Satoshie Tomiie

There's a web page of him?
I need a biography and a list of his productions.
Anybody can tell me?

Hmm, don't know of a website, but here's a little info.

Satoshi is from Japan and has been around a while. He co-produced the classic house tune "Tears" with house legend Frankie Knuckles. He did a lot of remixes in the Chicago house style. His album "Full Lick" sort of started a new path into dark, progressive house, which is where he's been ever since.

Here's a very incomplete list of his work in roughly (by year) the order which they were released. I'm sure others can add to this list.

Albums:

Full Lick (LP) (contains "Love in Traffic" amongst others)

I know it by his work with David Morales on the remix of "Discoteque" of U2 in 1996.
I love Love in Traffic and Virus.

Here's more info :

BORN: 1966, Tokyo, Japan

A house music veteran and one of the first producers to convert the Japanese to club culture, Satoshi Tomiie was a crucial third man in the Def Mix Productions team helmed by David Morales and Frankie Knuckles. Born in Tokyo in 1966, Tomiie grew interested in electronics and keyboards at an early age, and formed his first band in the early '80s. After American house music began crossing the ocean, Tomiie began DJing and producing on his own. He met house pioneer Frankie Knuckles while the two DJed at a party thrown by a Japanese cosmetics company, and was promptly hired aboard New York's Def Mix Productions collective, home of Knuckles and another house hero, David Morales.Tomiie collaborated on several dancefloor smashes during the late '80s and early '90s, including "Tears" by Underground Solution and "I'll Be Your Friend" by Robert Owens. He also began remixing all sorts of club-bound pop stars -- Michael Jackson, Madonna, Mariah Carey, David Bowie, Diana Ross and U2, among others. Though he didn't record much on his own, Tomiie issued singles under his own name as well as Level 9, Loop 7, and the Black Shells. A contract with Sony in the late '90s resulted in a flurry of new productions, including his debut album, Full Lick. ~ John Bush, All Music Guide

where can i download that remix???

Posted by Kurve on Apr-23-2002 18:58:

i would call satoshi more int he reall house/progressive not really straight progressive ..he even thinks he isnt a progressive dj/producer he says hes a house producer...anyway many of his rmx and productions consist of vocals.... he digs vocals .which im not to strong for personaly ...but the few satoshi tomiie tracks i think are gold are Satoshi Tommie - Virus and Atari (Jaded in tokoyo mix) ....rmx FSOL - Future Sound of London (satoshi tomie mix) this was a killer rmx of this classic !!!! ...and honeslt the vocal track i absolutely love now of his rmx is Kosheen - Hungry ..this is STRAIGHT KILLER!!!!! ....

thats right... satoshie have been made house, i think.
a different house than the tradicional (like morales, knuckles and company)
he goes to a different direccion, more experimental... and that's why is difficult to put him into a style.

Yeah he remixed the FSOL trance tune into a wicked prog house version. Love it

Yup! I think that set is great!

Posted by Carl on Apr-24-2002 16:59:

Yeah, the mixing was spot on and a great selection of tunes, I listened to that quite a few times.

Posted by JM on Apr-24-2002 17:26:

up in flames is one of the best dark/progressive tunes i've ever heard. the bedrock mix is the shit!!! there are about 5 mixes of that tune that i'm aware of that i have on cd, but unsure of the remix names at this point.
