Héctor Romero
Details:
Subject(s): WMC, Héctor Romero, Miami Beach, Shine
Long before dance music was divided into a million subgenres, Héctor Romero was mixing things up at his legendary block parties in the Bronx. During those anything-goes days, Romero — then known as Baby Hec — developed a love for early house music through residencies at legendary NYC clubs such as the Roxy and the Palladium.
Ever the busy man, Romero went on to form part of Def Mix Productions, the top indie dance label that houses Frankie Knuckles and David Morales. Most recently he released Pasha Ibiza: Winter Session 4, a compilation of his DJ set at the iconic Ibiza club.
His new project is SAW Recordings, a progressive house label he helms alongside Japanese legend Satoshi Tomiie. So far, SAW has released strictly progressive singles like Audiofly's "Stolen Goods," and Romero's live set, along with Tomiie's, should be the golden ticket for those looking for the left field, cutting edge of house music.
