Thomas Von Party

Career A&R man, Thomas Sontag was born into DJ royalty. His father was proto-trance /
industrial Goa party organizer Dr Bobby, and his brother is none other than the godfather of
Montreal rave, Tiga. Thomas learned to DJ at 13, earned his chops working at Montreal’s era-
defining DNA Records, and spent a solid decade curating well over 100 releases for the
titanic Turbo imprint.
A mainstay in Montreal’s thriving electronic music scene, he's also an international music
bizz magnate. In 2014, he took a year to peer into the future, launching algorithmic
mastering engine LANDR at the same time as he opened ‘Datcha,’ now a beloved fixture in
Montreal’s nightlife scene, where he acts as sole resident and talent booker, showcasing his
wide-eyed vision of dance music.
His online radio show ‘Multi Culti Transmissions’ archives incredible selections and a whole
lot of stoned banter. Original productions like Pygmy Funk, Cobra Kush and Wet Raga have
earned him plays from the likes of heavyweights like Dixon and Harvey, but the world is still
waiting for a full release from TVP. Apparently he is sitting on a massive, Trevor Jackson like
stash of hundreds of unfinished tracks, including entire concept albums and genre defying
jams, but time will tell how many of these will see the light of day.
What is certain however, is that the man is a bonafide killer DJ, 20 years deep in his craft, at
the helm of one of the most inspired labels in the world, with crazy access to lost secrets
and unreleased gems, guaranteed to rock the party
