and tech innovator, making significant impacts in both the realms of music and technology.
