Early life
Thomas Sampson was born and raised in Bradford, England. He was introduced to DJing and garage music at an early age and began to play in local nightclubs within the garage and bassline club scene.
It was from a young age that he realised had a huge interest in music. From the age of just 5, his parents encouraged him to have piano lessons. He went on to achieve grade 5 by the time he was 13. Producing started at the young age of 14, when he managed to get hold of the software ‘Fruityloops’ (now known as FL Studio).
Alongside production, he has toured and played shows across the UK and Europe including Ibiza, Marbella, Mallorca, Luxembourg, Turkey and Ukraine. In 2014 he made his first appearance at the iconic V-festival. Following this, in 2016 he went on to make his debut at Disclosure & Rudimental’s new Wildlife festival.
Music career
After a number of successful underground releases, TS7 was given his first major label project, remixing singer Estelle's hit song "American Boy".
In December 2012, TS7 signed to the talent management company 2-Tone Entertainment and shortly afterwards to Liverpool-based dance music label 3Beat Records/Universal Records. Ts7 then produced an instrumental named "Polygon". After adding a vocal from Taylor Fowlis, the song was released as "Heartlight (Polygon)" via 3Beat Records. The record received mass BBC Radio 1Xtra playlist support. The single was released on 17 February 2013 and went on to become a DJ favourite.
An acoustic version was also posted online, with Fowlis performing a live version on BBC 1Xtra.
In 2013, TS7 was named as a new DJ on the Kiss FM radio network. His weekly show would be on a Thursdat night from 11pm–12am on the network's "Kiss Fresh" branded station.
TS7 went on to release a follow-up record called "Reach". The single was released on iTunes and Beatport. He also released a number of remixes including Sigma's "Nobody to Love", which was a UK number one.
TS7 has also presented Kiss FM's DJ EZ show on Thursday night several times alongside fellow Kiss FM DJs Majestic and Mike Delinquent.
