DJ Tone Depth

Tone Depth Biography



At the age of 11 Tony Papadopoulos (later to become known as Tone Depth) found himself in a peculiar situation. He was walking down the street with a friend when he suddenly fell down a hole and found himself hanging off a metal spike like a human shish kebab, his feet dangling in thin air. The spike went directly up his ass and made a mess of his insides. After 2 months in the hospital, Tone fully recovered and was thankful to be alive. When asked by his parents afterwards what he wanted to do with his life he said, "I want to learn how to play guitar and make music!".
12 years later a chance sighting of Paul Oakenfold at a Miami Airport allowed Tone to pass along on a demo, kicking off what can already be described as an illustrious career. His productions have been signed to labels run by the worlds top international DJ's (Tiesto, Paul Oakenfold, Armin Van Burren, Deep Dish, John Digweed to name a few…) and he's been behind classic remixes like Armin Van Burren "Who Is Watching" ft. Nadia Ali. Tone Depth's productions have also featured on numerous world renowned compilations such as Global Underground, Renaissance, etc…. His songs and remixes continue to be supported by the worlds top DJ's.
Tone has collaborated in the studio with a diverse scope of artists ranging from Lionel Ritchie to Sultan and is now producing many of the artist's signed on his record label, Bad Pony Records. Founded in 2009, his label gives Tone an outlet to express himself in his rawest form and has a no holds barred punk ethic with a tongue in cheek attitude. Tone Depth is the original "Bad Pony", and his artist disciples range in diversity from electro/hip hop, to Tech House and even Electronic Rock.
