Johnny Fiasco Bio:
In an industry where one strives to earn respect as a DJ, not many claim mastering the art of both producing and as a DJ. Fiasco has based his entire life cultivating his Chicago skills and has performed in every major city in the world, showing exactly how to push the envelope and take his listeners thru a journey of intense peaks and lush valleys and dissolves any belief that he is a “studio only” producer. Merging the two forms has been his passion and his life. Over the past twenty years, Johnny Fiasco has become a legend and recognized as a true pioneer in of Chicago's house scene. This impressive producer and remixer logs 150k plus frequent-flyer miles a year spinning at clubs and special events globally, from Seattle to Istanbul, including every major city in US. His remarkable sound can gracefully combine soulful electronic sounds, tech vibes, fundamental house, disco, and pure funk. Fiasco’s beginnings can be found at Chicago’s Shelter, pushing the boundaries as one of the pioneers of Chicago house music side by side Mark Farina at Smartbar, Lizard Lounge and the infamous Club Naked. Since then Fiasco continues to DJ, produce and remix his one true love—house.
Today, Fiasco is one of house music’s top producers and remixers. Fiasco’s "Things that go bump in the night" is currently one of Om Records best selling singles to date. Additionally, Johnny’s remixes of Soulstice "Lovely" to Kaskade's "Meditation to the Groove" and now Bassnectar's "Yo" Remix have become an integral part of the Om Records unique sound. Other remixes have included work with Kaskade, Owl City, Rihanna, Justin Timberlake, KD Lang and Bob Sinclair.
