DJ Hyperdy
(Les Platinistes numériques)
Hyperdy is part of the new media collective Les platinistes numériques,
that uses old and new computer and audiovisual technologies in art contexts.
His interest for “DJing” comes from the late 90’s when he discovered
the drum’n’bass sound of Mickey Finn and Grooverider in London’s basement
parties. Since then, he’s been mixing on the Montreal underground scene,
collaborating with other DJs and VJs.

Involved in the music field for 7 years now, his interest was awaken
when he got closer to the Montreal night life scene. Bearing a great passion
for electronic music, and more specifically to techno music, Tomas became DJ
and started organizing several events combining music and new audiovisual technologies.
Today, he is a sound engineer whose next projects include music production that
will blend technology and creativity.
