Aka John Roman


From the tracks that have been being produced; some credit is needed from one of the most highly underrated, and anticipated artists of the year.  Hailing from Toronto, BC John Roman is going to be the next artist on all of your go see lists! Check out this excerpt...  

"After massive blog exposure, multiple number 1 tracks on Hype Machine, record label interest and international gig offers, Roman went into reclusion. While his music continued to spread and build popularity, the Toronto-based artist had seemingly disappeared. Hints of his whereabouts were whispered in the dance community – November, Brodinski’s chart features a track called “Save Us” (John Roman Nigerian Dub) by Nadastrom; December, ElectroTO’s “Producing for Presents” EP features an unreleased original John Roman track “Sing!” which is pulled from the site after a week; January, a mysterious remix of Proxy’s “8000” starts appearing in virtually all of Congorock’s sets; February, rumors begin about a mixtape of unreleased John Roman tracks called “Reclusion”; March, Roman’s remix of Smalltown Romeo’s “Boom Ha” appears on Plant Music’s Scion A/V sampler; April, NT89 charts “Coma” by John Roman in his Resident Advisor Chart; May, Discobelle Records release “Save Us” (John Roman Nigerian Dub) in Neoteric’s Turned On Vol. 1 compilation; June, the rumors are confirmed – “Reclusion” arrives."

Look for him soon; hopefully, in a town near you.
