Roger Sanchez on the future of dance music and how to make it as a DJ

ROGER Sanchez has earned his place in dance music history through a glittering career spanning three decades.

The house music pioneer continues to delight fans the world over. He has always stayed true to the sounds that he believes in, from the proper house music he is most famous for, to the darker, techier sounds of his S-Man alias. His experience and ability to identify emerging sounds and trends is invaluable to the ever evolving electronic music, club and festival scene.

Roger will be sharing and speaking about the business aspect of the industry at the debut in Birmingham this weekend. The conference, curated by founder Danny Savage, provides the opportunity to learn from some of the finest thinkers within electronic music and serves as a networking platform to engage and connect with other aspiring artists aiming towards a career in the electronic music industry. Other speakers include Brandon Block who will be speaking about goal mapping and ’s Grahame Farmer who will be talking about content creation and strategy.
