Pacal Alejandro Bayley (born October 21, 1983), better known by his stage name DJ Pain 1, is an American record producer and DJ from Madison, Wisconsin. He has produced for artists including Young Jeezy, 50 Cent, Schoolboy Q, Ludacris, Lil Baby, Sarkodie, Rick Ross, Public Enemy, and Nipsey Hussle.
Career
SPIN Magazine referred to DJ Pain 1 as a "beat-master".[2] He placed his first major composition with Young Jeezy on the album The Recession, that went on to sell over a million copies domestically; earning Bayley an RIAA Platinum Certification.[3][4] He is also known for his music production and marketing tutorials on YouTube as well as the free sample and sound kits he releases regularly.
Since earning his platinum record, Pain 1 has composed tracks for numerous artists, earned a master's degree in the field of applied English linguistics, released both a mixtape series entitled Painkillerz as well as an instrumental series entitled Undressed Instrumentals, and frequently tours the U.S. as tour DJ for Coast 2 Coast LIVE.[5] From the year 2008 until the year 2012, Pain 1 hosted Madison's first FM Hip-Hop mixshow on WJQM (93.1 Jamz). He returned to the station in 2017 as the Tuesday night "Freakmix" mixshow DJ.
In late 2016, DJ Pain 1, along with fellow Madison native Ted Park, signed a record deal with Capitol Records/Universal Music (FR) following the viral success of the song "Hello (Who Is This)."[6]
Along with fellow producers DreamLife, Memory, and STACKTRACE, he forms the collective The Vintage Vxndals.[7]
As of February 5th, 2022, DJ Pain 1 has been RIAA certified multi-platinum after co-producing "Switch it Up" for Pooh Shiesty on his album Shiesty Season [8]
