Over the years, Brad’s sound evolved to include many forms of house including: funky, disco, speed garage, 2-step, vocal, jazzy, hard UK, and booty. His musical influences include Titonton Duvante, Feelgood, Bad boy Bill, Eric Morillo, MJ Cole, and DJ Sneak.In recent years, Brad has continued to maintain his busy schedule of performing including: multiple long-term club residencies, special events and numerous raves.Elysium has always been ahead of the game, as a performer and artist. After moving to Pittsburgh in the summer of 2002, Thomas shifted his musical focus to production. Although he still maintains a rigorous performing schedule, Thomas can also be found working hard in the studio with production partner DJ 7up.
