Tom Sharkett is a Todmorden, UK-based musician and founding member of W. H. Lung. He's been on a hot streak with a run of standout remixes for the likes of LCD Soundsystem, Nation of Language, and Nightbus. He recently put out a solo EP titled 25 on Test Pressing Records and it's a wonderful showcase of his glistening synth-pop sound that highlights his timeless, crystalline, melancholic productions and heartfelt vocals.
For his exclusive guest DJ mix for Midnight in a Perfect World, Tom goes deep on the dancefloor grooves with sharp selections from his own catalog, fresh underground remixes, and an early taste of his upcoming official remix for UK duo (and Midnight in a Perfect World alums) Maribou State. Along the way, he also includes archival clips of an interview with pioneering American musician and electronic composer Wendy Carlos.
