Rob is a gifted Dj who paints his sets with a classic sound, his knowledge of dance music has great depths and his helpful nature makes him a pleasure to be around.

​

Growing up in a household filled with 80s hits from Split Enz, Boney M, Sister Sledge, a love of music consumption was born. An older brother later guided that taste towards the sounds of early electronic crossover hits like MARRS 'Pump up the Volume', The KLF '3 am Eternal', Snap! 'The Power' and this helped form his fascination with early rave.

 

His DJ career began in 1992, attending local parties and the fascination of how/why the music never stopped, grew this interest led to buying vinyl, and discoveries of artists such as Ce Ce Peniston, Inner City, Kym Sims, and labels such as Tribal America and Strictly Rhythm meant that a personal sound was forming.

 

Taking influence and guidance from locals such as Andy Vann at Quaff Records who gave him his first club residency at Redzone (Hotel De Bretts), Simon Grigg at BPM whose suggestions steered him towards edgier artists, and Miles at Markbecks on Queen Street who introduced a young rob to dub techno and raw Detroit sounds.

Robs Dj career has been long and full of highs, but his standout moment is remixing a heroes and having it released on one of the all-time iconic house labels (Celeda and Danny Tenaglia "Be Yourself" - remixed with Shaveer) and this moment will not to be forgotten.

​

His sound can be described as hypnotic and percussive tussle between soulful, harder, and classic and futuristic sounds, and his approach to this mix brings all these elements together. In his own words...

​

"I was Inspired by the theme of "explorations", I wanted to span each corner of my passions - from future-jazz to vocal house, drum tracks, early dub techno and the freshest house. I created it in Ableton Live and many of the tracks are edited or overlaid with additional elements."
