Fine chef and restaurant owner, Tennis splits his time between Paris and Miami, where he enjoys riding motorbikes, collecting vintage action-figures and building upon his vinyl record collection - which now numbers over eleven-thousand strong.

Patrick Joseph Cowley

Profile:
San Francisco based musician and record producer Patrick Cowley, born in Buffalo, New York, has been recording and performing in the Bay area since 1971. Cowley grew up in upstate New York where he worked in local rock bands and eventually studied English at the university of Buffalo. After moving to the Bay Area he began an intense study of the synthesizer at San fransisco City College.

Cowley's recording career began when he was asked to join San Francisco-based artist, Sylvester, in the studio after Sylvester heard what Cowley was doing with the synthesizer and was excited by his innovative techniques. The result was the album Step II which skyrocketed Sylvester to international notoriety. The album landed Cowley a job as a back-up musician on Sylvester's subsequent world-wide tour.

Cowley remained close to the San Francisco club scene and eventually joined forces with producer Marty Blecman to form Megatone Records in the summer of 1981. Under auspices of their parnership Cowley created a succesful dance-oriented 12" single that opened the doors for his award-winning Megatron Man LP (Menergy).

While writing the music for his latest album, he also wrote and produced the succesful dance single "Right on Target" for San Francisco artist Paul Parker which reached #1 on Billboard's Disco Charts. He reunited with Sylvester during the same period and produced the chart-busting "Do You Wanna Funk", also on the Megatone label.

Patrick Cowley died of complications due to AIDS in 1982.

Kevin Rego, the body behind the moving machine of Regoton, has been tinkering in the basement for years learning the ins and outs of his craft. Along the way, he’s remixed tracks by Steve Aoki, Nervo, Zedd, and other top-flight acts in the progressive house genre. Although it may seem like “just another house DJ” remixing these tracks, his work is far superior than the work of his peers; his tracks have been supported by some of the biggest acts in the world, including Afrojack, W&W, Steve Aoki, 3LAU, & Paris & Simo, just to name a few. The last few months have seen an increase in productions from Regoton: he’s put out multiple original tracks, such as his track “Bobble,” his collaboration with Culture Code Ft. Jonny Rose on “Waking Up,” and his most recent banger with Loudan titled “Zen”, which was released on Cr2 Records, and charted all the way up to #51 on the Beatport Progressive House Top 100.

Regoton’s methodical approach to music comes from the heart. As the electronic scene becomes more and more saturated with uninspired big room drops and tasteless bass kicks, he focuses more on the melodic side of progressive. Instead of splitting the dance floor with typical bass drops, Regoton lifts the spirits of his listeners with soaring, melodic choruses and finely tuned electro inserts. Seriously, it’s difficult to listen to a track touched by Regoton and not shuffle across the room. His formula is pretty simple: “I gotta enjoy what I’m doing. I enjoy the music that I make, so during my sets I play what sounds like it. I want my crowds to keep moving, to keep dancing. I want them to feel energetic and alive. I want to know that my energy is being received.”

Regoton doesn’t plan on staying put. Although he’s been building a name for himself in Montreal, the next year proves to be monumental in his global image. Expect to see Regoton showing up in clubs near you, sending beautiful, uplifting progressive house tunes through the speakers and into your hearts. Prepare yourself for an emotional experience; Regoton lives by one mantra: “Music is about expression…and nothing else, really.”
