He worked variously with N-Trance, the Time Frequency, Belinda Carlisle, Ice MC, Scooter, Mary Kiani and DJ Dado.
Due to the success of his show and the Scottish dance music boom, Wilson's Bonus Beats programme aired on Forth FM during the mid-1990s.
As well as being a radio presenter, he was also a record producer and achieved some considerable chart success with ten singles, one of which "Technocat" reached the Top 40 in the UK.
Radio Forth announced the death of Tom Wilson - father of four children; Lynsey, Stephanie, Craig and Allex- on 25 March 2004, at Edinburgh's Western General Hospital following a heart attack, and a short period of illness.
His will requested that every man attending the service should wear a maroon tie, the colour worn by his favourite football team, and that donations should be given to the British Heart Foundation.
