Read the Baardman Interview below and share it on social media.
Please tell our readers who you are and what you do?
Im Tom from Newcastle, UK and I DJ and produce music by my second name Baardman. I started producing music at about 16/17 and then started to learn to DJ about a year later. Although I've been producing music for a good few years, I only got my first EP signed to a label at the start of last year. I started producing music because after loving and being deeply interested in dance music and I wanted to be even more involved with it.
How would you describe your influences and how have they changed over the years?
I started off with loving tech house after the first time hearing it in a club. But now my taste has deepened to more dark deep melodic house and techno music. Although it love this genre, I have a broad taste and love music from all genres!
What´s new right now?
After releasing on labels from all over the place last year, my next release is going to be on a newly starting local label. The owner of the label is a friend of mine and asked me if I've got a few tracks for him and I did. The record labels called At Work Records and the release will be around April time, make sure to check it out! Gig wise, my next upcoming gig is going to be at World HQ in Newcastle on the 3rd of March for the event CUE which should be fun.
