In an industry where one strives to earn respect as a DJ, not many claim mastering the art of producing and as a DJ. Juan Lopez 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.

Fiasco’s beginnings can be found at Chicago’s Shelter, pushing the boundaries by pio- neering house music at Smartbar, Lizard Lounge and the infamous Club Naked. Since then Fiasco continues to DJ, produce and remix his one true love—house. “My category is house music. If someone asks me what I play: ‘It is house.’ It’s techy, it’s hard, it’s disco, it’s vocally, and it’s all of the above, really. The spectrum is pretty wide and that’s why I am so in love with house music.” Today, Fiasco is one of house music’s top producers and re- mixers. Fiasco’s “Things that go bump in the night” is currently one of Om records best selling single to date. Additionally, Johnny’s remixes of Soulstice “Lovely” to Kaskade’s “Meditation to the Groove” and now Bassnec- tar’s “Yo” Remix have become an integral part of the Om Records unique sound. Other remixes have included work with Kaskade, Justin Timberlake, KD Lang and Bob Sinclair. 2007 Billboard Credits Johnny Fiasco’s – Samantha James “Rise” #1 chart position and Beatport’s #1 download in December of 2006.
