Harry Choo Choo Romero

"I am a person who tries to change style in every record I make... and every producer should strive not to do the same thing all the time..." - says American Harry "Choo Choo" Romero. Harry was fortunate; he was born and raised in a musical family. His mother was passionate about Latin rhythms, while his father was an opera singer. Romero was destined to become a musician. Run-DMC inspired Choo Choo (a nickname he received due to the railroad conductor's cap he wore since childhood) to start his DJ career in the late 80s at a nightclub in New Jersey. From the very beginning, Romero was taken under the wing of the Millennium Music production company. Harry worked at their label Grossip Records, creating demo programs. His first musical work, Soulfuric - "Urban Turban," was ahead of its time - in it, Romero combined Arabic melodies with house sounds. Strictly Rhythm released this track in 1995, and later Romero wrote another composition for this label, "Sea of Passion." Both tracks quickly sold out, making the name Harry "Choo Choo" Romero famous. Subsequent releases followed on the labels Emotive, Sex Mania, Power Music, and Gossip Records. One of Romero's creations, "Il Futuro," caught the attention of composer Robert Clivilles. Robert asked Harry to record and produce his song "Saturday Night" for the LP "Robi-Rob's Club World," released in 1996. Collaborating with many well-known producers was a significant milestone in Harry's career development. Conspirated Mankeys - a project organized by Romero in partnership with Jose Nunez - released several interesting tracks, including "Cro-Magnon" and "Electus," which came out on Subliminal records. After some time, Romero, Nunez, and Subliminal label leader Erik Morillo formed the trio Ministers De La Funk. This project was behind one of the best hits released on Subliminal, - "Believe," featuring the vocals of Jocelyn Brown. Under the name The Dronez, the trio remixed famous pop hits by Whitney Houston - "I'm Your Baby Tonight" and Madison Avenue - "Don't Call Me Baby." Harry's next successful tracks were "Hazin & Phazin" (Defected) and "Just Can't Get Enough" in collaboration with Inaya Day (AMPM), which ended up in the British national charts. Then came compositions with deeper sounds - "Beats Vol 1" and "Beats Vol 2," with the latter being released on Perfecto Records and enjoyed popularity among DJs like Paul Oakenfold and Timo Maas. Romero has done a considerable amount of remixes, including works with Basement Jaxx - "Bingo Bango" and Modjo - "Lady." Harry has his own label, Bambossa, which is a sublabel of Subliminal. On Bambossa, Romero released his debut single "So Lonely."
