Roo takes you on a trip through her record collection with a focus on all things deep and soulful
About
Roo is a selector dedicated to unearthing and sharing roots-driven dance music. With a particular love for house, broken beat, boogie and electro, you would be pushed to find a mix which is not inspired by her admiration of soulful and deep flavours.
Roo’s collection of obscure 90’s and 00’s tracks has captivated audiences across the UK and beyond. She previously held a residency on Balamii and has played at the likes of We Out Here Festival, Bel Air Festival, Lost Horizon and Corsica Studios. She is also a regular at Bradley Zero's Rhythm Section parties and has supported Eliza Rose, Chaos in the CBD, OK Williams, Amy Dabbs and Carista to name a few.
In 2019, Roo met Manchester based Mystique which led to the creation of Shifting Spheres, a collective which platforms women, non binary and trans artists by providing free DJ workshops and production programmes. The same year she also launched the blog Halcyon Wax alongside her partner Oli Judd, with an aim to shine a light on underground music and culture through articles, reviews and events.
