Thomas Bronzwaer is one of those young Dutch producers you will be hearing a lot more about in the coming months. Born in Nijmegen, The Netherlands it wasn't until 2005 that things really started rolling for the Dutchman.
The release of his very first solo production, 'Close Horizon', caused something of a storm in trance land as it was picked up by literally every big name in the scene and eventually licensed to Vandit and remixed by Paul van Dyk himself. The follow-up single 'Shadow World' did even better, again picked up by all the relevant names and the two singles also sparked an interest in Thomas' capabilities as a DJ. Meanwhile Thomas kept releasing tracks under his Arizona moniker and in 2006, he launched a completely new, techier project: Avalon. The debut single 'Circa' again received massive support and subsequently gigs in Europe, the USA and China followed.
Like 2004 and 2005 before it, 2006 has been a rollercoaster year as the gigs kept coming, and new tracks under all guises hit the scene. Keep your ears open for new collaborations with John O'Callaghan, Suzy Solar and Paul Moelands, and remixes for John Askew and Giuseppe Ottaviani ‘Through Your Eyes;. Besides the new tunes, 2006 marked the start of Thomas' monthly radioshow Language which is aired every third wednesday on the month on www.di.fm's Trance Channel, the biggest online trance radiostation, and more radiostations will soon follow suit. With the support of all the big guns, gigs worldwide and a release schedule that has most trance producers green with envy the next trance master from the Dutch camp looks very likely to be Thomas Bronzwear.
