In 1990, JoVonn exploded on to the Dance scene with his second release, “Turn and Runaway” on Warner Bros. Records, which reached number 10 on the Billboard chart. Since then JoVonn has produced more than 200 records in the Dance, R&B, Hip-Hop, and Neosoul genres, but his true love is Dance music. To JoVonn, Dance music is more than just another genre. It is a feeling, an emotion, a passion. He compares its feeling to Gospel saying, “It’s spiritual”.

Some of JoVonn’s more recent Dance hits include “Old Man Groan”, “Jurassic House”, “Circle Dance”, “He’s More” (feat. Carolyn Harding), “Set It Off-Remix” (feat. Strafe), “Djoon” (on UK Basic), “Something About Dis Love” (feat. Carol Sylvian) & “Praise” (on WestEnd Records), “Don’t Waste Your Time” (feat. Stephanie Cook) & the “Spirit” album (on Track Mode) and countless others. He has had the opportunity to produce for some other greats such as Kenny Bobien, Toni Smith, and Sabrynaah Pope just to name a few. JoVonn is not only a master at producing Dance music; he also has many Hip-Hop, R&B and neosoul titles under his belt. Not to mention independent movie scores and soundtracks.

In addition to being an internationally renowned producer and club DJ, and while wearing his other hats as a singer, song writer and musician, JoVonn, founded his first Dance label, Goldtone Records, in the early 1990’s. His latest Dance record label ventures, NextMoov Records and NextMoov Traxx, are dedicated to bringing the deep, soulful Underground sound into the new millennium. JoVonn has accomplished this with his trademark gritty sounds, hard kicks, phat bass lines and jazzy chords. As for what’s on the horizon, keep an eye out for BaseRoom Entertainment, JoVonn’s Hip-Hop/R&B label.

A native of Brooklyn and current resident of Queens, JoVonn has been active in the music scene since the age of 10. Supported by his mother, a keyboard player; and father, a guitar/bass player, who were aspiring R&B singers; he was nurtured with a solid musical foundation. JoVonn began his ongoing career as a Hip-Hop DJ at the age of 14. He started out spinning records at block parties, and continues playing for birthday celebrations, proms and other social events. JoVonn was introduced to Dance music by hanging out in such Brooklyn clubs as Sapphires, Club Saturn, and Club Serene. In his later years, clubs such as the Loft, the Choice, Snobbusters, and Zanzibar, solidified his commitment to Dance music.

William Rodriquez III, born in 1980 was already collecting 45’s by age 4. His style of djing, producing, remixing and creating beats was influenced by the various sounds of music he was listening to at this young age from his parents and family. His dad introduced him to the underground sound of Cerrone, The Blackbyrds, Brass Construction, Gino Soccio and Loose Ends. His mom introduced him to Donna Summer, Boz Scagges and Stevie Wonder. By 1990, he learned to play the keyboard by ear and was introduced to the sounds of Hip Hop by his brother playing music by NWA, Boogie Down production, Kwame and EPMD. During this time he also enjoyed the sound that New Wave music created. This rich musical background influenced Will to make his own beats with two tape decks and his keyboard. By 1992, he got his first turntables and was introduced to the sound of deep house. His cousin Victor played music by Groove Committe, early Strictly Rhythm and Nervous Releases., This vibe had a lasting impression on William and he was soon playing his first gig at age 11, and for the forthcoming years made a name for himself in the LA scene, spinning both hip-hop, rare groove and house at underground clubs and partys. Will’s music production was also taking off, after updating and advancing his studio set up he quickly found a groove that has stunned the world over. His debut release Take me to a Place was signed by Frankie Feliciano for his critically acclaimed Ricanstruction Label. This was quickly followed by a string of remixes for Sole Channel NYC, Home Recordings in Toronto, Mn2S in England and Uk Basic in London – rocking dancefloors and radio waves wherever they were played. Will is now hot property, and finding his production and DJ skills in high demand. Listening to the sounds of Blaze, DJ Spinna, Mr. V, Alix Alvarez, Osunlade and MAW only encourage Will to create more music and push more boundries.
