A.k.a. Thomás Goethals

Dutch/Mexican DJ and producer from Amsterdam, North Holland, the Netherlands. Born 11 October 1983 in Mexico City, Mexico to a Mexican father and a Dutch mother, Thomás moved to the Netherlands in 1992, together with his brother and mother, settling in the Buitenveldert neighborhood in the South of Amsterdam. In 2004, he formed the group Flinke Namen together with his long time friend Sef (3), who were then joined by MC Fit and Murth the Man-O-Script a year later. In 2008 he released his first mixtape 'Op Volle Toeren' (English: At Full Speed). In 2013, he produced the hit single "Watch Out for This (Bumaye)" together with Major Lazer and FS Green which featured Jamaican dancehall artist Busy Signal. His stage name stems from the fact that "he is of Mexican descent and is also very flexible in his work" (in reference to his eclectic style).
