Tomska
Originally from Northern France, Tomska grew up surrounded by his father’s funk, disco and jazz records and the Belgian club tapes his brothers brought home in the late ’80s. Drawn to House music from an early age, he developed a close relationship with vinyl in 1996 and has remained loyal to the format ever since.
Discovered by Jordan Fields in 2001, he learned the foundations of music production and built his own working method around groove, rhythm, and the use of hardware — both analog and vintage digital — in the spirit of 90s-era techniques. He later contributed to numerous projects, particularly in drum programming, and regularly worked behind the scenes as a ghost producer.
In 2010, he moved to Paris and co-founded Vibes & Pepper Records with Cisco and Bryan Hervieu. From 2012 to 2014, he oversaw the label’s artistic direction, initiating or supervising every release, while Cisco handled the technical aspects and Bryan managed external relations. This period also marked the beginning of extensive gigs across Europe, including Berlin, Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Utrecht, Barcelona, Vienna, London, Liverpool, Leeds and Stockholm.
During these Paris years, he developed a close friendship with Jeremy Underground. Their shared musical affinity led them to perform together several times abroad, and Jeremy credited him on multiple occasions, both in interviews and on one of the MLIU compilations.
Back in Northern France, Tomska founded Abstract Cuts, a label dedicated to a precise and 90s-rooted aesthetic, as well as Abstract Lab, his personal studio where he continues to produce, handle drum programming and collaborate behind the scenes with various artists.
