Joe Romersa

Recognized in his teens for his talent with sound, Joe’s illustrious career includes working with many notable music industry greats. Joe’s first love has always been drumming but early on he branched out into sound engineering.

Joe’s talent as a voice artist would soon find him working in the world of anime. In 1994, Joe started engineering, voice acting, and ADR directing on Anime and Game projects, which led to his work on Silent Hill. In 2002, Yutaka Maseba and Haruyo Kanesaku at ZRO Limit Productions introduced Joe and Akira Yamaoka. The two musicians got together and jammed at Joe’s studio, Joe on his drums and Akira playing on Joe’s borrowed Strat and Line 6 amp. Their only communication was through their music until the translator came and they would discuss the Silent Hill project. Joe would go on to work as music supervisor on Silent Hill 3, Silent Hill 4: The Room and Silent Hill: Homecoming. Joe is the talent behind the song lyrics in these games. He also sings on “Hometown” and “Cradle of Forest.”

Joe can also be heard in fan favorites such as Cowboy Bebop as Abdul Hakeem, Trigun as Descartes, Street Fighter II V as Balrog, Rurouni Kenshin as Raiko, and many more dubbed series.
