When Ron S. first discovered the pounding rhythms and ominous feel of industrial acts like Front 242 and Nitzer Ebb in 1990, he was immediately hooked on electronic music. He began collecting records and Dj'ing house and acid house music at underground parties in St. Louis, Missouri in 1993. By 1995, he purchased his first drum machine and synthesizer and began producing original material. Ron's first release, "A Life of Destruction", was pressed and released in April, 1996 under the fledgling Anode Records imprint. His turntable skills sharpened and were in demand from a series of underground mix tapes. This lead to many DJ appearances around the midwest, opening for superstar acts like Frankie Bones, Terry Mullan, Richie Hawtin, Josh Wink and others. Ron's intricate DJ sets consisting of 3 turntable sets, double copy tricks, cutting and scratching landed him residencies at the St. Louis clubs Quazar, Monastary, and the Firehouse. With appearances at The Upstairs Lounge as part of the Solid Union DJ crew, they were voted St. Louis best club DJ's by the Riverfront Times in April, 1999. That year also brought third Anode release, a compilation also including St. Louis artists. The "Fundamentals" records, released in 2001, incorporated a back to basics sound, aimed specifically at the techno DJ. After relocating to Denver, 2005 was a productive year for Ron and Anode records.  The widely acclaimed "Front Range" release received worldwide rotation, and a shift from DJ'ing to Live PA performances were recognized in Colorado and his hometown of St. Louis. The Minnesota based experimental label We Are... Records licensed the Ron S. electro-bass track "Farewell to the Southside" for their "Noise and Toys Vol. 1" circuit bent CD compilation, released in January of 2006. The "Mindshape E.P.", by globe traveling DJ Locutus, with a remix from label boss Ron S. also received international attention in 2006, as well as the various artists "End of Days E.P." During 2007, the “Rugged Land” release is found its way into techno sets around the world, while Ron continued to rock dancefloors around the U.S. with his hardware based live sets in Detroit, Minneapolis, Indanapolis, St. Louis, Denver, and New Mexico.  Ron is currently based in St. Louis, Missouri and is available for live performances, sound design,audio engineering  and music production, as well as custom electronics work.
