Thomas Datt

Thomas Datt has been slowly breaking through to the very forefront of the world’s trance scene for the past 3 years now. From his first remix release to his breakout hit “Alone”, he continues to produce an onslaught of the most emotive music going. He has done remixes for labels such as A State Of Trance, ID&T, Vandit, Bostich and Adjusted, lending them his trademark melodic and banging trance sound.

Born in Kolberg (Kolobrzeg), Poland in 1983, he later moved to United States in 1992. Ever since Thomas was 15 years old he knew he wanted to entertain and express himself in some form of techno. The mid-90s introduced him to all kinds of rave and eurodance electronic music as it started evolving into more and more genres. Soon after sampling each genre, he realized trance was the only thing for him. Highly inspired by the likes of Paul van Dyk, Ferry Corsten, Matt Darey, and DJ Tiësto, Thomas started setting up what would become his relatively basic home studio located in Brooklyn, New York. Spending a massive amount of time, he eventually learned how to use computer software and worked on his skill to get some kind of a record release. An opportunity knocked on the door when Trance.nu was hosting a remix competition for North Pole. Thomas eventually became one of six people awarded the release of the remix on Fundamental. And the rest is history...

Thomas was always one for quality over quantity and whilst other trance producers belted out one sound-a-like track after another, he focused on creating a catalogue he would still be happy with in 20 years' time. His first single, "2v2", was fairly successful. Once licensed to Monster Tunes and remixed by Robert Nickson, the track became a Tiësto favorite, which ended up on the “Tiësto In Concert 2” DVD. Following the success of "2v2" came "Alone" which was recently featured on Paul van Dyk's "The Politics of Dancing 2".

Closeted in Brooklyn, Thomas took it upon himself to start taking the next logical step and to learn the art of DJing, realizing that in the ever-changing world of dance music, DJing goes hand in hand with production. Thomas has been lucky enough to travel all over the United States and play at different clubs and party venues. This has resulted in him enthralling and winning crowds over with his remixes, originals and exclusive edits as they witness his fluid mixing, unique style and highly energetic performances. With every new release and every new show, Thomas gains more and more fans and popularity among the trance community around the world.
