Roman Rofalski

**Roman Rofalski** is a German jazz pianist and keyboardist known for blending intricate jazz harmonies with electronic experimentation. A key member of the nu-jazz trio Khamsin (alongside drummer Leif Berger and bassist Andreas Lang), he’s helped shape their signature sound—mixing acoustic instrumentation with glitchy beats and global influences. When he’s not touring with the band, Rofalski flexes his solo muscles under the alias **Droff**, dropping remixes and original tracks like *Khamsin (Droff Remix)* and *dROFF Artefacts* that dive deeper into synth-driven textures and broken beats.

Trained at Berlin’s prestigious Jazz Institute, Rofalski’s technical chops shine in projects like *The Kapustin Project*, where he reimagines composer Nikolai Kapustin’s jazz-classical fusion. Recent releases like *Fractal* and *Loophole* showcase his love for geometric rhythms and genre-blurring soundscapes, while the *Abandon - EP* leans into moody, minimalist electronica. Whether hammering grand pianos or tweaking synths, Rofalski’s work feels like a love letter to jazz’s past and future.
