Growing up as a youth a couple blocks from Chicago's Southeast "Hegewisch" area in Calumet City... Riverman as a youth searched and found an escape from the urban jungle by finding the Forests, Beaches, and Nature as a MAIN Source of Musical inspiration. Both parents being talented musicians helped put his ears into shape from day one as well. Blues and Rock were basically a huge influence as a kid... with his father always playing keyboards and practicing in major southside Blues bands. Playing Drums and Percussion was seeded early on too. As a breakdancer in the 80's Jake was part of a multicultural melting pot of the youth... spinning on his hand at "breakin battles" in 7th grade to the sounds of Newcleus's "Jam on it" and even those cuts that ended up basically the pathways to Chicago House and Techno because if it had a dope beat breakers would rock it back then! When "The Hot Mix 5" came out and with "the mixes" on the radio every weekend everyone was recording HM5 WBMX mixes and trading these recorded "mixtapes" in school. Each and every Monday in school Riverman traded the tapes in the 80's with househead friends! In High School broadening horizons and eventually turning to the sounds of Industrial, Punk, Reggae, Metal, and even Ambient, and World Music Styles.. the road to DNB was a diverse one. Always pushing good music to the masses and in the later 80's as a dreadlocked mohawked 19yr old raver Riverman threw Chicago's infamous "Monsterave" in 1992! It was strategically planned the week after the very 1st Lollapalooza and with around a 1000 ending up in attendance it popped off with a true legendary night... never to be forgotten to many! Also throwing other nights like a Wrigleyville monthly "Reconnection" party series at Underground Lounge in the 2000's featuring DNB, Techno, and House sounds. A monthly House/DNB party as part of the "Penthouse Collective" at CROBAR. Also a 100% DnB WEEKLY clubnight at Dragonfly Nightclub where he booked most of Chitown's Drum N Bass and Jungle Selectors... so all Jungists would have somewhere to flex! Rman basically helped spread DNB to the windy city since day one... accepting ALL enthusiasts as part of a Bass Music squad and Accepting ALL CREWS! Releasing endless mixes over the years and broadcasting occasional Junglistic/DNB Vibes on the BLIMP RADIO NETWORK, VOCOLO Radio Chicago 91.1fm, and WNUR! Over the years he dedicated his life to delivering that "perfect" mix as an art form!
Rman DJ'ed at tons of the original EDM Fests back in a day, tons of "desert raves" out west, 30+ years of warehouse parties in Chicago, opened for dozens of the biggest worldwide Drum N Bass Legends (LTJ Bukem, Aphrodite, Dom & Roland, Deiselboy, Evol Intent, to name a few!) Guest DJ'd at most of Chicago's DnB/Jungle club-nights over the past 30 years..
 including a 2 yr+ solid SMARTBAR monthly residency at the MIA Crew's 10+ yr DNB night (as one of the original members back then!) "We Don't Stop" is his saying... given to him from the legendary Paul Johnson himself!!
Blessssss
