Bandcamp Release Spring 2026

This track will appear on the forthcoming album ’23’ as part of the celebration of music past and present for Temple Hedz. This has many different versions, but the original was debuted on their unofficial ‘Demo EP’ from 2001. It was this track alongside ‘Transcendia’ which also featured on the same EP. This established their reputation within the music industry. Inspired and now immersed within global dance music, Paul was invited to rework a Banco de Gaia track ‘Mafich Arabi’ on the back of this momentous first Temple Hedz EP. Paul: “Eighth Paradise was a musical creation waiting to happen. Purely down to my surroundings at that time and my exciting entry into the alternative electronic sound production... What kickstarted this idea was having previously travelled to Nepal and Northern India in early 2001 and then finding myself at the mercy of the Himalayan mountain range and its vast majestic beauty. This profoundly left its mark on me, so much so, that when I eventually returned to my studio back in the UK it was then that I turned this into something tangible. Even though the meaning ‘Eighth Paradise’ has multiple meanings in Islam and Buddhism, I chose the word Paradise as an apt word to describe my feelings in the Himalayas. The number 8? It came from a track I heard whilst travelling through the mountain range. Again, it’s putting two things together and making something happen.” Coming to Bandcamp this Spring 2026
