Biography

thumb|Tom Novy at [[Mayday (music festival)|Mayday 2009]]

Tom Novy lived in Munich in his youth and attended the Luitpold Gymnasium in Munich. In the mid-1980s he started to DJ and got his first residency at the Babalu Club.

Novy started producing music in 1994 when he signed for the Munich-based record label Kosmo Records with his first record "I House U", a cover of the Jungle Brothers' "I'll House You", with lyrics by Novy. His original tracks ran more along the subgenre of European-flavoured progressive house. Since then, Novy has moved to a Chicago-style garage house sound, usually vocalized.

Tom Novy hosted various music-related TV shows on MTV Germany (including the shows Dance Floor Charts, Streetlife, Battle of DJ's and Nightlife) and VIVA.
