TJ Hooker - Burned (dark techno)

http://www.zshare.net/audio/57941843f103e819/


Tom's (TJ Hooker) love of music was obvious at a very young age; while his peers were busy playing Zelda, Tom was playing Frank Zappa records on his dad's Technics sl-1000. TJ's passion for music lead him to the drum kit, where his early rock and jazz influences were on display full throttle. Tom's desire to expand his musical horizons introduced him to hip-hop and Graffiti, which consumed him until the day he got his copy of the seminal electronic album by Daft Punk,
"Homework". Things were never the same after that...

Tom started to hit the scene hard in 1999, enjoying a wide spectrum of electronic genres at various events. TJ had yet to find a sound that really moved him, that was until he discovered the club nights "Overproof" and "Deepen" at the Lotus Sound Lounge in 2003. Tom's love of all things house was born, and it was at these nights where he developed an ear for quality electronic music.

By 2006, Tom was getting discouraged by VanCity's electronic music scene; it seemed harder and harder to find the underground house sound that he loved. In response to this growing frustration Tom picked up his first set of turntables and decided to himself become a purveyor of that sound. With some well-timed guidance from local house crusaders Jay Tripwire and Tom Thomas behind him, TJ has undertaken the valiant mission of delivering proper house music to the masses. His sound can only be described as driving dance music. Tom is known to dish out bangin tech house to trippy techno tracks. If its dark and twisted, TJ is all over it. His style is more suited for the club than the couch, while at the same time containing enough substance to keep the discerning house heads happy.

It seems that the party people still love their house music, as Tom's approach to electronic has been extremely well received, as is shown by the impressive list of venues and events he has been booked to play in Vancouver since 2007. The Lotus Sound Lounge, Anza Club, Gorgomish, Red Room, Waldorf, Pop Opera, and Majestic are just a few notables on TJs already loaded resume, having played alongside such well known and respected peers as the Lawnchair Generals, Jay Tripwire, Luke Mckeehan, Tom Thomas, Mieka Du Franx, and Nicky Delgado to name but a few. Tom also holds down two weekly residencies in VanCity, Thursday nights at Mint and a much coveted spot at Believe Saturday nights at the Red Room, where his sounds destroy the 400+ party people on the dance floor in the main room on the regular. Tom is a veteran of the infamous Hollywood Fridays, Bounce, and Lotus Long Weekend party's. If that wasn't enough, he is now a member of Vancouver most underground crews "Subsoil"

TJ's unique mix of worth the wait as the results are impressive. Purposeful programming accompanied by pinpoint mixing and tastemaking track selection are what to expect from one of Tom's sets, showcasing bass driven underground grooves that will get any dancefloor moving."
