Paris-Born, French-Creole artist based in Montpellier, Tom Manzarek has a vast and eclectic sound, inspired by the beat-scene of 2008-2018, English broken-beat, zouk and Jamaican dub.

In 2018 he co-creates Piñata Radio, a online plateform broadcasting artists from south of France and around the world, before starting his own label Plaisance Records in 2021.

Like in his productions, Tom Manzarek (real name Thomas Berthelot) enjoys mixing genres in his DJ sets, from electronic sounds (house, broken-beat, garage, jungle) to more organic ambiances (hi-hop, jazz, zouk, disco, riddims, etc.).

I can’t sing—but I’ve got bars, so I rap over smooth R&B instrumentals to bring that vibe to life. I miss the love, the soul, and the storytelling of ’90s hip-hop and R&B. My mission? To bring that feeling back, one track at a time.

I started as a DJ in 1983 at a small but popular club in Philadelphia called the Black Banana. I also created a visual experience that went with the music for the clubs. I have spun at the
Roxy New York and have had installations at the Limelight. I was a club kid and promoter. My inspirations come from places in New York I remember like The Spike, 12 West and The Saint, Danceteria, Area, Susanne Bartsch Events, The Roxy and Sound Factory. 
In Philadelphia the Catacombs was my place of inspiration musically. DJ David Todd, Soul, R&B, Disco, The Philly Sound and House were a major part of my music influence.

In London clubs like Heaven & Taboo in 1980s inspired me with Eurodisco & High Energy. In the mid 1980s I experienced the House & Acid House movement. I brought allot of that culture back to the States with me when i returned from living in London.

Worship Recordings was established in the summer of 1998 in Philadelphia by Rob Paine. The concept was simple at first: they just wanted to put out their own music their own way. After the first few releases it became clear that they had dropped in on a genre of house music that has slowly but surely come to fruition, now being labeled by the massive as "dub house". They knew they were not the first to use the influence of Jamaican reggae music as a foundation for their house productions, but they definitely wanted to continue to push it to new heights in both the house community and progressive reggae scene. 

What started out as an in-house production label, Worship soon started to sign like- minded artists such as: Garth, Chris Udoh, Pete Moss, Solomonic Sound, Hakan Lidbo, Jay Tripwire and Grant Dell- just to name a few. Some Worship releases are more dub than house and vice versa - but all releases are pure quality. From the music’s production quality to the legendary KLH art work and right down to the packaging, Worship Recordings is never slacking. They continue to explore new methods of using reggae and house music side by side to reach lovers of both sounds and to unite them in the dance hall as ONE.
