    roomfive16: Room516 Q&A: John Roman Toronto is going through an unprecedented musical high. Not only is the city consistently bringing in the biggest names in electronic music, it’s also become an epicentre for young and talented artists. At the front of the pack is producer John Roman. We were first introduced to him about a year ago through his widely supported Petrified EP on Turbo Recordings. Fast forward to the present and a few massive EPs, remixes for the likes of Proxy, Crookers and Harvard Bass, and a pair of fantastic mixtapes later, it becomes clear that he’s already amassed some serious work to his name. We, like many others, see ourselves continuously drawn to his raw and heavy techno sound so it’s only fitting that we eventually caught up with the revered producer. What do you sound like? Vibes on vibes. One instrument (hardware/software) you can’t live without? D16 Silverline Series. Best part of making music? Thinking about music. Worst part of making music? Reading comments on the Internet. The track you are most proud of? “Telemiscommunications” (John Roman Remix) - deadmau5 & Imogen Heap One track you wish you had made? “It’s Only” (DJ Koze Remix) - Matthew Herbert One track you’re glad you didn’t make? Pass. Only positivity in 2013. The track that gets you in the mood? “Why Do U Feel?” - Moodymann The track that can save a party? “Wide Open” (Len Faki DJ Edit) - DJ Hyperactive The best after-party jam? “New For U” – Andres The best gig you ever played? Metropolis NYE 2013 w/ Machinedrum, XI (Toronto, CA) Producing or playing live? Live until I can’t. I’ll produce forever. Dream collaboration?
