Read Full Bio ↴“Breakthrough DJ / Producer 2010: Thomas Gold" Axwell in DJ Mag 2010
“Rising Star 2010” Beatport 2010
The changing pace at which Thomas Gold’s year has taken shape has been literally breathtaking for the Berlin based artist. Not surprising then that Thomas was quickly snapped up by mammoth recording imprint Toolroom Records, who invited him to join their thoroughbred team of talent; as both a recording artist and resident DJ for their infamous ‘Toolroom Knights’ events alongside the likes of Fedde le Grand and Mark Knight. This strong start hasn’t gone unnoticed on the dancefloor either. 24 months on from breaking through into the international spotlight Thomas has nestled himself into the CD wallets of such luminaries as Axwell, Sebastian Ingrosso, Tiësto, David Guetta, Chuckie, John Dahlbäck and Sander van Doorn, whilst discovering equal support at club level by regularly chalking headlining slots at prestigious venues like Pacha, Privilege and Ministry of Sound.
His year has continued to prevail with similar successes as recent productions like his smash EP ‘Work That / Kananga’ on Toolroom led the download charts for a handful of weeks, before being followed by his collaboration with house supremo Fatboy Slim. Titled ‘Star 69’, the track rapidly ascended the Beatport progressive house chart to claim the #4 spot. His next release saw him teaming up with Italy’s Alex Kenji and resulted in ‘What’s Up’, which released through the legendary Spinnin’ records went onto pick up genre crossing support from the likes of Marco V, Bingo Players, Riley & Durrant, Tocadisco and Robbie Rivera.
Recent months have seen Thomas leading a sleepless existence through a busy production schedule and gruelling tour diary that so far has taken in Brazil, Mexico, Argentina, Japan, India, Dubai, Russia, Canada, America and a host of destinations across Europe. This purple patch in his career has seen some of Thomas’ biggest standout releases and projects come to the fore. Such has been the impression of his music of late that many of his recent productions have found themselves being snapped up by the artist labels of Swedish House Mafia’s Steve Angello (SIZE) and Axwell (Axtone). Australia’s leading house star Dirty South also signed Thomas’ new single ‘Areena’, a collaboration with David Tort and David Gausa, to his Phazing Recordings imprint. However, it is perhaps his third release on Toolroom Records that is causing the most stir among his fans. With a familiar cymbal and snare drum combination creating an hypnotic marching beat, ‘Marsch Marsch’ is an unusual yet arresting track that delivers with a killer piano melody – which explains the reason it has been one of the biggest tracks bubbling in his sets for the last few weeks.
On reflection all this recent success had to stem from somewhere and that point of origin was when Thomas was a curious 7 years old. Taught to play the electronic organ as a child, Thomas soon found interest in digital synthesizers and from here his passion soared. Aged 15 he purchased his first ever piece of studio equipment – a Yamaha DX-11 synthesizer – and has not looked back since.
In three short years Thomas Gold has built an impressive back catalogue. On top of a solo releases, his remix work has been so successful that today his credits read like the who’s who of the global dance scene with names such as David Guetta, Fergie feat. LMFAO, David Tort, Norman Doray, Erick Morillo and Paul van Dyk to his repertoire.
Soaring high with his music has led to further more successes with Beatport; who in 2009 nominated him in their ‘Best Progressive House artist’ category. He eventually went on to win the coveted award for ‘Best Progressive House Track’ for his remix of Delerium ‘Silence’.
The magic you hear in his productions is just as evident in his DJ sets. With a sound that is just at home in the big room environment of a festival or dance arena, as it is in the more personal surroundings of club lands grittier underground settings. It is little wonder then that Thomas’ diary is one that has already taken in many of the world’s best venues such from Pacha Buenos Aires and Cameo Miami to Space and current World #1 club Sankeys in Manchester, whilst touring has seen him circumnavigated the planet with rousing appearances throughout Asia, Australia, Europe, Middle East and North and South America.
Thomas Gold is definitely THE name to look out for in 2011!

Thomas Gold Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I throws me back to 1999
Our hearts are beating like a rollercoaster ride
Yeah, this might sound crazy, but girl
I'll love you with the lights on
I'll take it to the break, break of dawn
I'll love you to the right song
So intoxicated, so high
In a helicopter, high for my love
It's written in the sky
You're falling 'cause it feels so good, feels so good
Is this real love?
Is this real love?
Is this real love?
Yeah, this might sound crazy, but girl
Is this real love?
The bass was pumpin', we were dancing out of time
Two bodies moving, left the world behind
I grab your hand, now it's just you and I
Yeah, this might sound crazy, but girl
I'll love you with the lights on
I'll take it to the break, break of dawn
I'll love you to the right song
Now you're feeling like you made it
So intoxicated, so high
In a helicopter, high for my love
It's written in the sky
You're falling 'cause it feels so good, feels so good
(Is this real love?)
(Is this real love?)
(Is this real love?)
Yeah, this might sound crazy, but girl
Is this real love?
Is this real love?

Yeah, this might sound crazy, but girl
Is this real love? (I'll love you with the lights on)
Is this real love? (I'll take it to the break, break of dawn)
Is this real love?
Yeah, this might sound crazy, but girl
Is this real love?
