Studies and professional career

During his early years, Roig studied Spanish guitar lessons with Emilio Gorrita, violin lessons with Josep Mª Alpiste, Alberto Licy and Josep Lluís Puig, harmony lessons with Pere Casas and Angel Soler and also attended a course of music language in cinema with José Nieto. Roig became a professional musician. He used to play the violin and the Spanish guitar in concerts of several singers, groups or orchestras.[2]

In 1979, when he was 22, Roig started his career as a composer, creating the soundtrack for Vida de perros, a short film directed by Josep Lluís Viciana.

Since the beginning of his career, Roig has collaborated many times with audiovisual director Josep Lluís Viciana as a soundtrack composer in well-known series like "Connie the Cow", "The Ugly Duckling" or "The Fruitties".[2][3]

Apart from the soundtracks, Roig has worked as a sound engineer and music producer in many music albums. His passion for music lead him to create Temps Record, a recording studio and record label located in Terrassa, Spain.

Roig has worked in more than 300 music productions as a sound engineer, music producer and composer. One of these produccions, Lídia Pujol's "Els amants de Lilith", was considered one of the 20 best music releases of 2008 by Womex.[4]
