Thomas Gold

Frank Thomas Knebel-Janssen (born August 9, 1981), better known by his stage name Thomas Gold, is a German DJ and producer. His first productions were trance-based, which eventually evolved into progressive house and tech house in recent times. He was ranked at number 82 in the Top 100 DJs survey conducted by DJ Magazine in 2012. Biography When Thomas was seven years old, he learned to play the electronic organ, and his interest in digital synthesizers and his passion for music emerged. At the age of 15 he bought his first piece, a synthesizer Yamaha DX-11. Several international labels have signed or released music by Gold, including CR2 (UK), Ministry of Sound (UK and Australia), Positiva (UK), Nero / Joia (Sweden), Vendetta (Spain), Cyber and Scorpio (France), Time (Italy), Universal (USA), Egoiste (Switzerland). His 2008 remixed version of the classic "Silence" by the group Delerium was successful on the Beatport download list and won the coveted Beatport Music for Best Progressive House Song. This success then resulted in singles such as "Don't You Want Me", "Everybody Be Somebody", and "Losing My Religion".
