CPayne’s entry into music was ignited by a deep passion for Electronic Dance Music, drawing early inspiration from legendary DJs like John Digweed, Carl Cox, and Armin van Buuren and from EDM sub-genres such as Trance, Techno, Bigroom among other mainstage festival styles. This passion led him on a global pilgrimage to iconic festival cities and events including Love Parade in Berlin, Sensation in Amsterdam, Ultra Music Festival in Miami, and EDC Las Vegas, experiences that helped shape his sound and artistic vision.
While building a successful career in the North American banking sector, CPayne reached a decisive turning point in 2020, and immersed himself in electronic dance music, creating powerful, high-energy mixes driven by deep basslines while studying DJ hardware and software, music production techniques, equipment integration, and the fundamentals of mixing and mastering, laying the foundation for a professional transition from finance to full-time music and entrepreneurship.
Guided by this holistic vision, CPayne launched Deep Waves Music in Miami as a creative EDM hub encompassing a show, label, and live performance arm. Within its first months, Deep Waves Music was fully structured with a solid legal foundation, Miami studios, and the now-acclaimed Deep Waves Music SHOW™, positioning the brand as a platform for original releases, artist collaborations, clothing, and community-building in the dance music space.
As host and curator of the Deep Waves Music SHOW™, CPayne delivers a weekly hour of premier EDM, broadcast live from the Deep Waves Music™ Studios in Miami across YouTube, SoundCloud, FM/radio partners, and digital platforms. Over more than three and a half years, the show has surpassed 200 episodes, 300+ hours of music, thousands of curated tracks, over a million total streams and YouTube views, and an engaged global audience spanning more than 115 countries.
Beyond curation, CPayne is an active producer with a growing catalog of original tracks and co-productions, including highlighted collaborations with KEVU and R3SPAWN presented on main stages in Europe. He has performed at venues such as Independent–Dance in Miami, Club La Clave in Costa Rica, and at festivals like Festa Das Gaeiras in Portugal, presenting his uplifting, mainstage-ready sound while continuing to expand his international footprint.
Deep Waves Music has evolved into a global community, engaging more than 600 DJs, producers, record labels, and production teams worldwide who entrust their music to CPayne and the DWM platform. With a combined social media following in the tens of thousands and a catalog of over a dozen released or co-produced tracks, CPayne leverages this network to bridge everyday life and the EDM world, uniting fans and creators around a shared passion for cutting-
