Thomas Nastos
Thomas Nastos (a.k.a Tommy Nash [GR]) was born in the small city of Ioannina
back in the year 1982. From a young age he took piano and guitar courses
alongside with theory courses and got involved in his father studio at the age
of 14. He worked there as sound engineer in semi-professional level gaining much
experience in recording live instruments & mixing, in the same time he was
member of one of the best alternative rock/electronica groups in his area
(called .The Bedriddens.) recording various demo tracks/cds. Their last demo cd
that was produced 5 years ago earned good reviews from various e-magazines and
fanzines and gave the opportunity for many gigs that never really happened
because the band split up due to college studies.
After that he moved to the city of Volos where he begun his studies in
mechanical engineering which he continues till now. In these years he got more
involved into the electronic scene listening to Deep,Tech & Progressive House,
Breaks and Electro tracks, but never forgetting his alternative roots. It was a
matter of time till he got into dj-ing so he started collecting records in
various styles trying to make his way through. Starting from small bars and
clubs he ended spinning on the biggest venue of his area (NOA Club) playing
mostly stuff around the House genre but also having the chance to warm up great
djs like Nick Warren, Dave Seaman, Matthew Dekay, Lexicon Avenue, Mashtronic
etc. He has also spin on major parties held on the University Areas with quite a
success.
He entered the Heinekent Thirst Competition in the year 2003 where he ended as
replacement dj in the city of Thessaloniki. After that he expanded his
activities getting involved into the best dance magazine in Greece called
.FREEZE., where he holds a position as Reviewer/Author having also his own
column introducing new and upcoming producers (named .producers@gr ID.). During
2004 he gains a residency in a new, at that time, internet radio show called
Futuregrooves (www.futuregrooves.org) mixing mostly deep & progressive house
with breakbeat elements earning great feedback. Also he got into the team of the
biggest music forum in Greece called e-Djs (www.e-djs.gr) where he took part on
several tasks (articles, reviews, interviews).
In July 2005 he joins the .Fiberlineaudio. family after being .winner with
honor. on its first remix contest, remixing .Simuck . Remember Me. (he is also
working as A & R Manager for Greece). In December 2005 he compiles and mix his
first cd Compilation for FREEZE magazine [GR] selecting tracks from the
Fiberlineaudio roster crossing thru the genres of Progressive House & Breaks.
Also his latest remix on .Andrew K & Simuck . Clouds Go By. was signed on Pure
Substance and released digital on March 2006.
