Verified profile

Rafa Rumble is my open format alias. With nearly 15 years of DJ experience, I've spun tracks across the globe, from Ibiza to Miami, Rome to London, Phuket to Bahrain. Graduated from an Italian DJ academy in 2007, I've performed at various venues, preferring intimate bars, hospitality venues and corporate events, where I cherish connecting music with the crowd. Proudly Italian, I'm based in South West London, ready to travel for events. Reliability and professionalism define my approach. As a self-taught producer, my tracks feature on respected labels and enjoy support from industry giants. My sets span house music and its sub-genres including Ambient & Chill out, Afro rhythms, Pop & RnB, Nu Disco, Classic Disco, 70'-80'-90', Latin house, and electronic dance music to cater to diverse audiences. Every performance is unique and customised to the events and the crowd needs, aiming to mix old and new tunes to make it successful for everyone.

Rafa was super professional and initiated to meet before the event to go through our taste of music. He also helped source a microphone and turned up early to make sure smooth running of the event. He liaised with the event manager directly. We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ for our event and would definitely recommend Rafa.

Rafa set up so quickly and communicated really thoroughly so I felt reassured he had everything all in hand, when he arrived he made everything easy and straight forward for us. He was flexible with us and helped coordinate at the end for the swap over to our own playlist. The music choice was spot on – really well suited to the environment and I could see he was adjusting through out the event as the mood changed. The members really enjoyed themselves and I will be recommending you to anyone looking and keep your details for any future events. Thank you Rafa!

We had Rafa playing for our private event and it was a great success! He is very professional and played a nice selection of classics, ideal for different moments of the night. More importantly, we had tremendous energy for the dancefloor! Recommended

I've booked Rafa for my event in Liss at the Village Hall and he put together a brilliant production with powerful speakers and plenty of lights effects. He performed an excellent set and we were very pleased, highly recommended.
