Germany

Since 1992 Romanto a.k.a. Tobias Koch from Nuremberg has been working as a DJ. For that time he developed a very special style of electronic dance music which is placed between Soul, Funk, Hip Hop, Electro and House. Meanwhile he counts to one of the busiest German DJs worldwide. Together with his mate Out Of The Drum a.k.a. Mario Zerfass he started to produce Funkin’ Electronical Beats in 1996. In the same year Tobias and Mario produced their first track “Smilin’ Faces”, released on Kosmomusic. “Smilin’ Faces” became an international dancefloor hit very fast. This success was the reason to keep on working on this level. The enormous success of his productions led to a lot of international interest and enforced Romanto to special gigs like Berlin's E-Werk, the Loveparade, the MTV Air & Style Sunflower Festival and the Rave & Cruise or Frontpage Tour. But the highlight in the career of DJ Romanto was the DJ support for Jamiroquai's “Synchronized” tour.
