A little info on ROBB

Robb lives in Huddersfield. He started to write music only last year having retired from his lengthy drumming career playing in a number of working rock bands and working in sessions. He became interested in electronic music because of a friend who was producing full time and DJ-ing. They taught him all the software and he learned to play keyboards in 6 months, proving he is a natural at this.

He came to the attention of The Fusion Room Records as a recommendation after hearing his music through Music Submit. We listened to his track "Exodus" and just knew we had to hear more. Signing a 5 year deal with us 18 months ago RObb has now become Mhyst's best friend and studio buddy. His album Hidden Within was produced in Mhyst's studio.
