Tom Tainted (DE)

Tom started DJing in the late 90s with his first club gig when he was 17, playing the opening sets for the main DJ at a house club in Heidelberg. He quickly became a regular in the local scene, holding several residencies and playing all night vinyl sets at the then famous deep club in Heidelberg. After finishing university and the closures of several venues he focused more on his „regular Job” and family but the music never really let him go.

During covid lockdowns he got back into producing and is now regularly releasing music on renowned labels like Essentializm (Raz Nitzan Music), Deep Woods, Krafted, Sounds of Meow, Blanco Y Negro as well as his own label Red Trail Music.

His music aired on Radio Stations such as Kiss FM UK and radio sunshine live and got supported by various international DJs like Paul van Dyk, Ferry Corsten, Hel:sløwed and Prety Pink. Tom also hosts the monthly Red Trail Radio show on Data Transmission Radio, London.

His sound is a unique blend of progressive house, breaks and melodic techno, drawing inspiration from a diverse range of influences, a vibe that is melodic, intense and driving.
