Dummy Mix 629 | Tommy Villiers
One half of the DIY dance pop duo piri & Tommy, best known for their viral drum ‘n’ bass hit ‘soft spot’ which sky-rocketed to number 1 on TikTok, self-proclaimed Soundcloud nerd Tommy Villiers is using his new-found success to help establish an exciting wave of dance music for the social media generation.
The Essex-hailing beat maker spends his time re-imagining classic UK club genres for an emerging crop of Gen Z ravers, following in the footsteps of artists such as PinkPatheress who are managing to intersect the stasis of modern life, the high-energy of drum ‘n’ bass, and the rapid pace of TikTok culture. Having previously lived out his rock star fantasies in his then-band Porij, Villiers bonded with piri over a mutual love of dance music and began creating together as their own relationship blossomed.
Despite already being an internet sensation as part of piri & Tommy, the rising talent is looking to pave his own way and establish himself as a solo producer and DJ. Toasting the latest in our Dummy mix series, Villiers has delivered an hour and 7 minutes of non-stop club-ready bangers. Enjoy.
