-	Shell-shocked by a compilation of Chicago House that his elder brother gave him, music pupil Roman from Darmstadt became interested in electronic music.
-	Visits to Sven Väth’s Omen in Frankfurt and nights spent with Underground Resistance or Warp turned his whole world upside down. LFO’s bass still massages his stomach region to this very day.
-	The first demo tape is given to Jörn Elling Wuttke, who is thrilled and leaves his others bands to join forces in a project with Roman.
-	Together they pay a visit to Ata and Heiko MSO. The latter work as DJs and sellers in Frankfurt’s Delirium and can hardly believe their ears. They are delighted to set their A&amp;R activities (Ongaku, Klang) in motion.
-	For Holy Garage “Surprise”, which also appeared on Eye Q, they found the Playhouse label, later to become the flagship of the label triumvirate and one of the most influential labels in Germany.
-	Time flies in the nineties with working on the label and the success of the projects Alter Ego and Sensorama. Roman also does solo projects under the name Soylent Green, Eight Miles High, Ro 70, Roman IV and his real name. The spectrum ranges from nosebleed techno to delicate ambient and electro-pop tunes.
-	Sven Väth asks Alter Ego to be his producer.
-	Remixes for Daft Punk, Radio Slave, Primal Scream, Ricardo Villalobos, The Human League, Spektrum, Tiefschwarz, Baby Ford, Chicks On Speed, and many others.
-	Alter Ego beats all the records with “Rocker” and Roman provides a worthy successor with “Geht’s Noch!?”.
-	Live appearances all over the world and Roman becomes increasingly popular as a DJ. His sets comprise 20 years of rave in one breath of techno, house, Italo-disco and obscurities. It goes by the name of acid house.

Rino Coppola was a little boy when he started playing bass guitar and accordion, which both made him realize his inborn involvement with music. The passion he developed led him to keep on studying more and more in order to move on with the musical tendencies and to gain experience. Now Rino has found
his artistical dimension: his sound is the right patchwork of house/club music matched up with great deep music.

During the 2009 he was very busy in making new interesting projects among wich "Old Things" stands out. This is an EP released by the label "Sleep Is Commercial" that marks the renewal of his sound. Rino has been beeing also resident dj into the "rehab" crew since 2010.

The last releases are more interesting, the ultimate one is "Ipnose Ep" which consists of 3 original techhouse tracks and 2 remixes. That work has been appreciated by several artists like Marco Carola, Josh Wink, Someone Else, Ray Okpara, DUbfire, Paco Osuna, Nic Fanciulli Timo Mass and many moore.
"Mas o menos Ep" on 12" will be the next release; it consists of the original track plus four remixes of Santos, Alex Dolby, Stefano Lotti and Dave Manuel.
His first personal album, made up of several tracks, will be out next year.At the moment Rino is working hard with his fellow friend Francesco Di Marco on a new project as "Livin Wires".Stay tuned for more mirabilia!!!!
