A powerhouse vocalist in addition to being one of the top producers in the world, Ron Carroll has become a phenomenon on the global DJ circuit over the last decade. Emerging from the Southside of Chicago with his club The Bangin' Enterprise, Ron has gone on to work with producers such as Erick Morillo, Roger Sanchez, Bob Sinclar and Steve Angello.

Ron is still renown here as the "Minister of Sound", and is one of the very few Chicago producers who has scored international hits both as a vocalist as well as a producer. In 2010, he's launched his new label, Chi City Music.

In this video, he talks about his early days in the basement, his views on "old school" mentalities and keeping relevant with House Music today.
