Singer songwriter, musician and performer.  Born and raised in the Midwest under the diverse 
Northern Illlinois/Chicagoland musical skyline.  His hometown roots come from around Rockford Illinois 
suburbs. Where he catered to a diverse  educational and artistic background.  Majoring in industrial 
electronics,  computer controls, graphic media arts, and yes, Music.  The object of his obsession. 

Born into a family history of musicians (mother’s side), he firmely states that the artistic decision
was made way before his conception. He merely accepted it at a very early age. Stating, “One does not
make or control art, one merely expresses his or her point of view!  With ones weapon of choice of course.”
Well, his so called weapon of choice happened to be the performing arts. Anything to get on stage and 
satisfy his thirst to release. Thus Daniel DeRomo is born.

To his credit Daniel has managed to pull his own weight through the years.Fact is that for the most part 
he is a self taught well rounded songwriter/musician.  First at age 14 starts to play guitar.  By 
age 17 progressing into basic music comp. Introducing bass and electric/acoustic drums. By the time 
he  had turned 20, keyboards and vocals had emerged into his arsenal of expression. While still 
presently the heart of his band “Devils In Angels”,  he carries with him a diverse history in musical 
and performance background.   

In the early days he found solace in the emerging dj/club culture. So in the infancy of his career Daniel and 
his partner (MixMaster JD) started a mobile dj service catering to every venue and house party that 
would let them play it loud.  At that time Chicago house music had just exploded. Setting the stage for a 
new type of performer.  The professional DJ. Then came the classic club dance duos such as, 2 Unlimited, 
Labouche and Culture Beat. With club anthems like, “Twilight Zone” and “Wanna Be My Lover.” Which 
inspired Daniel and set the stage for him to persue his first music production (Joker). A combination of
 house and techno tracks in a compilation entitled “Techno World.”  Introducing him to the emerging 
world of EDM. The electronic musician. Very much still in its infancy.  

Having gotten a taste of an audience, Daniel continued his musical progression into having to add
vocals to his tracks. So he followed up with with a 10 song self-titled project “Joker.”  Which produced 
such tracks as, “Slowdance” , “Are You Ready,”  and “Salome.” Having the full fledged music bug in his 
system, he took on a talented newcomer “AVA” (Angelina Van Arden). Produced tracks such as “Revolution,”
“Caught Up” and “Realtime.”  This while co-producing the mix CD series “Mixin Mayhem” with JD.  Which 
now has been past on to the new generation “MixMaster Suave.” 

Ever since, this duo of Daniel DeRomo and AVA have been hitting the club scene and live stage. 
Performing under the banner  of “Devils In Angels” and D.N.A throughout the midwest. Apperances at 
Chicagoland venues like, Tailgaters, Double Door, Whiskies, Penny Road Pud, Shark City to name a very few.
Accumulating a good loyal group of friends and followers. Which the emergence of social media has 
taken to a whole new level and brings us to his new endeavor. With such new influences as, Tiesto, 
Calvin Harris, Deadmau5 and David Guetta hitting the digital media stream. DeRomo feels his career 
my have finally come full circle. The time has finally come to embrace that, social media has killed 
the television star. 

Through his musical career Daniel DeRomo has experimented with an array of musical genres.  That have 
shaped his musical form, but the goal still to this day remains the same. That even though time and a 
different generation have changed the landscape. The soul remains the same. Always embrace ones point 
of expression, be it physical, vocal or visual. That's why in his eyes there is always more than one 
side to every story.
