Some more information about Tom:
At the age of four years Tom Cloverfield attended Classical Piano school and did more musical studies until 1988. At twenty, he left classical music, and began playing dixieland, pop and rock in several CoverBands, touring through out Germany and Switzerland. After the Tour-Years he discovered his passion for the electronic and experimental music. He wanted to create a different sound never heard before. So he started an additional career as a Solo Studio Artist. Since 2000 he did a lot of studio works, but no releases were published until 2009.
The years passed, the technology grew faster and finally he discovered his technology which gave him the sound he was all the time searching.
His first release was published in the summer of 2009, and the first Clubs played his music. He was himself never seen as a DJ in a club. He creates his music always in the studio, because his arrangements and electronic instruments (mostly software based synths) are too complex for solo live perfomances, He is often asked to play at clubs, but the time seems not ripe yet.
In the meantime some of his early tracks found its way on the first longplay album E-Talk released in December 2009. On this album you can hear 9 electro and experimental tracks, some tracks are made with really nice experimental software synthesizers, based on Reaktor and Absynth.
Sometimes you can hear some additional acoustic instruments squeezed through heavy filters.
The next Maxi releases followed in rather short sequence, some tracks are more progressive house, some tracks are very experimental, and some are chillout tunes. His lounge and chillout tunes can be found under HOT ICE PROJECT. In 2009 he founded his own label ULTRASONIC Germany.
Some tunes can be found on the recommendation list of the music download stores all over the web.
His HEATWAVE, released in the summer of 2009, can be found in the recommendations (October) and bestselling charts electro at junodownload.com, the best DJ record store 2007, 2008 and 2009. Some tracks are published exclusively here.
