emil109 (pronounced eemel one 'oh nine) is a solo British electronics/dance artist from the suburbs of east Birmingham. Real name is Paul James Barnett.

'Emil' comes from the nickname given to the World War 2 German Luftwaffe single seat, single engine fighter plane the Messerschmitt BF109E.

Although with no record label has released two full albums, one EP and a single. These are released under emil109 publishing (a non profit company).

The general sound of emil109's music is electronic & dance with experimentation of drum & bass, trance, r&ab and techno.

Originally under the moniker PJ Presents... Paul produced his first hobby album called On A Mission. This was produced using the PXD released digital audio workstation Dance Ejay. One of the first of its kind. A 2nd edition of the album was produced with a few new tracks and some remixes from the 1st edition. A third album called Mission Accomplished using aspects from Rave Ejay, Hip Hop Ejay and Dance Ejay 2 was started however never finished after Paul lost a lot of the work due to hard drive failure. The 3rd hobby album was called Spektral Inferion and produced solely in Music 2000 a DAW for the Sony Playstation video games console. A 4th hobby album called 'The Violet Rose' was also produced using a DAW released on the Sony Playstation 2 video game console called MTV Music Generator.

The first album that emil109 released was 'Fuel Injected' in 2006 the name paying homage to the BF109's fuel injected Daimler Benz engine which was the only type of its kind fitted to a fighter aircraft. The Fuel Injected album had 11 tracks and was mostly produced using Dance Ejay 7 with some aspects of MTV Music Generator as the songs 'The Violet Rose' and 'Feardrop' were taken from the hobby album The Violet Rose. No single was released from Fuel Injected how ever the song of the same name was released as a video on YouTube. The 2nd album released in 2010 was 'Live is backwards for eviL' this again had 11 tracks and was produced using the Propellerheads DAW Reason 3 and later 4. This album spawned emil109's 1st single 'Who's Calling?' which was released digital only worldwide on stores like iTunes as an EP with two other demo tracks 'Stereotypes and Unbelievers' and 'Why Can't I Just Win?' neither of which feature on the Live is Backward for eviL album. Although never released as a single the track 'Redefine' has got an accompanying video.

The second single released in 2011 was originally featured as a demo on the 'Who's Calling?' EP, although the intention was to release 'Live is backwards for eviL' it was decided instead to make a production version of 'Stereotypes and Unbelievers' this was released digitally as a single only.

The 3rd album has the working title 'Analog is Infinite/Digital is Limited' and is still currently being worked on. A 3rd single is also expected along with the 3rd video in what is a trilogy story, this is to be called 'Find A Way' and an instrumental demo was released on soundcloud.
