MR TC es uno de los tres organizadores y DJs residentes de las fiestas Night of the Jaguar que se vienen celebrando desde hace cuatro años en The Art School, un edificio conectado directamente a la facultad de Arte que funciona como cafeteria y restaurante durante el día y por las noche se transforma en uno de los clubes mas importantes de la ciudad. Estas fiestas han servido para experimentar como DJs y poder traer a artistas de fuera como OKO DJ, Esclé, Karl Rothe, Eva Geist, Sacha Mambo o LAPS...
Además de esto prepara cada mes, junto con su amigo Conal Blake (Whilst), el programa Umgebung para LYL Radio, algo que funciona como una ventana abierta al panorama musical local, comisariando un amplio abanico de artistas emergentes.
En su version en directo MR TC se encarga de tocar sintetizadores, cajas de ritmos, samplers y efectos, acompañado de Daniel Magee (Lo Kindre) tocando la guitarra y Matt Robin con la batería.
Uno de los proyectos mas llamativos en los que ha estado involucrado MR TC es Tafi All Stars surgido de la colaboración entre el Green Door Studio de Glasgow y el Tafi Cultural Institute en Ghana. Tras la publicación del disco Youth Stands Up grabado con músicos de Ghana, Glasgow y Belice se estableció una relación de la que surgieron varios intercambios y viajes de estudios. Uno de estos primeros viajes dio como fruto el disco Outside Rhythm grabado por Tafi All Stars con MR TC, Conal Blake y algunos miembros del Tafi Cultural Institute.
En este momento es inminente el lanzamiento de un EP en colaboración con Lo Kindre bajo el sello Neubau seguido de su tercer EP para Optimo, además de otros trabajos y remixes.
Si quieres saber mas próximamente estará tocando en Lituania, Alemania, Turquía y EEUU, y también puedes ir a buscarlo a la escuela de Arte.
Muchas gracias Thomas!

We're paying attention again to the Scottish city of Glasgow, from where Thomas Lea Clarke Aka MR TC gives us a mix full of dark tunes and strong rhythms, including some unreleased tracks.
MR TC is one of the three organizers and resident DJs of the Night of the Jaguar parties that have been held for four years at The Art School, a building directly connected to the Art University that serves as a cafe and restaurant during the day and at night it becomes one of the most important clubs in the city. These parties have served to experiment and grow as DJs and to bring in artists from outside like OKO DJ, Esclé, Karl Rothe, Eva Geist, Sacha Mambo or LAPS ...
In addition to this he co-curates every month, together with his friend Conal Blake (Whilst), the Umgebung show in LYL Radio, something that works as an open window to the local music scene, programming a wide range of emerging artists.
In its live version MR TC plays synthesizers, drum machines, samplers and effects, together with Daniel Magee (Lo Kindre) playing guitar and Matt Robin playing live drums.
One of the most striking projects in which MR TC has been involved is Tafi All Stars, which emerged from the collaboration between the Green Door Studio in Glasgow and the Tafi Cultural Institute in Ghana. After publishing Youth Stands Up album recorded with musicians from Ghana, Glasgow and Belize, a relationship with several exchanges and study trips was established. One of these first trips resulted in the album Outside Rhythm recorded by Tafi All Stars with MR TC, Conal Blake and some members of the Tafi Cultural Institute.
Upcoming a collaborative EP with Lo Kindre on Neubau label followed by its third EP on Optimo, plus other works and remixes.
If you want to know more he will be playing soon in Lithuania, Germany, Turkey and the USA, but you can also go to The Art School looking for him.
Thank you so much MR TC!
