British born, Berlin based DJ, producer and sound designer Tommy Four Seven, is at the front of the new generation of Techno artists, creating his trademark deep and uncompromising sounds for labels such as CLR and Electric Deluxe. Learning to DJ from a young age, at 17, Tommy held a 2 year residency at Fire Club, London whilst appearing at venues such as Fabric, The End and Turnmills. Producing was also an early interest and Tommy soon began releasing on David Duriez’s Brique Rouge label, before launching his own imprint called Shooting Elvis. After studying Music Technology in London, Tommy moved to Berlin and has been steadily building his catalogue of strong, moody and hypnotic releases. [Source]
