Thomas Sampson, known professionally as TS7, is a British DJ, record producer, remixer and songwriter from Bradford, England, associated with Leeds, United Kingdom. His recorded work and DJ sets move across bassline, UK garage, bass house and drum and bass — with credits that also touch dubstep, liquid funk, riddim and UK funky.

He started music young: piano lessons as a child and a move into production at roughly age 14 using FruityLoops (FL Studio). TS7’s first formal label link came in 2007 when he signed to Agent X’s Heatseeker Recordings. That period produced the single “Smile,” which directly led to an official remix of Estelle’s “American Boy.” He has been active as a DJ and producer since 2007.

TS7’s catalog and releases show a multi-genre approach. Specific singles include “Real Raver” (a collaboration with Slick Don), “Slow Down” and “Know My Name.” He has also produced remixes for contemporary dance artists, notably a remix commissioned for James Hype. Those titles and remix credits underline his role as a cross-genre producer and remixer rather than a specialist limited to a single lane.

On production technique and sound: TS7’s background in piano and early FL Studio work inform a melodic sensibility alongside club-oriented low end. Across his releases you’ll hear pitched vocal hooks and clipped garage-style edits work alongside heavy, club-focused basslines — elements that sit naturally in bassline and UK garage material as well as in bass house sets. In drum and bass and liquid-influenced tracks he leans toward cleaner, melodic chords and rolling drum patterns rather than maximalist neuro textures. As a remixer and songwriter he often reworks vocal lines into dance-floor-friendly arrangements, which is evident in the route from “Smile” to the Estelle remix and in his remixes for artists such as James Hype.

As a DJ TS7 has extended his presence beyond records through radio and live shows. He has hosted shows on Kiss FM and Kiss Fresh, bringing his selections — from garage and bassline rollers to heavier bass and DnB tracks — to broadcast audiences. Those radio slots form a concrete part of his public contribution: curating cross-genre playlists, premiering edits and supporting vocal-led club tracks alongside instrumental bass cuts.

Specific industry connections and collaborations are part of his track record: signing to Agent X’s Heatseeker Recordings in 2007, releasing “Smile,” producing the Estelle “American Boy” remix, and collaborating with Slick Don on “Real Raver.” He has also been commissioned to remix contemporary dance producers such as James Hype. These named releases, labels and remix credits chart the measurable points in his career.

TS7 remains active behind decks and in the studio since 2007, balancing single releases, official remixes and radio work across the UK bass and DnB spectrum.
