Biography
Robs enthusiasm for dance music started in the early 90s with an addiction to Hardcore, Gabba & Bouncy Techno. He was influenced heavily by Stu Allan and Dj Sy. He started collecting vinyl and (bedroom) Djing in 1995. Rob was addicted to Turntablism and Scratching and used to practice for hours every day, he encorporates this into his sets today. After years of practice, in 1997 he got his first gig at an under 18s alongside schoolfriend and ex Ultrabeat member, Ian Redman. In 1998 Rob Played 'North' @ The Void in Stole On Trent with another close friend and ex Drome Dj, Forze.
This was Robs last ever Hardcore gig as he was now becoming interested in the style of House music that was coming out of Holland, Spain & Germany from artists such as The Klubbheads, Mark Van Dale vs Enrico, Brooklyn Bounce & Sm Trax. In his hometown of Liverpool, 'Club051' was championing this style, and encorporating a unique blend of Trance, Disco, Hard House, Funk & Piano House throughout the night. This influence still stands true to Robs Dj sets now.
