ROININ
Roinin is an Irish-Italian producer, mixer, and artist shaped by distance, displacement, and sound. Born in Belfast, Ireland, he spent his early childhood moving between countries, living in Ireland until the age of seven before briefly relocating to Rome, Italy. Constant motion defined his upbringing, but music became the one fixed point—a language that remained familiar no matter where he was.
Raised in a home filled with instruments, Roinin was encouraged to explore sound before he understood it. His father, who once played in a band in Italy, kept music alive in the house, and records by Led Zeppelin, Prince, and Queen formed the backbone of his earliest listening. Outside the home, Irish radio introduced him to artists like Mika and Gorillaz, expanding his sense of melody and color. Later, after moving to California, he discovered R&B, hip-hop, and modern pop, sounds that reshaped his relationship to rhythm and storytelling. Mac Miller emerged as a defining influence—not just musically, but in the way vulnerability and experimentation could coexist.
Classical structure met instinct early on. Roinin played saxophone throughout his childhood in the United States until the age of thirteen, while simultaneously learning the language of digital production.
ARTIST BIO
By the age of ten, he was already working inside a digital audio workstation, teaching himself through curiosity and repetition. In fourth grade, while others learned how to type, he spent computer lab sessions making beats instead—leaving him fluent in sound, if not the keyboard.
Having moved repeatedly as a child, Roinin learned to translate emotion into music long before he learned how to stay in one place. His work reflects that history: genre-fluid, emotionally driven, and rooted in experimentation. Music is not just a craft for him, but a constant—something carried across borders, time zones, and phases of life, always evolving, always necessary.
At present, Roinin’s focus is on serving the vision of other artists—shaping records around their needs while leaving a subtle imprint of himself in every production. His sound is adaptable by design, built to support collaboration rather than overshadow it. While he has yet to release a solo project under his own name, that chapter is intentionally unfolding at its own pace. For now, he is driven by connection, collaboration, and the quiet accumulation of work that speaks louder than announcements.
