Dr. Zeus is the stage name of Baljit Singh Padam, who is a Birmingham[1] based music producer.
Career
Dr. Zeus began his career in 1999 where he was signed to the Envy music label based in Birmingham where he produced Pure Garage - Sue My Ass by the Punjabi singer, Balwinder Singh Safri, from the band Safri Boyz. He had two songs on this album, which were "Sahiba Bani Prawa Di" and "Par Langa De Veh". A year later, he went on to produce his second complete album Deathjamm 4.5. This album is a part of the series Deathjamm Collections from the early 90's. On the album he had a pure Punjabi great similar to Sabar Koti featuring on the main track "Sajno Belio".[citation needed]. He then released his debut solo album "The High Life" in 2001, on the Envy music label. This album featured the vocals of Amar Arshi singing "Gwandian Da Dhol". Dr. Zeus then released Unda Da Influence in 2003. Dr. Zeus released his third album, The Original Edit in 2005 with Lehmber Hussainpuri singing vocals. Dr. Zeus then released his remix album of greatest hits entitled The Street Remixes in 2006. In 2008 Dr. Zeus released an album titled Back Unda Da Influence. The song named Sat Sri Akaal hit No.1 on the BBC Asian Network Charts. Dr. Zeus stated on a BBC Asian Network interview that Back Unda Da Influence was recorded exclusively at his own studio (BFK Studio). This will hopefully stop all the people claiming that they produced all of Zeus' music. In January 2011, Manpreet Sandhu's album "The Spirit" was released with music by Dr. Zeus.
