Mark "P-LO" Roane began his musical adventure in the late eighties as a Deejay at nightclubs and house parties in the Norfolk, Va Beach area of Virginia. From these Disc Jockey roots, he evolved into the inevitable production side of music where he mastered the science of programing electronic drum machines and digital workstations and professional recording techniques. He eventually began to develop his own original Jazz infused Hip Hop and Atmospheric Dance Bangers and integrated them into his party performances to "test the waters". The overwelming crowd responses were all the inspiration He needed. P-lo chose to invest in his passion further and was able to build his own production studio. He finally had a place of his own to further manifest his creative vision. The music you are experiencing today is a reflection of that Vision!
