Catching the ears of the industry, Karuva’s productions have been aired on BBC Radio 1, BBC 1XTRA, Kiss FM, Dirtybird Radio and Toolroom Radio, featured by Mixmag and been the subject of two national TV interviews. Artists championing his music include Pete Tong, Danny Howard, Claude VonStroke, Roger Sanchez, Blondish, Mark Knight, Marshall Jefferson, Will Clarke, Todd Terry, Illyus & Barrientos, Rene Amez and Davide Squillace. Behind the decks, Karuva has enjoyed rocking UK clubs including Steel Yard, Village Underground, Tobacco Dock, The Arch, Lightbox, 93 Feet East and Basing House, Chinese venues including Galaxy and Ibiza venues including Bora Bora and Savannah (along with warm up sets for the likes of Yousef, Ramin Rezae and Amine Edge). Next up is a forthcoming live show - which will incorporate electric guitar, drums, slap bass and freestyle synths into his DJ sets. To kickstart your weekend, you can tune into Karuva's radio show, which is aired on Mambo Radio every fortnight.
