The electronic scene has lost one of its great voices. Ron Carroll, the Chicago-born singer, songwriter and producer, has died at the age of 57. While the circumstances of his death have not yet been made public, the news has shaken the global house community.
Known for his powerful, rousing voice, he made history with tracks that became cult classics. Among them is his collaboration with French group Superfunk on Lucky Star, which remains to this day one of the most iconic house anthems of the 2000s.
More than just a performer, Ron Carroll was a figure who could connect Chicago’s original culture with clubs all over the world. His stage presence, his energy and his generosity made him an unforgettable artist, even beyond his productions.
With his passing, electronic music loses a pillar. His legacy, though, will keep resonating in clubs and in our memories alike.
