DJ Tom

Real Name:
Thomas Wedel
Profile:
Thomas Wedel started his DJ career in 1988 playing at small clubs and partys around his hometown Darmstadt, Germany. Still in school, Tom and his friend Thorsten Adler started experimenting in electronic dance music and landed instant clubhits with their several projects like Microbots or Psycho Drums. The breakthrough came in 1992 with Arpeggiators when they got signed by Harthouse, the young label of techno guru Sven Väth. In 1995 Tom & Thorsten founded their project AWeX and had big success with the tracks "It’s Our Future" and "Back On Plastic", which both entered the german sales charts and several international DJ charts! Since then Tom, in corporation with various friends, produced one record after the other, worked at a number of labels as A&R and consequently followed his path becoming one of the most popular festival and club DJ.
Over the past 16 years Tom produced tracks with Terry Lee Brown Jr., Timewriter,The, Mijk van Dijk , Marusha, Dr. Motte, Talla 2XLC, Boris Alexander, Jan Jacarta, Mario de Bellis, Bill Brown and Ian Oliver. Together with Andy Düx he was a resident DJ at Dorian Gray, Frankfurt Airport and responsible for the friday session @ world famous Technoclub from 1993 to 1995 and from 1998 till the closing of the club in 2000. In 1995 he changed his well known artist name "DJ Tom" into "Tom Wax" to avoid confusions due to the fact that along with the big techno hype in Germany a lot of other DJ's called themselves DJ Tom.
Since 2003 Tom hosts his own radioshow at the german radiostation YOU FM named Sounds.
