Thomas Schumacher kicked off 2020 with his debut EP “Crimson” for Adam Beyer’s
Drumcode label, which landed him an incredible triple Top 10 hit on Beatport, once again
cementing his reputation as one of the greats of Techno.
The Berlin-based DJ and producer makes light of his status as one of the most
championed, long standing artists in Techno. "What I love about Techno is that it
demands I question myself, reinvent myself over and over again every time.”
Schumacher is always pushing his own boundaries. "The art of being relevant," he says,
"is to forget what you know.” In his early days as an artist, he had to learn how to
physically create the sounds he heard in his head. Now, as a self taught virtuoso, the
challenge is to use his breadth and depth of musical knowledge to convey profound
emotion, "Techno is very personal to me.”
This intimacy fuels the unique vibe of a Thomas Schumacher DJ set, “I purposely steer my
sets into rough waters, I want to rough people up a bit, elevate them out of their heads
and into their bodies. I create a safe space for people to lose their minds, in the best
possible way.“
When not guiding clubbers through oceans of sound, Thomas Schumacher reaches them
via his productions on labels like Drumcode and his own label Electric Ballroom. On
Beatport Thomas’ remix of the classic “The House Of House” became his third number
one hit within the past 24 months after “Stella”- a propulsive anthem dedicated to his
daughter and “Wonder”, his collaboration with Victor Ruiz.
“The more you do, the more there is to explore, the more opportunities to invent,
connect, and imagine. I am always the one to change it up," says Thomas. "My ongoing
ambition is to connect with the people more and more deeply, every single time. I want
people to come as themselves and leave feeling more themselves. Thats why I do what I
do and why I love what I do.
