Tomaz

The musical roots of Tomaz sprung from his father's collection (ranging from classical over country to French chanson and pop music) to the new wave and rock scene of the 70's and 80's. This was his sole inspiration for his early dj days. It wasn’t long before he started to introduce the first house and techno tunes to those wave/rock parties and to the Belgian airwaves on local radio stations.

His obsession for music drove him towards a job at the BCM (later Enterprise) record store, where he worked selling records and guiding music-crazed lovers through the musical jungle.

In the late nineties Tomaz took it to a new level when he gave a first shot at production with Kobbe. That was the birth of several 12"es on labels like Re-Load and Future Frontier. Next in the line of production were the successful collaborations with the Filterheadz ("More House", the Latino techno hit "Los Hijos del Sol" and the major worldwide club hit "Sunshine" on Carl Cox' Intec label). "Sunshine" is one of the best selling singles on Intec.

This was the moment when Tomaz moved from the local radio stations to the Belgian national radio ‘Studio Brussel’ where he became the techno programmer for the weekly show Switch. Seven seasons down, Switch continues to bring the best electronic music to an international audience. Techno isn’t where it stops; Tomaz also programmes future hits and best classics of many genres and sub-genres of electronic music on the same show.
