Valiant Horizon Label Signs Dutch DJ-Producer Rodger Forrest

By: BWW News Desk Nov. 26, 2013

Valiant Horizon today announced that Rodger Forrest is the latest musician to join its artist roster. With a number of EDM recordings and European DJ performances already under his belt, Rodger is positioned to take the dance music world by storm. Influenced by many genres, he comfortably produces music in a number of spaces including electro, trance, deep house and progressive. In addition, Rodger's DJ work includes performances in Holland and on the Baeleric island of Mallorca right near Ibiza.

Rodger recently moved to Willemstad, Curacao after years of living in Breda, Netherlands - which happens to be the home also of two current DJ Magazine top 10 DJs Tiesto and Hardwell. So he certainly comes from a place that has an established history of cultivating top-notch DJ and EDM talent. With his current life in Curacao, Rodger is embracing his Euro music roots while intertwining them with his present country home where he currently has a DJ residence at Mambo Beach Club.

Working in so many areas of the dance music realm, Rodger has an interesting music production style where he may start off by playing a melody on his keyboard or piano and build from there to determine the style of music it may become - as opposed to at the start - which can make for surprising and striking results. From calm and suave synth lines to ear-pleasing trance and deep/electro sounds, Rodger produces a unique mix that is ripe for the dance floor as well easy electronic listening outside of the club world. Focused mainly in the deep tech/trance space, Rodger's first Valiant Horizon single "Blue Bay" is an intoxicating EDM gem set for worldwide release on November 26, 2013 via major online retailers including iTunes and Amazon.
