LOCOMOTIVE DISCO Presents: Aroop Roy & Friends
This March, dance-floor maestro Aroop Roy brings some of London’s finest selectors to deepest Hackney. Making sure we’ll all be throwing shapes well into the wee hours.
Aroop Roy is a producer, musician and label head, who joins the dots between electronic music and borderless organic sounds. From house, disco and techno to jazz, funk and Afrobeat, he has enjoyed universal acclaim.
Like his productions, his sets are full of personality and style and have earned him a growing reputation as a uniquely gifted DJ. Fully booked through to summer 2023, Aroop is enjoying huge momentum with headline sets at Fabric, Printworks, Defected Croatia, Hi Ibiza and Gilles Peterson’s Worldwide Festival all in the diary as well as being invited for a B2B tour by the legendary Mr Scruff who describes Aroop as a ‘ridiculously skilled selector’.
Special Guest DJ: Joe Goddard
A true man of the seven trades: DJ, producer, composer, member of Hot Chip and of The 2 Bears, Joe Goddard is UK music royalty and needs little introduction.
Aroop and Joe played a mammoth 6 hour B2B secret warehouse set in 2022, moving from disco and house, to Afrobeat, hip hop and jungle. Needless to say, they decided they had to do it again!
