Info zu Playing in the Night (EP)

Following on from the ‘Small Disasters EP’ here is the second release from TOM And His Computer on Trentemøller’s expertly curated In My Room label and sees the Dane diving even deeper into his obsession with retro-futuristic noisy edginess - or his “commitment to fresh ideas with a clear sense of melodies” (Clash Magazine).

The ‘Small Disasters EP’ also made an impression with its music videos, especially ‘Organ’, that won more than a dozen video awards around the globe and is also nominated for the Berlin Music Video Awards 2016.

Now the new EP takes the whole adventure even a step further and features two vocal songs featuring Julie Runa from Copenhagen based band Roxy Jules. One of them is the instant earworm ‚Eighty Four‘ for which a music video is being filmed.

The opener ‘Uhhish’ is an atmospheric ambient piece - at least in the beginning - before soundscapes overlap into each other and a gritty, new wave bass finally emerges, building into a noisy reverb-filled ending.

‘Hanoi Golden Rice Hotel’ brings another dark vibe into play, mixing up horror film mood scapes with inventive melodic lines and precise drums and finally ‘Colormind’ is the fifth and last track here, and indulges TOM’s love for noise and melody in the same space - a fitting closing to an exceptional EP.

T.O.M
is a producer who started out as a teen by looping bits and pieces on his 4 track taperecorder. As a teenager he held dj residencies at some of the biggest dancehalls in Copenhagen and Scandinavia.

Now for the very first time T.O.M. and his Computer presents his very own music for a live audience. Although his music is computerbased, it may be hard to categorize just as electronic music. When performing T.O.M. mixes various pieces of electronica, lofi guitars, vocal sampels and cinematic soundscapes.
