The room was dark but for the occasional flicker and flash of colours from the screen. It illuminated everything from time to time – burgeoning with life and wonder.

He watched it all from the corner of the room, taking in the view.

He wondered what it might be like to see it as if it were brand new, in your eyes it was different to his.

For he had seen this all before, every scene, every moment.

This was his life played out on screen.

PREMIERE: Dexter - In Your Eyes [Voyage Direct]

I create Press & Promotional campaigns to promote new music releases. Predominantly 'Underground House', 'Techno', bit of 'Balearic' and my beloved 'Disco'.   I'd like to think I have a very personal approach, working with friends & contacts simply sharing great music over a chat. I choose only to work with music I adore, so you can be sure I'll be passionate when I am promoting your stuff . I strive to get your release placed, mentioned and played in all of the 'relevant' places as well as getting the 'right people' to endorse it. I'll provide you with good quality feedback to help drive the sales of your release pre launch as well as placing physical records into the hands of VIP players.  As with these things.. it's hard to predict exactly what we will achieve... but what I can promise is that I'll throw a hell of a lot passion and enthusiasm at it and that, coupled with my track record so far,  the result shouldn't be  too shabby. In my opinion it takes a lot of love, time and hard work crafting your release. Investing in what I do, pushes it into the spotlight, giving your release the best possible chance to succeed..

You can contact me on: sa@shinemusic.co.uk
Please send the music, some info on you, and your desired release date for a fast response.

Tom Trago – one of the leading lights of the Dutch electronic music underground, who defined the house and electronica sound of Amsterdam like few others. He is a globe-trotting DJ, producer, live performer and label owner who enjoys nothing more than championing both overlooked gems and fresh sounds from his own country. Tom Trago held residencies at renowned Amsterdam institutions Trouw and De School and name any prestigious festival or clubs worldwide – pretty sure he’s played there.

He once claimed that he felt a physical need to make music every day, and it’s hard to think of anyone whose immersion in music is quite as complete. Tom Trago is known for his versatility across electronic music genres, deep beats and grooves, and remixes for giants such as Depeche Mode. His genre-blurring sound and unique style have made him an influential figure in the world of electronic music.
