2013 – 2022 :
The Soulful Era

Created in 2013, Laroze’s project initially took on soulful overtones. Very inspired by the Classic House of Chicago, NYC or Detroit, Garage, Acid-House and also Disco was able to release some records on labels like Let’s Play House, D.KO, or Flux. This first part of his career led him to play in NYC, London, Mannheim, Paris, and of course Bordeaux (his hometown). During this period, Laroze was able to share the stage with Kerri Chandler, Moodymann, Chez Damier, MCDE, Floating Points, Dan Shake, and Marcellus Pittman (among others). His music, very inspired by old-fashioned sampling and in the pure French tradition, has been remixed or played by artists like Andrès or Move D. But as for many artists, the COVID pandemic marked the end of a cycle for Laroze, who does not forget his origins, which he always likes to subtly include in his productions and mixes. This background and culture from the origins of our scene are not forgotten.
