Started out playing the drums for several years it was no surprise Tom soon started listening to rhythmic and tribal based techno.

Meanwhile, he began organizing small techno events in his hometown and got in contact with Sander May. 

They joined forces in 2005 and together they build the event “Complexed” into a successful event where they were DJ’ing as residents. Soon they conquered the Leiden area with their deep and funky DJ-sets and got noticed by other promoters. Their journey through numerous events throughout the country saw them performing together at places like; Doornroosje, Tivoli, Studio 80, Patronaat, Gelredome, Simplon, Woodstock, Hotel Arena, Whoosah, Off-Corso and Catwalk.

Because of the success of “Complexed”, it was time for Sander and Tom to start a new concept in the bigger LVC under the name “This is Complexed”. At the same time they started doing festival events in the Leiden city centre during the yearly Queensday and Leiden’s Ontzet dates under the name KLIKK. Nowadays, all of their events are under the KLIKK flag and has seen many National and International artists performing alongside Sander and Tom.

Also, his collaboration with Bas van der Laken under the “Formel” moniker is getting a release in the latter part of this year. Where “Formel” is a more housey approach, Tom focuses on the deep and melodic side of techno and house for his solo productions.
