It's Friday Night, and that means time for some electronic dance music from the likes of our Maskerade line up! Introducing our Maskerade line up in alphabetical order from tonight on, starting with DJ Ajay RAW!
DJ Ajay Raw is one of SXM’s top ranking house DJs with an eclectic style of house influenced by his Indian Bollywood roots mixed with the Caribbean island heritage, and topped with the European Dutch & French culture of his home... St. Maarten/St. Martin.
If beaches are the one thing that St. Martin is known for, you better believe Ajay Raw, with his enticing music style, will be the next thing this beautiful Island will be known for! Ajay Raw has made people thrill over his sound at parties all around the USA, Europe and the Caribbean.
Exposure to an eclectic combination of Disco & funk and synth-infused 80s music, in his early childhood, most definitely laid the foundation for his eternal love of tribal, deep and progressive house. Besides this, Ajay Raw ended up with quite a mixed spectrum of house music influences from Roger Sanchez, Carl Cox, Erick Morillo, John Digweed, Paul Oakenfold and Sasha, to Black Coffee, Lee Burridge, Matan Caspi, Sebastian Leger, Sam Shure and Luciano. Today, this translates into sets where he infuses together all the pieces of music he loves best: melodic, organic house with jacking backdrops, groovy basslines, and occasional sexy vocal hooks… all on top of an afro house beat. Tours in Ibiza and Tulum are shaping the rest of his DJ life by adding a touch of Balearic feelings and Bohemian vibes to his musical journey and lifestyle.
The future is looking bright now in 2021 for DJ Ajay Raw with new releases in the pipeline and an Asian tour in the works, you can be sure to hear more about him in the near future!
