The early career stages have taken off well for Arun, making an influential name in Hong Kong,
and building up a reputation for playing upfront and quality house music. His style has
developed into what is highly sought after by prestigious venues in the city – he is able to
take his crowds through journeys of Afro-Latin influenced grooves to a peak of deep, tech
and melodic progressions, all framed by jackin’ beats and basslines.
Known to create a live and vibrant atmosphere with his music, it doesn’t matter whether Arun
plays at a club, lounge or open-air gig; he is always able to personify his musical presence
with an audience, bringing out the essential groove in anyone.
From 2007 onwards, Arun started to travel around China performing at venues in Zhongshan,
Jinan, Guangzhou, and Shanghai. An invitation to Elevate (India), voted 35th best club in
the world by DJ Magazine, followed soon after. In 2009, Arun made three visits to Thailand
for the Edition Festival w/ Sandy Rivera and Bodyrox, weekends at QBar and for the S3QUENCE
Festival w/ Armin van Buuren.
He has graced the decks for prestigious events like Soul Heaven, Hed Kandi, Ministry of Sound
Sessions, Renaissance Digital Asia Tour and Funky 4 Love, and has the opportunity to play alongside
international DJs such as Paolo Mojo, Alex Botar (Diva La Disco), Andy Warburton, Luke Neville,
Dennis Christopher (Beatfreakz), Dylan Barnes (Mutiny), Andy Norman, Patrick Hagenaar,
Lewis Boardman, Charles Schillings, Sandy Rivera, Bodyrox (Nick), Bopstar, Ko Kimura, ATFC and
voted no.1 DJ in the world - Tiesto. 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,
Drop, Solas, Volar, W Hotel, Home and the trendy Evisu Baru. Other events include performing for an
Andy Warhol Exhibition, 42 Below Vodka, Tequila Patron’s party and at the Asia World Expo Arena this summer.
Since 2008, he has been busy juggling his life between the office and the night-scene; at Entertaining Asia,
he manages bookings, corporate clients and venue music policies during the day before he shifts into night-gear.
Catch Arun playing every Thursday from 12-3am at HOME (Hollywood Road) or at FINDS every Friday.
