Paige Tomlinson: Songs and Collaborations
Mixmag named her Breakthrough DJ of 2025 for pulling 90s club energy through Liverpool's underground into festival main stages.
The moment that landed it
In 2025, Mixmag named Paige Tomlinson its Breakthrough DJ. Not for hype, but for what she'd already done. Sets at Amnesia Ibiza, Fabric, the Warehouse Project, Glastonbury, Creamfields. Each one pulling the same thread: 90s club records (R.M Project, Direct 2 Disc, X-Press 2, Klubbheads, Bass Bumpers) and filtering them through a sound sharp enough for a modern dancefloor. She's Liverpool through and through, cut her teeth on the city's underground circuit, and took that DNA straight to bigger stages.
The production: house meets breakbeat
Her sets don't sit in one lane. They move across house, techno, breakbeat, hard house, progressive house and trance. If you know Peggy Gou, Secondcity or Eats Everything, you're halfway to what Tomlinson sounds like: warm, punchy, dancefloor-first records that don't take themselves too seriously. The throughline is always that 90s club energy, but the shapes it takes shift release by release.
The releases: three EPs that show the climb
Her catalogue is small but tells a story. Start with Butts Bumpin' EP (Dansu Discs, 2023), then Welcome to the Party EP (Dansu Discs, 2024), then Listen 2 Me (Positiva, 2025). That's the arc: raw Liverpool energy sharpening into a polished, festival-ready sound. She's also released through Archie Hamilton's MicroHertz.

The remixes: where she shows her range
Some of her best work isn't her own. She's remixed Secondcity's I Wanna Feel, MALUGI's Chiggy Chiggy (feat. Inéz), Confidence Man's Control It, and Dart & Kyle Starkey's Always & Forever. Each one shows a different side of her production skill. See Best Paige Tomlinson Collaborations for the full picture.
The platform she built
Social Pleasure is her club night and creative platform, which debuted at ADE 2025 at Thuishaven to a sold-out room. She's also on the DJ Mag Breakthrough DJ shortlist, recognition that doesn't come from one track or one venue, but from consistency and presence.
