In the late 1980's when the music world was being transformed, entrepreneurs Gary Salzman & Joe Koppie formed Big Management, an innovative and revolutionary company. With the music industry growing and dance music making its move into the main stream, there was a void in the area of professional management for new artists, especially where DJ and producers were concerned.
Big Management was the first company to tour their DJs through Europe as "DJ Artists". This was the brainchild of Gary Salzman. By having the DJs play their own music, they would develop a following loyal to their sound. Mr. Salzman started this with Tony Humphries and Todd Terry, and continues today with Jason Nevins and Ray Roc.
Over the last 16 years, Big Management has evolved into Big Management & Entertainment, a full service music and entertainment company. We have expanded our focus to promotions, A&R consulting, and assisting both independent and major labels with their dance and mainstream projects. BM&E is also involved with BMG publishing worldwide signing and developing new writers in dance/pop music.

"I used to get on the
piano and just copy
what the teacher
played straight off"
Ray Roc - a.k.a. Ramon Checo - has been a crucial force on the New
York dance scene for nearly fifteen years. A legendary
editor / DJ / remixer / producer / scenester, he has worked with (and
produced/remixed for) many influential and respected artists, from
underground luminaries like Todd Terry, Juan Kato, Davidson Ospina,
JohnNick of Henry Street Music, Micheal Moog, DJ Pippi and WT,
Farley and Heller and Mark Wilkinson of Kidsound, through to
household names such as Sheena Easton, New Order, Cher, Deborah
Cooper (of C & C Music Factory), Rocky (of X-press 2), Tony Moran
and Albert Cabrera (of Latin Rascals) and Latin Pop Stars Proyecto
Uno.
While many beatmakers routinely claim they were making music before
they'd moved onto eating solids or tying up their shoelaces, in Ray's
case it's true - well, almost. Growing up in Queens, many of Ray's
family members were involved in music. His uncle, a singer, recorded
an album with late, great Latin superstar Tito Puente. His cousins were
DJ's in the 70's who had expansive collections of disco, funk and R&B.
Ray himself started taking piano lessons at the tender age of eight.
"I used to get on the piano and just copy what the teacher played
straight off" recalls Ray. "She said I had a good ear and should carry
on taking lessons but after four years I got bored. At that age I wasn't
focused on being a musician or anything, I just wanted to create music
on my own. We had this family house in Queens called the Big House
and every weekend our whole family would congregate there. It was
ritual. We had this big old basement for us kids to play in while the
aunts and uncles drunk their asses off upstairs. We would get together
and jam; me on piano, cousins on the turntables, female cousins
singing, others playing congas. It wasn't a recording session by any
means but it was a lot of fun."
