From a humble beginning in NYC to multi-year residencies in Ibiza; from digging in dusty crates to headlining festival main stages around the world, Roger is truly a self-made man and dance music star. The crafting of Roger Sanchez, the DJ, started in the late 80s in Corona, Queens, whereas a young man he was enticed by the early roots of hip-hop sprouting all over New York.

Attending parties by the Bronx River and other jams as a break-dancer and graffiti artist, Sanchez was introduced to DJ’ing through friends, trying his hand in an organic environment where his creativity behind the decks flourished from a few singles into an ambitious catalogue of over two thousand original productions and remixes.
