Thomas Coastline

Thomas Coastline, real name Tomas Malina, was born in autumn 1985.
This Kladno native joined his schooldays with Basic school 12. ZS Kladno.

After Basic school he started to study Technical school of Communication Engineering section Digital technologies – which marked his interest in dance music.

His first producer experiments Thomas dated back to his 16 years when he listened to producers like Starsplash, Megara vs Dj Lee or Tuneboy influenced by music style "eurodance".

Captured by these names he and his friends Jan Bousa alias Fuzzy and Bara Ladrova alias vocalist Sunny B based a dance project called "BASS DETECT".

Those days he noticed first bigger success with a remix of song "Samotna" made by czech dance
project Infinity.

Later in his nineteens Thomas began cooperation with well-known duo Crossryders.
Similar music feeling flew into single releases "Pandemia" and "Tears".
They were kindly accepted by the audience and brought him first dj experiences.
He got a chance to play at festival Machac, at venue Michael Burian & Friends – where dj star PVD also performed – or took a part at popular trance party "ENTRANCE".
In 2005 Thomas & Crossryders started up their week show "Numark Dance Conference" on Dance Radio which became very successful and assured Thomas of his music tendency towards the style "trance".
Year 2008 was a definitive break for Thomas's carrier concerning his production.
Label "Redux" took him under wings and set up a longtime cooperation with him.

This led into release of song "After hour" which was Thomas's 1st track that he made just on his own. Song was very warmly accepted by many famous djs etc. M.I.K.E., Suzi Solar, Daniel Kandi, Tillman Uhermacher and the quality of release was even devoted by world no.1 dj Armin Van Buuren who included the track into his radio show "A State Of Trance".

Also Thomas's 2nd single "Tears", released by "Redux" label on spring 2009 received quite positive feedback.
It was supported by names like Ferry Corsten, Pedro Del Mar, Ernesto vs Bastian or 4 Strings.

However, the biggest success came few months later with Thomas's 3rd single - "Love Victims".
Beside many others it was supported by names like Ferry Corsten, Above & Beyond, Aly & Fila, Stoneface & Terminal and it even became a "TUNE OF THE WEEK" in Sean Tyas's show "Tytanium Sessions 011".

Last but not least it worths a notice that "Love Victims" and Thomas's remix on Paul Miller's track "Impact" were filed into the mixed cd compilation "Trance Awards" and released by famous label Ministry Of Sound. We should not forget the successful release on Terminal-4 Black Hole Recordings called "Ultralight".

Definitely the best step in his career was releasing the latest tune on In Search Of Sunrise 9 Compilation mixed by Richard Durand.

Thomas's music production was also published by many radio stations - beside already mentioned Dance Radio it is e.g. TV Fun 1, Fm Kiss Jizni Cechy or from abroad Andy Moor Music Podcast, Danceradio.gr or Afterhours.fm.

In last two years Thomas also signed in mind of czech dance scene thanks to his performances where he combines a casual dj set with subtled live-act.

Up to now he played just like this by side of names like JOC, Andy Moor, Sebastian Brandt, Dj Joop, Ronski Speed, Stoneface and Terminal or Rest Point with whom he already performed twice at events in far Russia.

Thomas's sets are full of dynamic progressive and energy trance and you can periodically enjoy them on radio station Afterhours FMin mixed show - Global Electronic Music.

Towards future Thomas would like to cooperate with czech and foreign djs he's also plannin't build up his own studio and mainly work hard on his new production thanks to which he'd like to share his musical passion with another people.
