Testimonials:

“

I’ve worked with Rob for around 10 years on various sync projects, from writing bespoke tracks for advertising clients to writing fully produced albums for us. Rob is not only a genuinely lovely person but is easy to work with, extremely talented, can deliver on fast turn arounds always listening and understanding feedback well, and is very reliable and accountable. Throughout my time knowing him I’ve seen him juggle multiple projects whilst not only writing, producing, performing and recording music but also in his live event productions. He has a flare working hard under pressure and is meticulous in his delivery.

Always a pleasure to work with!

My Story

I’ve been creating music and warping sounds for over 20 years now. I love the process even more than I did when I first started, and I am totally committed to making each new piece of work push the boundaries of what I have done previously.

Throughout my musical career I’ve been lucky to work with many incredibly creative and innovative people. From indigenous aboriginal tribes to iconic, world renowned recording artists, and everything in between. I’m always keen to get involved in exciting projects and work with new people – so if you’re reading this and are interested in working together, feel free to drop me an email.
