Thomas Gold - Fanfare 163 (2015-08-03)

Call it the Gold standard. There’s simply no other way to measure the staggering success that Thomas Gold has achieved in dance music, consistently obliterating boundaries and defying convention with chart-topping tracks and jaw-dropping performances across the globe.

Since storming onto the scene in 2006, the German artist has emerged as one of the most widely admired producers in modern dance music. He first made his mark through a series of standout releases such top-shelf labels as Toolroom Records, Phazing, Spinnin’ Records and Size Records, while collaborating with the likes of Fatboy Slim, Dirty South and Alex Kenji. Gold’s rare ear for remixing acclaimed artists has also helped elevate his name into rarified air. His breakout remix of Adele’s “Set Fire to Rain” eclipsed 15 million YouTube views, while his reworks of industry icons like Lady Gaga, OneRepublic and Miike Snow continue to dominate dance floors worldwide.
