Now & Next: Sean Roman

Now & Next is a quick-fire interview series built around two simple but telling questions. We ask artists to reflect on where they’re at in their career and creative journey, and where they’re headed next. For each answer, they pick two tracks: one that sums up where they’re at right now, and another that hints at where they’re going. The artists also drop a few lines about each track, giving us a peek into their creative mindset.

Sean Roman Q&A

Where Am I?

Right now, I am in the process of releasing an LP on my label Lately Bass. The title of the project is “Sweetboi”. I guess listening to this album would give you a good idea of where I am musically. I have been releasing music since I was about 19, and now I am about to turn 45. When I think back I realise I am lucky to have been able to have a creative outlet all these years. It’s like free therapy…which brings me to my first track by old school east coast hip-hop outfit Heltah Skeltah...

Where Am I Going?

I think my next steps are growing the label with my partner (Kelmo). Finding new talent that has yet to be discovered. Making more music with my deep house production partner Toronto Hustle (we have some releases coming out on WOLF and FREERANGE this year). I would love to also produce a live music project as well ☺. Anyways all this positive talk has got me a bit hyped…and my fav hype track at the moment (by fellow Toronto producer) Reagan Grey out on Wolf Music. (Shouts to the boyz over at WOLF, I see you Stu….)

Track (Now):
Therapy
Heltah Skeltah

“One of my fav tracks during highschool, a different take on introspection which I found cool. Love the eerie vibes…"

Track (Next):
Starlight
Reagen Grey

“Very talented producer from Toronto, releasing on a lot of the labels I have recently…Local Talk, Wolf…. She’s a great talent and I hope she has a big year!"
