Roger Goode - Celebrity DJ - Johannesburg
 

Roger Goode is a South African DJ who rose to local fame for his first single "In The Beginning", which featured on 5FM's Top 40. This later led to him being signed up with a local dance record label, SheerDance, under which he released his first album, Coming Up for Air in 2001. 

"In The Beginning" prompted Purple Eye Records to approach Goode, who allowed Ferry Corsten to remix the track, which went on to the UK Singles Chart (#33, 2002) and MTV's Music Video Chart. At 21, Goode was signed to Pete Tong's London Records, who promoted "In The Beginning" in the Buzz Chart, and showcased the track on Danny Rampling's Weekly Top 10. 

Goode performs most Saturdays on 5FM's evening dance segment, The Saturday Surgery.

The man who has success surpassed the industry’s stereotypical standards and emerged as one of the most influential and respected DJs in and around South Africa, by effectively revolutionizing the way today’s music is approached.

He crosses the boundaries of race and age with a musical approach that blends urban upbeat with a new social culture which appeals to all genres including techno rock, house trance metal and new school funk that brings the underground and high society together in a symbiotic dance of mutual acceptance.

Its no surprise that back in the day Goode was passionate about music, recording jingles at the age of 8 and a self taught pianist at the age of 10, he proved to be a strong contender from the start. Combined with his early musical and computing knowledge, he slaved away and like so many other hopefuls spent his time making recordings and sending demo tapes to radio stations and recording labels across the country.

Unlike so many however, Goode got quick recognition and was spotted by Sheer Music. His work with the song ‘In the Beginning’ dominated the charts and led to Goode being signed by Pete Tong’s London record company which later led him to start working on the weekend electronica shows on National youth radio station 5fm.

So where does the surgeon of spin get his inspiration from? “Everywhere, everything, everyone.” As he says himself, “it’s pulled from the rich heritage and diverse roots found all over Africa”, and this combined with Goode’s faithful following of both national and international fans, contributes to his award winning success.

These days you can catch the “Raj-mahaal’, in clubs all over South Africa, broadcasting his show from Ibiza, or on the coast at an exclusive party destination where his unique approach and passion for music combine to offer a night you won’t forget.

Just incase you are new to the scene, tune into the ‘Roger Goode Show’ on Friday nights (7 -10 pm), and Saturdays for the ‘Saturday Surgery’ (7 – 10 pm), to hear the master of Party Karate and his entourage of characters spin the wickedest beats on air.
