UK & Meriden, CT
PRODUCER, CEO - WINTER IN NEW ENGLAND LTD.
Genre: Hip Hop, R&B, Rock
Rome X has been a musician since 1980, and a hip hop producer since 1985. Rome X is a multi-instrumentalist who
plays 5 instruments, as well as, a songwriter with over 70 published songs on the underground level, and is a
proud ASCAP member. Rome X also played bass in a Rock Band for 5 years, so his knowledge of music runs deeper
than hip hop. Rome X has written a popular radion jingle for a prominent law firm in CT, and that jingle (on an
urban station) was renewed 3 times because of its popularity.
In his duties for the label, he engineers all of their tracks from beginning to end, and is currently one half of
a hip hop group with his artist "Kryptic," who is based in the UK. They are currently working on their second
album which will be released on their label's imprint.
As far as Rome X's works, they have all been on the underground level, but his influence as a top undeground
producer spans the globe, as they have worldwide fans and admirers. One artist with whome Rome X enjoys a very
good working relationship with is Jade Foxx (aka The Mixtape Queen). She has appeared on over 300 mixtapes
worldwide and Rome X has an exclusive license to remix 32 of her songs for a project. He produces for many
different people from the US to Norway, to Germany and Britain.
With Kryptic, they have had 2 number one songs on 2 different internet stations, and one of those songs, "Microphone
Technique" was number one for 7 straight days on a station in Denmark. They have had a few thousand downloads
of their album on Snocap, and have appeared on UKFlowTV and BBC Homegrown Cutz in England.
