Dance with the sounds of the world as Aroop Roy takes you on a cross-continental journey through the lens of house, at the luxurious Night Tales.
Still riding from the high of his all-night set with Mr Scruff earlier this year, 2024 is Aroop Roy’s year, captivating audiences who didn’t know how much they really needed his killer combo of Latin jazz, worldbeat and house.
For his brand of dance, Aroop Roy looks to the rest of the world for inspiration. He has the foundational structural elements of house, a framework by which to adopt organic sounds, wherever he may find them. His remix of K.O.G.’s ‘Ebenezer’ is exemplary of his work, fine-tuning the beat to suit the dancefloor while emphasizing the tracks original spirit; not entirely reinventing, just readjusting, adding his own personality and flair atop an already flairful performance.
Now he’s going all-night at the grand Night Tales, a certified spot in Hackney that is beloved for its cheap tickets, easy going atmosphere, and unique venue design. And it’s just Aroop on the line-up, no supports, from 8pm til 3am. Hopefully you have the same endurance he has.
