About Exposure:
Exposure is a brand new event, started by Aroop Roy, designed to highlight talented up and coming producers in Tokyo. Having introduced the cdr feature to the absolute!! parties at Loop, he wishes to take the idea further and replace guest DJs with guest producers showcasing a variety of their works. There will also be plenty of open cdr time when we will play tracks brought by other music producers, so everyone is encouraged to bring their material. This is an open-minded event, so all genres are welcome. Most important aim is to meet each other, share ideas, and the hear tracks on a club system. Until now, there have been few opportunities for young producers in Japan to promote their music, but by working together and forming a community we can change this!

Ram Man

He makes peculiar and deep sounding electronic club music and at it's most ambitious it's gotta be other wordly and tunnel like.Influences are integral in my development, whether it be the groove and fever of Disco, the deep layers of electroica or the eccenticities of artists like Capatin Beefheart they all contribute towards the Style he hopes to achieve.
He got into producing through Art. And just like art, producing has been both an outlet and vehicle in helping to construct his vision.
