Originally from south London, DJ Robi Roka was exposed to many musical influences from a very young age, especially urban and dance music. His earliest performances were as a Jungle & Garage MC across pirate radio stations such as Flashback FM and Taste FM, performing under the pseudonym MC Rimes. It was working with these radio stations that Robi found his passion for DJing and has not looked back. Quickly learning to mix the old-fashioned way on a pair of Technics he went on to perform across a range of nightclubs in the capital.

As his career progressed, he began to branch out into performing across Europe, especially in the dance music scene, playing at ULTRA Europe Beachville 2019 and the famous ADE festival in Amsterdam. More notably however is his global presence, particularly across Asia, where he has performed at Songkran Water Festival and Spring Scream, in front of 20,000 people with Unite at Tomorrowland in Taipei, and has played at Elektro (Taiwan), Route66 (Thailand), Arena (Korea), and LIV (Philippines) to name but a few. He also hosts a monthly event with his brands, love2funk and Urban Asia, supporting the likes of Andy C, DJ Hype, DJ Rasp (UK DMC Champion), Sammy Bananas (Fool’s Gold), Matrix, and Digital.

As a music producer, in 2017, his skills saw him chart in the Beatport Top 10 with his track ‘Elevate’ supported by TOP100 DJs such as Ummet Ozcan, and then in 2021 Robi released “Sunset” on Universal Vietnam which was widely received and featured in one of the biggest EDM websites; WeRaveYou.

Now back on UK soil and joining the JW ranks, 2022 Looks set to be a blockbuster year for Roka, with forthcoming releases already signed with Smash generation, Teamwrks and NFT based imprint Purple Fly Records.

His high energy sets, comprised of all musical genres with personal re-mixes, mashups, and original tracks, keep the dance floor pumping and hyped all night. This, combined with his microphone presence makes for a high energy party atmosphere whenever DJ Robi Roka is behind the decks.
