Award-winning and chart-topping music visionary DJ/producer Jerome Sydenham is
deeply rooted in the music industry. As one of the youngest record executives in New
York City, Sydenham launched his career in the A&R department for Atlantic
Records moving onto East West Records. He worked with the likes of DAS EFX,
Snow and En Vogue (to mention a few).
During the 90s, he embedded himself in the immensely successful New York
house era holding down a weekly residency at the famed "Nells" Nightclub (NYC).
Expanding on this success, in 1995 he formed the illustrious and legendary Ibadan
Records. This pushed the Djing opportunities to a global level. As for his production
repertoire, the list is endless, working with the likes of Kerri Chandler, Joe Claussell,
Dennis Ferrer, The Martinez Brothers, Carl Craig, and Seth Troxler, only to name a
few. Fellow producer friend, Kerri Chandler, stated about his skills that “Jerome has
an impeccable sense of arrangement – heʼs up there with Quincy Jones on that!”
Besides a solid consistency in production and the ability to move between various
musical styles with ease, Jerome Sydenham has sustained a DJ career that has
spanned the globe. His focus today is resolute and he remains the same: quality
control on all fronts, a solid work ethic, and of course, keeping an open mind.
