Sounds Like Paulin launches a YouTube channel in October 2026. The channel hosts musical performances filmed and recorded at the Paulin House in Paris, among furniture designed by Pierre Paulin. Sounds Like Paulin describes itself as a cultural label, recording studio and listening space for music, design and contemporary art. You find the sessions on the Sounds Like Paulin YouTube channel.
The Sounds Like Paulin Sessions bring together emerging and established artists from different generations and scenes. Rappers, classical musicians, electronic producers, singers, jazz musicians and experimental artists work in the same house. The organisers say the furniture shapes how they meet, write, produce and perform.
Eartheater performs “Paradise Rains” from Heavenly Body: If I’m the Bottle You’re the Message, her album released in July 2026. Sega Bodega, a longtime collaborator, and the Tixier brothers join her. The brothers are French jazz musicians whose past collaborators include Stevie Wonder and Dee Dee Bridgewater. Eartheater has also worked with Shygirl and Oklou.
Season 1 includes Mora, Quatuor Zaïde, Eddy de Pretto, Tana, Ibeyi, NSDOS with Theo Croker, Blasé, François & The Atlas Mountains, and Jeune Morty with Varg, among others.
In June 2026, the house also hosted the Polaroid Foundation and photographer and filmmaker STILLZ. Over several days, the Paulin House became a photographic studio set up around the Polaroid 20x24, a large-format camera made in 1976 and used by Andy Warhol, Ansel Adams and Chuck Close. More than 250 artists and figures from creative fields sat for portraits, and each portrait is one large-format Polaroid. The project documents the creative community around Sounds Like Paulin.
The release also describes Paulin, Paulin, Paulin, an independent family project started by Maia Paulin, the designer’s wife. Alice and Benjamin Paulin now run the company, which makes every model in France and only to order.
