Elgin, North East Scotland
Laundry Talk is Paul Chambers, from Elgin, North East Scotland. Behind the decks since 1998, and making music for nearly as long — deep, hypnotic, vocal-heavy and mostly strange, almost none of which anyone ever heard.
That wasn't shyness, and it wasn't a plan. It was just what the work was: made at night, for himself, built for the long warm-up rather than the peak-time drop.
The first one to leave the studio is called “Understand”. It's built around a voice recorded on a pre-dawn hike up Mount Batur in Bali — the kind of thing you capture without knowing what it's for.
It's signed to Keep Thinking. John Digweed and Sasha have played it at Tofte Manor, and Digweed played it on Transitions. It came out on 21 August 2026.
Releases, mixes and guest spots all come from the same place. Nothing here is polished for the sake of it. If it sounds like it was made by a person in a studio, that's because it was.
About Laundry Talk
His studio in Elgin, and recordings nobody’s heard. Unapologetically strange.
That changed with “Understand”.
