Give Up (Don't) ^Sale

‘Give Up (Don’t)’ turns up the energy to deliver a breaks-fuelled, disco-funk opus. The depths and breadth of Tom’s production ability really shines through with the release of this supercharged 8.45 mins of super groovy funk, contemporary soul and energetic disco all merged into one track. Primed for the dancefloor, it's bursting with bright guitar and bass licks – crisp drums, big strings and BV’s all amounting to a truly authentic mix that builds to a crescendo and back again.

As half of Evil Nine with Pat Pardy, Tom was originally signed to Adam Freeland’s label Marine Parade. Their award-winning ‘You Can Be Special Too’ and ‘They Live!’ albums received widespread acclaim and in the process collaborated with such heavy-hitters as El-P from Run The Jewels, Danny Brown, Aesop Rock and Emily Breeze. They toured the world several times, DJing far and wide, and remixed a whole host of acts such as The Temper Trap, UNKLE, Alex Metric, Timo Maas, Gorillaz and a tonne of others. The Evils also turned in compilation mixes for the ‘FabricLive’ and ‘Y4K’ series, establishing their credentials as one of the most sought-after breakbeats acts in the business in the process.

Tom now chiefly DJs and produces solo as EVL TOM, has a monthly radio show The Evil Tom Show, and will be celebrating the launch of the ‘Absolute Melt’ album with a big event in his home city of Brighton.
