controls_toggle

We are delighted to host this mix from Aroop Roy, one of our favourite artists for a long time now and it coincides nicely with the forthcoming release of his Brazil Breakdown pt.3 on Gamm records.
You’re always guaranteed high quality with Aroop’s releases, whether it’s a new Brazil Breakdown EP on Gamm, some remix/edit wizardry of Skyy on Basic fingers or some original productions.
Although well known for his remix/edit work, he has a lot of original productions in the pipeline too so watch this space.
Aroop said he wanted to give a nice taste of what he plays out usually, with some old and new and some big faves from the last year..
