Raised in Auckland but currently based in Melbourne, Amin PaYnE’s sound is deeply rooted in both smooth and luscious sample based hip-hop, as well as the modernity and creativity of the current beat scene. Amin PaYnE is a consistent crate digger with influences in both taste and production style as varied and complimentary as J-Dilla, Pete Rock, Kashiff, Isley Brothers, and Marvin Gaye. A mix of both vintage and fresh sounds clearly reflect the dusty and crunchy, yet soulful music. Amin was a recent memeber of the Sold out Red Bull beat suite which was peroformance with a 15 piece orchestra, 3 beatmakers, 2 turtablists and Aloe Blacc & ladi 6.

Amin created for projects such as the Gil Scott Heron and Curtis Mayfield tributes. These, as well as other projects by Amin PaYnE, have received airplay recognition and acclaim from radio stations, podcasts and blogs around the world.

Amin PaYnE has the rare ability to grasp the groove and the bounce of a track without delving into the often repetitive and cheesy formulas characterized by a lot of mainstream music. He has continuously evolved as an artist and still aims to push his sonic boundaries.
