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.

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]

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Film score</span> Music written to accompany a film

A film score is original music written specifically to accompany a film. The score comprises a number of orchestral, instrumental, or choral pieces called cues, which are timed to begin and end at specific points during the film in order to enhance the dramatic narrative and the emotional impact of the scene in question. Scores are written by one or more composers under the guidance of or in collaboration with the film's director or producer and are then most often performed by an ensemble of musicians – usually including an orchestra or band, instrumental soloists, and choir or vocalists – known as playback singers – and recorded by a sound engineer. The term is less frequently applied to music written for media such as live theatre, television and radio programs, and video games, and said music is typically referred to as either the soundtrack or incidental music.
