Worakls Discography

On July 31, Gray Area presents a rare opportunity to catch a 

 intimate headlining set in NYC before embarking on his 2022 Orchestra Tour in Europe. Presenting a unique and enthralling live set, it is the perfect soundtrack for a sunset inside Superior Ingredients’ climate-controlled rooftop against the panoramic backdrop of the NYC skyline.

Hailing from France, the DJ/producer Worakls (pronounced “warrackles”), né Kevin Rodrigues, was a piano prodigy beginning at three years old. With the backing of his equally musical family, his formal conservatory studies started at age six.

Fast forward to a life-changing set by Eric Prydz, which prompted an 18-year-old Woarkls to delve into electronic music rather than the traditional classical compositions in his background.


“I wanted to try electronic music when I discovered that the possibilities were infinite,” he says. Seeding inspiration from anything from the movie soundtracks of Hans Zimmer to dubstep dominator Skrillex, 

described Woarkls’ productions as “serious techno with a light touch.”

Worakls melds melodic progressive techno with the complexities of classical arrangements—he even toured with a full orchestra in 2019. The Sonate Records and Hungry Music imprints label boss describes his sound as “electronic orchestral” and that he thinks like a pianist when approaching producing.

“Writing for guitars, basses, drums, et cetera, taught me a lot of things,” he tells Gray Area. “When I decided that I wanted to bring orchestral and classical instruments into my music, I had to learn again, how to do it. Some instruments are very specific. You can’t blow in a trumpet for hours, for example, the guy has to breathe – those are the details I had to learn.”
