The musical vita of Renato Tomaszio

In the pulsating nights of the 90s, Renato Tomaszio conquered the Viennese club scene as a passionate DJ. With an unmistakable sense for the pulse of the dance floor and a unique sense of musical fusion, he brought an atmosphere to shine that made the hearts of the night owls beat faster. 

His journey began with the pulsating rhythms of funk and soul, which echoed through the darkness of the clubs. As a DJ, Renato Tomaszio was always anxious to take the dancers on a journey where the soul vibrated and the music created the unforgettable moments. In the midst of the dynamic beats and harmonious melodies, he became an architect of sound, who shaped the mood and anchored the groove in people's hearts. 
The dance floors swayed under the influence of artists such as James Brown, Aretha Franklin and Earth, Wind & Fire. This era was characterized by energy, a sense of community and the undeniable magic of music.

For him, the 90s were an era of musical discoveries and experimental fusions. He celebrated the variety of sounds and expanded his horizons to turn the dance floor into a colorful collage of sounds. His sets were interspersed with energetic funk grooves, seductive soul and a touch of jazz, which formed an unmistakable musical signature. 

Over the years, his musical taste has evolved and transformed. Today, it is often found in the world of downtempo music, where time seems to stand still and the sounds float gently into the atmosphere. In his current sets, he fuses electronic elements with relaxed beats, creates space for introspective melodies and gives the listeners a break from the hectic everyday life. 

His passion for music has never weakened; rather, it has changed and evolved. As a DJ, he not only determined the beat of the dance floor, but also undertook a musical journey through the decades and genres. From the sweaty nights of the 90s to the relaxed sounds of downtempo - his journey as a musician reflects the diversity and timeless power of music.

Musikalische Vita von Renato Tomaszio

In den pulsierenden Nächten der 90er Jahre eroberte Renato Tomaszio die Wiener Clubszene als leidenschaftlicher DJ. Mit einem untrüglichen Gespür für den Puls der Tanzfläche und einem einzigartigen Sinn für musikalische Fusion brachte er eine Atmosphäre zum Erstrahlen, die die Herzen der Nachtschwärmer höher schlagen ließ.

Seine Reise begann mit den pulsierenden Rhythmen von Funk und Soul, die durch die Dunkelheit der Clubs hallten. Als DJ war Renato Tomaszio stets darauf bedacht, die Tanzenden auf eine Reise mitzunehmen, bei der die Seele vibrierte und die Musik die unvergesslichen Momente schuf. Inmitten der dynamischen Beats und harmonischen Melodien wurde er zu einem Architekten des Klangs, der die Stimmung formte und den Groove in den Herzen der Menschen verankerte.

Die 90er Jahre waren für ihm eine Ära der musikalischen Entdeckungen und experimentellen Fusionen. Er zelebrierte die Vielfalt der Sounds und erweiterte seinen Horizont, um die Tanzfläche in eine bunte Collage von Klängen zu verwandeln. Seine Sets waren durchzogen von energiegeladenen Funk-Grooves, verführerischem Soul und einem Hauch von Jazz, die eine unverwechselbare musikalische Signatur formten. Die Clubs vibrierten unter dem Einfluss von Künstlern wie James Brown, Aretha Franklin und Earth, Wind & Fire. Diese Ära war geprägt von Energie, Gemeinschaftsgefühl und der unbestreitbaren Magie der Musik. 

Mit den Jahren hat sich sein musikalischer Geschmack weiterentwickelt und transformiert. Heute findet man ihn oft in der Welt der Downtempo Musik, wo die Zeit stillzustehen scheint und die Klänge sanft in die Atmosphäre schweben. In seinen aktuellen Sets verschmelzt er elektronische Elemente mit entspannten Beats, schafft Raum für introspektive Melodien und schenkt den Hörern eine Auszeit vom hektischen Alltag.

Seine Leidenschaft für die Musik hat sich nie abgeschwächt; sie hat sich vielmehr gewandelt und weiterentwickelt. Als DJ hat er nicht nur den Takt der Tanzfläche bestimmt, sondern auch eine musikalische Reise durch die Jahrzehnte und Genres unternommen. Von den schweißtreibenden Nächten der 90er bis hin zu den entspannten Klängen des Downtempo – seine Reise als Musiker spiegelt die Vielfalt und die zeitlose Kraft der Musik wider.
