DJ T - BIOGRAPHY
For almost twenty years Thomas Koch – DJ T. – has been a vital part of the techno and house scene. In a range of different capacities: among others, Koch worked and works as a DJ, producer, promoter, club operator, publisher and journalist. In 2005, he relocated from Frankfurt to Berlin.
Like many of his fellow DJs, Koch’s career on the decks began with trial stints at private parties, back in 1985. For his first professional gigs two years later he adopted the pseudonym DJ T - a moniker he retains to this day. Throughout the 90s, he played almost all of the city’s essential clubs, including extended stopovers at Plastik, Dorian Gray and The Box. By now Frankfurt, one of Europe’s foremost epicentres of electronic dance music, has become indelibly linked with the name DJ T. In 1999 Koch, Patrik Dechent and others opened their own club Monza and, for the next five years, Koch played a decisive part in shaping its profile. Impressive names like Steve Bug, DJ Hell, Ricardo Villalobos and Tiefschwarz were among the venue’s welcome and frequent guests. Run without Koch since 2004, Monza continues to claim its place among Germany’s foremost clubbing locations; its offshoot at Space/Ibiza counts among the island’s hippest events.
In 2002, Koch and friends decided to start their own label, Get Physical Music. By now, the label’s popularity and fame has spread well beyond its Berlin base – reaching #4 (of favourite labels) in the annual Groove reader’s poll in 2004, Get Physical also claimed the coveted ‘label of the year 2005’ slot of British club bible DJ Mag. One would be hard-pressed to find a single techno/house DJ around the world who does not reach for at least one Get Physical track when things get hot.
Featuring six seasoned veterans of electronic music and club culture, the label collective also includes DJ and production team Patrick Bodmer and Philipp Jung (otherwise known as M.A.N.D.Y.) as well as producers and studio owners BookaShade (Walter Merziger, Arno Kammermeier, Peter Hayo).
