Arun R is a DJ from Hong Kong. Arun has only been on the DJ circuit for a bit less than 2 years now. His style has developed into what has become a fresh sound for House music that is currently highly sought after by clubs and venues in Hong Kong. The niche factor is his varied and unique taste of music that influences his live sets – he is able to take a crowd through a journey of afro/latin-funk rhythms up to a peak of eclectic and melodic progressions, accompanied by jackin’ beats and basslines.

2007 turned out to be very fulfilling: alongside his day job as Events Manager for Entertaining Asia Ltd, he performed at several Hed Kandi and Ministry of Sound events, and closed the year with 3 weekly and 2 monthly residencies. An invitation to play at Elevate (India – Voted 35th Best Club in the World by DJ Mag) got him in the mood to travel and started played regularly in China (Jinan, Zhongshan and Guangzhou).

He has graced the decks for prestigious events like Hed Kandi, Ministry of Sound Sessions, and Renaissance Digital Asia Tour and Funky 4 Love, and has the opportunity to play alongside international DJs such as Paulo Mojo, Alex Botar (Diva La Disco), Andy Warburton, Luke Neville, Dennis Christopher (Beatfreakz), Dylan Barnes (Mutiny), Andy Norman, and Patrick Hagenaar. Arun has earned appraisal from some of the above names as ‘the perfect warm-up DJ’.

He has been invited to play at most key venues in the city, including internationally renowned M1NT, HK’s biggest club - Beijing Club, Drop, Solas, Volar, and the trendy Evisu Baru. 2008 promises to be even busier in Hong Kong – with several major events lined up for the year and new residencies both in the city and overseas.
