Tomas Ryan Bayley aka TOMB is a 31 year old DJ/producer originating from Nottingham and based In Bristol. From the ridiculously tender age of 8 years old. Tom has had a unrelenting passion for the highest quality electronic music since as far back as 1994. Fueled with new music from two of his older half brothers (One of which is the UK trance DJ/Producer Corin Bayley)who would pass on mix tapes of theirs and other big DJ's of the time to him and his brother Arran. Once he had found the music had so much raw energy and emotion, he was hooked. It's this feeling from electronic music that still resonates with him today! From these mix tapes he would hear amongst many others everything from early trance/techno by now massive names like Sven Vath and Paul Van Dyk to early progressive house pioneers like Spooky. This education in dance music continued circa 93-2000. 

It was around this time in early 2000 that he and his older Brother Arran (Who had caught the bug too) took it upon themselves to purchase two Technics SL1210 mk2's and a mixer and the rest as they say is history! The two brothers both started out DJing together playing Progressive house/Trance and Techno and going to various club nights and festivals together. Then in 2002 at the age of 15 Tom got invited to play in the main room at the now Legendary defunct Country Club near Dorchester just a mile from his parents house. After having handed in a 90 min demo to then PR and Resident DJ Meri! Unfortunately for a lot of like people in that area including himself. The club got shut down not long after and the young lad was left with no choice but to play and learn his trade at Bars and smaller clubs in what was at the time his local town of Yeovil! 

Fast forward the last few years however and he has been living in Bristol, trying to forge a name for himself on the local club circuit. Over the years his tastes have evolved a little and the bpm's have of course naturally dropped too. However he has still stayed true to his taste. Describing his current sound as "nearly always being melodic or containing moments of melody, but never cheesy". His styles now ranging everything from Deep house to progressive/Tech house and Techno/melodic techno! Although Tom is always constantly looking for new/future sounds. He has always been known for not being afraid to throw in a classic or two into his sets/mixes. Something of which is a feature on his Emotive Soundscapes podcasts. These shows are most of the time a reflection of what music he is really digging each month, rather than a representation of his live dj sets when he plays out! Tom is currently a resident DJ for Bristol based house and techno night From Berlin With Love and Progressive nights Origin Presents and The Prog Lab. As well as being an ambassador/DJ for Progressive/tech House label Plethora Muzik. I recent years he has played regular gigs for many other promoters. Playing at clubs including Motion and more or less every smaller club/venue in Bristol. At the same time he has been bagging key sets in London for Electronic Sessions supporting the likes of Israel's finest export Guy J and also playing at EGG!


His main Inspirations DJ wise ranges from the likes of Sasha, John Digweed, James Zabiela, Nick Warren, Hernan Cattaneo, Dave Seaman, Sven Vath, Carl Cox.. etc!

Born in the hot summer of 1979, I grew up in the center of The Netherlands. At the age of 12 I discovered the wonderful new genre of House music. Still a schoolboy, I used all my pocket money to buy cassette tapes of famous Dutch house compilations like Move The House, Turn up the Bass & House Party. In the following years several new subgenres emerged, in which the melodic ones were my favourites. That means lots of Eurodance, and instead of the popular Dutch Hardcore, I chose for German Rave and Hardtrance. That combination of powerful beats with lots of melodies was golden and formed my music taste.

Some years through genres like Dream House, Club Trance and the famous Pizzicato house followed and the first Trancemaster! CD’s were collected. And then the year 1999 came, I discovered a strange imported English mix compilation called Gatecrasher:Wet
It contained a wonderful combination of trance tracks from all over Europe. At that moment I started to save some money for buying my first turntables. When I bought my first 2 belt drive turntables and a basic mixer a new world opened. The world was far less international so it was quit a challenge to get those gems from abroad. In 2005 this trance addiction was expanded with producing my own tracks with the then brand new FruityLoops software. Exploring all ranges of trance music my production portfolio is very diverse, like all the different music styles I like to play. 

Being a bedroom producer and DJ for many years my collection grew to about 2500 records ranging from deep progressive house to hardtrance. Around 2007/2008 vinyl records stopped being the main medium for electronic music and things were getting all digital. Missing the fun part of buying and spinning part of records, together with a changing sound of trance made that spinning music was not on my highest rank anymore. But although not too active, this was the period that I discovered harmonic mixing, which still forms the base of all my mixes. By combining the harmonies of different tracks, my mixes are full of homemade mash-ups and by using the harmonic mixing wheel I try to make one continuous journey through harmonies.

In these years my turntables and record collection were gathering dust. I still followed the trance scene sideways and made an occasional mix (with Virtual DJ) or track. In 2018 something changed. I decided to go to a trance festival again after 15 years, so me and my friends made a trip to Luminosity Beach Festival 2018. I was overwhelmed by the fact that this scene was so much more alive than I expected. Especially the fact that there were so many DJ’s that still played those classic trance tracks. Inspired by those sets I decided to upload some of my older mixes on my SoundCloud page for all those classic trance lovers. 

In the past 4 years I created my own themes for my mixes, some modern ones but lots of classics. For example my yearbooks in honour to those golden years of trance. My Exhibition of Classic Trance does reflect my personal taste the best, those mixes are always more than 3 hours to ensure a complete journey through different styles of trance. My personal favourite series is Hidden Treasures, which completely consists of all those hidden gems from back in the days. Of course I love the obvious classics, just as much as all trance lovers, but mixes with only the well-known classics are sometimes a bit exchangeable. With these hidden treasures I can let people discover tracks they never heard of and be more unique. It’s my pleasure to provide you all with a broad range of trance music.

Back to my own name - Old Skool Oakenfold fan  - I play trance yet apparently thats now called prog/etho/house but the 140 stuff mainly blows
