First nominated by NERVO as their ‘Breakthrough DJ/Producer of 2012’ and later earmarked by Billboard Magazine and Mixmag as an ‘Artist to Watch’ in 2013, the young dance music star known as Tom Swoon is being hailed and hyped by many – and for good reason. At only 19 years of age Tom is already in possession of an impressive repertoire of remix projects for artists that include Steve Aoki, Kaskade, Alex Gaudino, Flo Rida, Jennifer Lopez and Ellie Goulding.
Moving beyond remixing other artists, Tom is taking the world by storm with his powerful collaboration with Amba Shepherd “Not Too Late.” One of Miami Music Week’s signature tracks, it gained major play from some of the world’s most respected DJs. Turning the tables, it’s now time for Tom to get his own work remixed. The “Not Too Late” remix package is stunning and packed with diverse interpretations of the track. The original mix covers a fantastic palette of musical colors for each remixer to choose from; a perfect combination on progressive electro paired with powerful vocals. Bassnectar and Patrick Reza retain the overall spirit of Tom’s original but possess the drop with their signature bass attack. Maor Levi goes completely apesh!t on his remix building a flowing instrumental up to one of the sickest drops you’re bound to hear this spring. It’s top level. As with the first two remixes, Josef Belani opts to make the track his own. His version is atmospheric and emotional; building throughout towards a glorious synth-heavy explosion. Sebjak rounds out the collection with his electro-techy stamp splattered over the original. It’s a solid collection not to be missed.
It’s been an inspiring ascent for the young Polish Producer/DJ who only two years ago uploaded to YouTube his first production for his friends to check out. The track was his bootleg mash-up ‘David Guetta & Avicii vs Laidback Luke – Till Sunshine’ which within days went viral and led to Tom being inundated with reactions from keen fans and DJs alike. To date, the video has amassed a gigantic 12 million views on YouTube. Since this explosive beginning Tom’s music has continued to find momentum and has earned him fans in Tiësto, Steve Angello, Avicii, David Guetta, Bob Sinclar, Arty, Michael Calfan, Jesse Voorn and Gregori Klosman, among many others.
In addition to the release of “Not Too Late” Tom has several exciting remix projects coming for Steve Aoki, Angger Dimas, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike (Dim Mak), Flo Rida (Atlantic), Tara Mcdonald (Universal), Linkin Park (Warner Bros), Gareth Emery (Garuda), Sultan + Ned Shepard & NERVO (Strictly Rhythm), Dido (RCA). The latest remix release by Tom is his cut of Bloody Beetroots’ ‘Chronicles Of A Fallen Love’ which is out on Ultra Music and has gathered major support from Avicii, David Guetta, Arty, Gareth Emery and Steve Angello to name a few. Listen to Tom’s remix here.
