Samuel Paquet (born February 28, 1975 in Tourcoing, France), better known by his stage name, Mr. Sam, is a French techno/trance music DJ and producer.
Born in a small town listening to music from Giorgio Moroder, Klaus Schulze and Elvis Presley he began to get in touch with the outside world and later grew up with his first Depeche Mode purchase which dragged him into the synthesizer based genre of music. Electronic dance music became his aspiration, at age sixteen he decided to pursue a musical career in Belgium. By age eighteen he had begun playing at underground clubs in which he played trance which was a fast growing style at the time. He later received an invitation to play at a major club, La Rocca, in Belgium. He embarked on tours in which he played with other DJs at Portugal, Holland, Germany, Italy, Switzerland and Corsica; he met Andry Nalin and played for 12 consecutive hours with him at a concert. Moving around Europe he managed to become resident at the clubs Lagoa, La Nova, Tour & Taxi, Pacha. It was not until 1999 when he was able to master and create his own remix for Diki Records which was Circuit Boys's "The Door", with the years he improved his remixing skills. In early 2000s he met Frederic de Backer and both worked under the alias Madrid Inc. with the song My Sunday’s Love which became a success and also marked his first steps to one of the most important dates in his life when Black Hole Recordings heard the July Summer Edition of Ministry Magazine’s free covermount CD with My Sunday's Love.
You may believe in me
But I won't let you go with my soul
It's all around me
The season of red, green, and gold
The cold wind steals your memories
Fresh out of my mind
The sky will fix the broken emotion in my eyes
I find support in the air
I find support anywhere
I find support in the floods
I find support in the love
