ROHAN KAPOOR


“There is music in my soul and soul in my music,” says DJ Rohan Kapoor, one of the cities new and upcoming DJs. At an early age of just 14, Rohan realized that music was his passion and the first time he ever saw a DJ perform, he knew what he wanted to do with his career. 

Rohan spun his first record as a full time DJ in 2007 at the age of 24. Prior to this he played music as a hobby before taking a two year break to complete his masters’ degree form the University of Bristol in the UK. 

Rohan’s style of playing music is quite unique. While he specializes in playing House, Hip Hop and R&B, and Retro, Rohan is capable at spinning wicked tunes across all genres and is capable of keeping a party rocking with ease. He does this by reading crowds and adapts his performance to suit his audience rather than what he feels like listening to. His music tells a story and takes people through a journey as the night progresses. 

He has also worked with the first ever Indian Internet Radio Station where he hosted a Dance Show and A Hip Hop n RnB Show as well. The station is called myopusradio. 

Rohan was also heard by the masses through his radio show called “BPM” on a station named “SPINN” on World space Satellite Radio where he showcased the latest and the best possible dance tracks from across the globe for a period of 2 years.

Rohan has also played alongside and opened for some of the biggest names in the world of dance music….its been a privelage to have performed with the likes of Matt Darey, Daniel Kandi, Wippenberg and Marcus Schossow, Myon n Shane,Niklas Gustavasson.

Currently Rohan has a fixed fornightly night at Pebble. This is his own property called Addicted to House, where the young trendy people of Bangalore city gather to dance the night away. Rohan also has set up a studio and is currently workin on his solo debut single.

With the positive response he has had this early in his career, one can be sure that there is going to be lots more to see of this budding DJ/Producer. There are bound to be much bigger and better things to come in the future. In his own words Rohan has said “I was born to do this so no matter what, I know everything will fall in place sooner or later.”
