Aroop Roy is a DJ, producer and label head, who joins the dots between electronic music and borderless organic sounds. From house, garage and techno to jazz, disco and global rhythms, his productions have become a mainstay across scenes and generations. He recently signed to Kerri Chandler’s Kaoz Theory and has forthcoming remixes for Basement Jaxx, Mr Scruff and Marcos Valle amongst many others.
As a DJ, Aroop’s sets are full of personality and infectious groove, effortlessly blending sounds from across the musical spectrum and consistently bringing magic to the dancefloor. His all night shows and ‘Aroop Roy & Friends’ series have been immensely popular and he has played some classic sets at the likes of We Out Here, Defected Croatia, Southport Weekender and Glitterbox.
Showcasing his skills as digger and tastemaker, Aroop's label - Vive La Musique - reissues and reworks rare eclectic sounds from around the world. From Caribbean Zouk and Congolese Rumba to French jazz-fusion and South African soul, the catalogue has been celebrated by tastemakers across the globe.
