Thomas Schumacher

There are two artists with this name.

1. Thomas Schumacher has always been a non-purist DJ and producer swapping between house, techno and electro within his sets. He has chosen not to represent any style in particular, opting instead to create his own unique style.For years now he has been crossing over left and right of centre. This diversity has become his much loved character and his trademark.

Schumacher continues to be one of the leading players on the International DJ circuit, whilst remaining a cherished regular in the most important clubs throughout the world. Remixes for International Deejay Gigolos; Afrika Bambaataa; Marc Almond; Bob Sinclar; A-ha; Frankie Goes To Hollywood and Eve Mendes are all proof of the respect that he inspires from his contemporaries and of course confirms his success.

He still spends a whole lot of time in the departure lounges of airports all over the world and is honoured to travel to remote and exotic places to do his thing. In Columbia, where he played in infamous cities such as Bogota, Medellin and Cali, the tour became more like a survival trip for this not easily daunted traveller. He has performed for an overwhelming mass of 75,000 people at the Mexico City Love Parade, a crowd of 35,000 reveling enthusiasts at Germanys Mayday and he still enjoys rocking a tiny club in the back lanes of Hiroshima or Hamburg just as much.

2. Thomas Schumacher is also a twentieth-century classically-trained pianist who currently teaches piano at the Eastman School of Music.
