ClaireFu Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 THE DEEP END PRESENTS TOM MIDDLETON WITH FUNKY TRANSPORT @ SNAFU // SATURDAY 31ST MAY // 10PM-3AM / TBCTom is a classically trained cellist and pianist, who grew up on a diet of breakdancing, surfing and skating, 80s electro, synth pop, hip hop, ska, goth, rock, jazzfunk, soul and boogie, early Chicago acid house, Detroit techno, New York house and garage. This might explain his eclectic tastes. Following a chance meeting with Richard James (Aphex Twin), Tom went on to learn the science of sampling and synth programming, which lead to the pair producing the "Analogue Bubblebath" EP. The success of this release lead to the creation of Tom's most famous of pseudonyms with Mark Pritchard - Jedi Knights - together their album "New School Science" inspired everyone from The Prodigy & The Chemical Brothers to Daft Punk & the Freestylers. Since this landmark release, Tom has released material as Amba, The Mod Wheel and Cosmos; held a much-coveted residency at Manumission; produced landmark Essential Mixes and, of course, established himself as one of the worlds most exciting compilation artists via diverse series such as Crazy Covers, The Trip and now legendary Sounds Of The Cosmos and global DJ slots.TOM MIDDLETONFUNKY TRANSPORT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
