Romanthony

Romanthony is a new-school acid garage producer who routinely summons both the raw soul and the raw sound of originals from the glory days of acid house and garage during the late '80s. Though he's much more an underground name in his native America than Europe (where he has released several full LPs and collections), two Romanthony co-productions (and a vocal) for the second album released by fans Daft Punk helped lift his status in the mainstream dance scene. Born Anthony Moore, he began producing in the garage mecca of New Jersey, specializing in high-energy, low-fidelity productions during an era in which dance productions became ever more mainstreamed. Released on his own Black Male label -- he also owns Orange and World -- club assaults like "Floorpiece" and "Let Me Show You Love" presented an aggressive, extroverted dancefloor persona, straight out of Prince's playbook and akin to Chicago's Green Velvet.
