Paul Beauchamp is a musician and sound designer from North Carolina, now based in Turin, Italy where he works out of O.F.F. Studio as an audio engineer. Beauchamp began his career in sound in the early 90s experimenting with field recordings and tape loops in the experimental noise group Urilia Sect with video maker and synthesizer enthusiast Joe Morgan. This period of exploration led Beauchamp to his first forays into the realm of audio recording and engineering. In 2003 Beauchamp moved to Italy where, alongside Marco Milanesio and Fabrizio Modonese Palumbo, he set up O.F.F. Studio in Turin, where he still works as one of the two resident engineers. During this time he also formed the avant-garde experimental project, Blind Cave Salamander, with Palumbo and cellist Julia Kent. This project would see many lucrative collaborations with well-known musicians such as Jochen Arbeit of Einsturzende Neubauten, Gordon Sharp (Cindytalk, This Mortal Coil), Paul Wallfisch (Swans, Love and Rockets), and Xiu Xiu. In 2010 Beachamp began his career as a solo musician working mainly in the field of minimal ambient and drone music. After a series of EP's released on the Turin-based net label Chew-Z, Beauchamp released his first full length LP in 2015, the critically acclaimed Pondfire which came out jointly on Boring Machines and Old Bicycle Records. That album was followed by Grey Mornings in 2017, again on Boring Machines. 2021 saw the release of his latest album, Needs Must When the Devil Drives (Bare Teeth Rec, Standa Dischi). Among the other illustrious musicians that Beauchamp has collaborated with, of note are: Fabrizio Modonese Palumbo (Larsen), Julia Kent (Rasputin, Anthony and the Johnsons), Jochen Arbeit (Automat, Einsturzende Neubauten), Lydia Lunch, Ben Chasny (Six Organs of Admittance), Paolo Spaccamonti, Johann Johannsson, Colin Potter and Steve Stapleton (Nurse With Wound). Beauchamp has also worked outside of the world of music and has been involved in several theater productions and workshops with writers, groups and artists such as Il Mutamento, l'Accademia dei Folli, Gruppo Nanou, Klaus Miser, Jacopo Benassi, sound artist Alessandro Sciaraffa, Kate McKintosh and has engineered audio for several documentaries in addition to installations in the fashion industry for designers Di Liborio and Lottozero as well as producing music for several documentaries and short films.
