AROOP ROY

Aroop Roy is a London-based producer, musician 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, he has enjoyed universal acclaim as a producer and DJ. An eclectic digger and tastemaker, he has recorded guest mixes for the likes of Gilles Peterson, Freerange Records, CO-OP, Jazz FM and BBC 6 Music’s Craig Charles Funk & Soul show. Aroop’s label “Vive La Musique” has focussed on quality over quantity, with reissues and reworks of rare eclectic sounds from around the world from Caribbean zouk and Congolese Rumba to French jazz-fusion and South soul.

Like his productions, his sets are full of personality and style and have earned him a reputation as a uniquely gifted DJ. In 2022, his warmup for Mr Scruff at We Out Here Festival impressed the legendary UK selector so much, that he invited him to stay on the decks to close the festival back-to-back. During 2023 he caused wild scenes at places like Fabric, Printworks, Defected Croatia, Hi Ibiza and Gilles Peterson’s Worldwide and We Out Here festivals. We can’t wait to see what he comes up with in Mallorca!
