Romanthony (1967 – 7 May 2013) was a new-school acid garage producer who routinely summons both the raw soul and the raw sound of originals from the glory days of acid house and garage during the late '80s. Though he is much more an underground name in his native America than Europe (where he has released several full LPs and collections), two Romanthony vocal performances (one co-produced) for the second album released by his fans Daft Punk helped lift his status in the mainstream dance scene.
