Thomas Weyer began DJing in the mid-1980s. His first releases were dance tracks with rap and pop elements on CBS and Warner. In the 1990s, however, he turned to rave and hard trance with acid interludes. His 1995 single “Are Am Eye?” became a huge hit. His club nights as resident DJ at venues such as the Rheinpark in Germersheim, the OZ in Stuttgart, and the Nexus 6 in Schorndorf are still legendary today.
