I called my manager and eventually they let me play. After an hour the owner came back and said, right, I want you to be one of my residents.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rather than flying back to London, Tom decided to remain on the island for the duration of the summer. The weekly slot at Blue Marlin was a start, but the money wasn\u2019t enough to live on. \u201cI\u2019d just won the Best DJ in London Award twice,\u201d Tom explains. \u201cI had some good connections and luckily people gave me a shot. Jason Bull and Nick Reid from Hotel Es Vive helped me out. And J\u00fcrgen Bushe from Ibiza Style Magazine agreed to interview me when I was trying to make a name for myself. After the interview, J\u00fcrgen gave me the chance to play on Ibiza Global Radio. We got some good feedback and I\u2019ve been doing the show ever since.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When Ocean Beach opened in 2012, Tom found yet another outlet for his diverse dancefloor sound. \u201cThese days, I\u2019m working six days a week at Ocean Beach as their Musical Director,\u201d Tom continues. \u201cIt\u2019s not necessarily all house music there. Last Thursday, for instance, I didn\u2019t play a single house track. I played reggae, garage and hip-hop, whereas I might play minimal techno for five hours at Blue Marlin.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This summer, Tom is also directing the musical output at STK, the chic new steakhouse located within the walls of the Corso Hotel &amp; Spa in Marina Botafoch. \u201cI book the DJs and play there twice a week.\u201d Tom says. \u201cThe idea is to get people dancing on the tables. The other night I started playing Bill Withers and Marvin Gaye. When it got a bit busier I dropped Unlimited Touch and Earth, Wind &amp; Fire. It\u2019s really eclectic, very cool and very different.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>One of reasons why Tom has such a diverse taste in music is his father, who worked in the music industry for 35 years. \u201cMy dad was a soul boy, a reggae boy,\u201d Tom explains. \u201cHe\u2019s sadly passed away now, but he worked at Warner Bros., Universal, and he also had his own label. He was one of the best A&amp;R men around. He discovered UB40. The best advice he ever gave me was never to play a record unless it made the hairs on the back of my neck stand on end. I\u2019m also very lucky because my dad left me all his vinyl when he passed away. I\u2019m still playing his dub reggae 7-inches now!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":22364,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[55],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13378","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-music"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
