Born and raised in Sydney, Australia, Paul Mikhail aka Dj Illest (Dj iLLeZt) has known to be one of the youngest producers in Australia following the footsteps of his idol Timbaland. Having a long passion for music since the tender age of 6, improvisation has always played an intriguing role for him - from playing music heard off the radio onto the Keyboard to producing original material mixing a wide variation of genres. At the age of 16, he teamed up with Melbourne rapper Protégé Aymen aka Lyrikal Lunatik to work on their first track together "You're The One" sampling the all-time famous composition by Eric Clapton "Tears In Heaven" which was a definate hit that was posted over the internet in 2005 using only a simple computer program to manage the song. After that, he went on to make another collaboration titled "Young Thug" in early 2006 using much more efficient equipment and synthesizers and decided to produce on the first Lyrikal Lunatik mixtape "Chronicles of Ace" which is currently under-go up till this day however, no set date is released for the mixtape. In Mid 2006, he went on to mix tracks with DetoX Studios rapper Cazual such as "Rap Raiderz Anthem" and "Her Life (Original Mix)". Other tracks which leaked over the internet included "Lyrikal Lunatik - We Ride Together (Unfinished)", "En Vogue - Whatever feat. Lyrikal Lunatik (Remix)" and "Alfredo Esquivel - Keep It Gangsta".
