Hi-Fidelity presents.....
Tom Stephan aka
SUPERCHUMBO
www.superchumbo.com
After moving to London ten years ago to study film, he wanted to recapture the vibe created by Junior Vasquez during his clubbing days at NY’s Sound Factory. He released The Revolution under the Superchumbo moniker last year, prompting a flood of remix offers, including Missy Elliot, Kylie and Basement Jaxx. His remix of Yoko Ono will be her next single and is due for release later this year; he’s also worked the Superchumbo magic on Fierce Ruling Diva (The Sound Factory classic was originally retouched by Moby) and it’s Tom’s new mix that has stormed into Pete Tong’s cool cuts chart. And old friends Xpress2 came straight to Tom for a remix of ‘Muzikizum’.
But don’t think Tom’s become a slave to the remix. With a production rate that makes ants look lazy, he's ready to unleash new track ‘Irresistible’ (available in September), a blistering twisted tune to cement his position at the forefront of dance music. Hot on its heels comes the Superchumbo artist album, due for release in September on Loaded in the UK, and Twisted in the US.
The defining high of djing for Tom remains playing live. Weekends at Tribal Sessions with an up for it crowd plastered in war paint and feather head-dresses, or his own London nights, Roach at Turnmills and Tank at certifiable gay club Crash, both launched this year, give him the opportunity to play up to five hours of his inimitable brand of twisted house. As Superchumbo is Portugese for “super- leaded”, his fans have now taken to calling themselves Leadheads.
Tom Stephan's transatlantic, twisted sound is an inimitable, seamless blend of deep tribal and funky beats, a journey into the darker side of dance music. He’s signed to the newly revived legendary Twisted label in the States, and to Skint mother company Loaded in the UK.
