The start in the end of 80's was in playground parties, when the tapes recorded from the radio and a few records bought by his mother opened the gates of a culture that was only beginning. Always ahead of his time, Roger is one of the most popular and respected DJ's in Brazil and the most prestigious DJs in Brazil. The aggressive style is the trademark of his DJ set with heavy energy sounds, perfect mix that can hypnotize the crown and a outsdanding carisma. The full-energy as a performer is real strong in every act of his DJ Set. It is really thrilling to see him performing live and it's impossible to be indifferent to him, even those who do not like his kind of music can get very impressed by his skills with such a outstanding performance full of technique and emotion. Everything a DJ can do with deck's and a mixer it's just fun for him. His sound is a long trip into a evolution mix with a unique mix of Trance & progressive, but make no mistake to underestimate his taste for music and don't get surprised to listen a bite of techno or Electro during his set. This man is not afraid of new sounds. His talent as a awesome turntableist is an extra tocuh and the crowd follows him with every mix, scratch or back-spin.

In his home country, he is a icon to a hole generation and every week, he reaches more than 200.000 listeners at his DJ Show at Radio Jovem Pan Fm, the bigest satellite radio station in brazil. On 2005 he won the as "Best DJ" on the annual ceremony of the DJ Sound Magazine Awards, the most importat in Latin America and his performance in big festivals like SKOL BEATS and CREAMFIELDS side to side with names like Tiesto, Fatboy Slim, Armin Van Buure, Ferry Corsten, Marco V and many more worldwide top artists.

All this conection to music also moved him to world of studios, where the DJ can finally create his own style and sounds. In 1998 he created his digital alter-ego named BADBLOCK and started to put in the mix his ideas… After a good time of work the results started to came up and some of these tracks were included in top seling compilations in the brazillian market. In 2007 he is back to the studios once again and his new tracks must be avaiable very soon. His outstanding talent was exposed to the world after his performance for 200.000 people during the Rio Parade in june of 2003, the biggest international parade in Latin-america. In December of the same year, he also produced and played at the first dutch event in brazil: Kremlin World Tour was a huge success with more than 5.000 party people and he shared the deck's with the dutch DJ's Don Diablo and Astrid. The next step in career was to move outside his home country borders, and so he did. During a his first international tour he reached Europe with huge success on his gig's in some of the coolest club's and events.

The music business is also in his target. The DJ feeling put him in the spot in one of the biggest companies on the music business: Sony Music. In 2004 he started his own company, so NRG Music & Management made it´s first steps. Recently, he just signed a deal with Maxpop Music to release a series of new products together with Armada Music, Armin Van Buuren´s own label and on of the biggest dance labels in the world. Always conected with the DJ Culture, Roger was invited by DJ Sound Magazine (www.djsound.com.br) to be a correspondent in Rio de Janeiro and also found some time to colaborate in one of the most popular websites in brazil (www.riofesta.com.br) where he makes some music and event reviews, putting on the net his point of view of the market. The end of this story is far away from the end, and a new chapter is writen every night, after every scratch, every mix… It's time to move forward and break the brazillian borders and show the world whow long can he go.
