Tomas Diablo is a CD and vinyl DJ who brings the extensive beat-matching style usually associated with house or hip-hop to other genres, such as electro, new wave, goth, industrial, trip-hop, and rock.

Tomas is founder and resident of:

 

Strangelove 1st Fridays at the Cat Club (Folsom and 8th). Dark electro, industrial, new wave and goth. Different themes and guests every month.

Villainy 3rd Saturdays at the Paradise Lounge. (Folsom and 11th). "The Dance Club with a Dark Side" features San Francisco’s finest DJs spinning Electro/Dance/Indie/New Wave in the main room, and Goth/Industrial upstairs.

Every month, we feature a different villain on the flyer, which corresponds to that night's theme. With go-go dancers that dress the theme, villain visuals, and goodies...

 

Tomas is currently a resident at:

 

 

Bondage-a-Go-Go Wednesdays at the Glas Kat. San Francisco's longest-running fetish dancde party.

Shadow Society 4th Thurdays at the Uptown in Oakland. Film Noir and Lovecraft-inspired, dark dance and live acts monthly.

The Black Widows San Francisco's original gothic strip revue.

And has been a resident at:
  Rock This Town! Tomas Diablo and 2 guest DJs played music that they would never dare to play at their usual events. Rock, swing, pop, hair metal, ska, funk, punk... anything and everything...
Danse Macabre Classic goth, death rock, and dark new wave (no crunchy or stompy) on 3rd Saturdays with Tomas Diablo and monthly guests.
Substance at the EndUp. Usually the 4AM to 6AM shift, bridging the gap between new wave and the house that took over at 6. Yeah, it made me a zombie for the rest of the weekend, but it was a lot of fun.
Decade - 5 DJs playing 5 different music from different decades. Examples of sets I have done: 1990's Dance Cheese, 1940's Swing, 1970's Birth of British New Wave, 1990's Girls of Trip-Hop, etc.

Tomas Diablo is also an electronic artist. For 26 consecutive monthly issues back in 2000-2002, he supplied the music for the CD-ROMs that accompanied Computer Gaming World (CGW) magazine. The tracks were pieced together with an ancient digital 4-track program, SoundEdit 16, and played on the main screen of the CD. They were also the introduction of jazz, new wave, and genre bastardization for a lot of young gamers.


Make sure to check out the 'Listen' page, as it's stocked with goodies to listen to. I update the 'Setlists' page after every event, and you can find out where I'm spinning next on the 'News' page. Enjoy the music!
