Since 2009, Roy Rosenfeld has been sharpening his artistic skills in electronic music, effortlessly blending diverse styles and genres of House music. Each of his creations showcases the consistently unique and recognizable sound that defines Roy Rosenfeld.

Starting out as a beginner DJ, he began his career as a resident DJ in a dance bar. He later expanded his reach, performing at larger venues like festivals and underground clubs in major cities. His passion for music and musical abilities quickly earned him recognition and a dedicated global following.

Roy Rosenfeld has established a successful music career by collaborating with several leading record labels in the House music industry. He has released tracks on "All Day I Dream" by Lee Burridge, including "Lift of Love”, "Honey”, "Rumbala”, and "Simi”, to name a few. He has also published his music on Guy J’s "Lost & Found" Records, where one can find "Phase" and "Force Major" EPs, among others. In addition, Roy has released well-known musical works under Guy Gerber's imprint "Rumors," including the track "No Drama" and a remix to “Rainchecks In Montreal” by the label boss. His back catalog includes music on Sebastien Leger's label "Lost Miracle," such as “Toco/Sanga Dance”, “Milongi”, "Hypnosa De La Rosa" and "Tuti" EPs, which feature collaborations with Sebastien himself, including the tracks "Creme" and "Cherry On Top," both have become instant classics.

Throughout his career, Roy has created several iconic works, including “Epika”, a collaboration with Guy Mantzur, released on the legendary “Kompakt” Records and regarded as one of the greatest anthems of 2015. "The Biggest Heart," released on Lee Burridge's label "TRYBESof" in 2019, took some dance floors by storm, capturing hearts globally, and became a standout anthem of that year's “Burning Man”. To kick off 2023 with a bang, Roy released "Kala" on the highly regarded label "VOD." The track received immediate support from major industry figures like Solomun, Keinemusik, and Adriatique and quickly climbed to the top of Beatport's charts, receiving worldwide recognition and airplay.

Having many top hits in the sales charts, winning contests and awards, and collaborating with some of the most respected artists, had all gained Roy massive recognition and support from major superstars, such as Solomun, Black Coffee, Dixon, Keinemusik, Lee Burridge, Guy Gerber, Maceo Plex, Richie Hawtin, Laurent Garnier, Michael Mayer, Guy J, Hernan Cattaneo, John Digweed, Luciano, Stephan Bodzin, Joris Voorn and many others. The list even goes on to Tiesto, Armin Van Buuren, Deadmau5, and Groove Armada.

In addition to his production accomplishments, Roy successfully balances a hectic DJ schedule. In 2018, there was a global increase in demand for his unique sound, resulting in multiple participations in several “All Day I Dream"
events in Ibiza, Mykonos, and Dubai. This was followed by a huge interest in the US. He then performed at different massive festivals including Tomorrowland in Belgium, Zamna in Tulum, We Are Lost in Buenos Aires and Amsterdam, All Day I Dream in the US, Warm Up in London, Return to Rio in Sydney, Warung in Brazil, Marvellous Island in Paris, and more.

In early 2020 Roy started his new events production called “No Drama”, a small but highly successful dance-music event launched in Tel Aviv. Despite its modest size, the event attracts a dedicated crowd of music lovers and dance enthusiasts, who come together to enjoy a day & night of a musical journey. With a lineup of top local and international DJs, “No Drama” has quickly established itself as one of the hottest dance-music events in the city, known for its relaxed and fun atmosphere, great music, eye-catching decorations, and fantastic crowd.

Roy's fervor for music and unwavering ambition have established him as a distinguished figure in the music industry. He is constantly pushing the boundaries of house music and stirring the hearts of others with his unique sound. Whether he is commanding the stage at a packed venue or honing his skills in the studio, Roy remains steadfast in his dedication to his craft and bringing joy to others through his music.

“These days there are plenty of genres and styles within the electronic scene, which cause our minds to be fixated / square and stuck into the “rules” of those music genres. We can always pursue those styles and learn from them a lot, but always keep a warm place for our unique sound and style. We need to preserve and protect the uniqueness and specialties of each one of us. Do not let it run next to you. I believe this is the way to success”. Roy Rosenfeld.
