Tomas has a degree in economics which he combines with his love for music working in the music industry for almost a decade.


His current role is Business Development and Partnerships Manager at The state51 Music Group where he worked with many top labels and distributors such as Beggars (XL Recordings, Adele, The Prodigy), mtheory (Major Lazer, Dillon Francis, RL Grime), AEI (UKF, DNB Arena), Future Classic (Flume), Liberation (Childish Gambino), Demon Music Group (BBC), Stones Throw (Snoop Dogg, 7 Days of Funk) and many more established independent brands helping them connect and deliver their music to streaming services and platforms around the globe.


His experience running self-owned independent label Filterjam, while being an artist and a DJ himself, enables Tomas to see things from a few different perspectives and play a “non-zero sum game” in all of his daily business situations.
