Bio
For Roland Bartha, house music connects the DJ booth, the studio and the parties he organises. Under the Pray For More name, his productions range from vocal and soulful house to disco-led, jackin’ and percussion-heavy club tracks. An Es Paradis residency between 1988 and 1992 gave him an early foothold in Ibiza, followed by remix work for Exoterix and Nootropic and releases through Subrosa.
After returning to Austria in 1993, Bartha combined production with promoting house events and working with X-tended Records. His later Mjuzieek venture and the I Love Mjuzieek radio collaboration with Jules Little extended those relationships between music-making and DJ culture. Vocals remain an important part of the project, from work with Latasha Jordan to his interpretation of Mjuzieekal Freedom with Barbara Douglas. More recent Con Calma material includes Sunset Strip and Sunset Ashram, while his own DJ edits revisit songs such as Candi Staton’s Young Hearts Run Free.
