On December 7th, we’re proud to host veteran artist Roger Sanchez at The Roof of Superior Ingredients. Joining him is up-and-coming talent, VLTRA, Arturo Sanchez, Luna Mar, and Merc. For DJs and bedroom producers, the ability to hustle is often the most underestimated yet crucial factor in determining success. International DJ Roger Sanchez epitomizes this hustle. From humble beginnings in New York City, digging through old vinyl and spinning at house parties in Queens, to dominating dance floors and headlining festivals worldwide, Roger's journey is inspiring.

Roger's career began in the late 80s amidst the explosion of Hip-Hop in New York City. Embracing the culture as a b-boy and graffiti artist, he eventually transitioned to DJing, enthralled by the exquisite blend of Hip-Hop, House Music, and turntablism. In 2001, he achieved mainstream success with "Another Chance," which has since amassed over 35 million streams.

Throughout his career, Roger has remixed for artists like Michael Jackson, The Police, Diana Ross, Jamiroquai, Maroon 5, and No Doubt, winning a Grammy in 2003 for Best Remixed Recording. He was also a podcasting pioneer, winning the first-ever Best Podcast Award at the International Dance Music Awards in 2007. His radio show and podcast, Release Yourself, attracts over 20 million listeners globally.

Joining Sanchez on his rooftop duties is 

, known for their rising influence in house and tech-house. Starting their journey in 2012, they moved from early mainstream electronic inspirations to a deeper sound shaped by Palermo’s underground scene.

Their breakout came in 2021 and was in collaboration with Kyle Walker released on Lee Foss' Repopulate Mars label and led to their debut at Foss’ Ibiza showcase in 2022. 

In 2023, VLTRA gained further momentum with "Flowcito" on Loco Dice’s Serán Bendecidos, and "Legacy" on John Summit’s Experts Only, which reached #1 on Beatport.

Her sets blend old-school house influences—think Louie Vega—with modern afro house, afrotech, and tech house styles, showcasing her versatility and sharp instincts behind the decks.

Her debut release broke into the Top 50 Jackin' House chart on Beatport, signaling her arrival as a producer to watch. Luna has performed at top-tier events like elrow New York, Electric Zoo, and ARC Festival.

Roger has released music on influential labels like Strictly Rhythm, One Records, and Defected, while also supporting new artists through his labels Stealth and UNDR THE RADR.

Roger has returned to the studio, focusing on creativity with hits like "Dream on Me" with Ella Henderson. He celebrated the 20th anniversary of "Another Chance" with a re-release and a remix by Oliver Heldens, followed by an extensive UK and European tour. He oversaw an all-star remix package of his catalog, featuring artists like Josh Butler and ATrak. The following year, he released the single "Keep it Movin'" with Katy Alex and remixed Betoko's "Raining Again," continuing his impressive global tour.

Despite his achievements, Roger remains humble and true to his roots, embodying the spirit of never losing sight of where he began. With VLTRA, Arturo Sanchez, Luna Mar, and local talent Merc, this party will be one for the books! Don't miss out, let's dance.
