DJ Rob was introduced to Pirate Radio when he was 14 and this inspired him to aspire to the artist he was listening to. The year after he was given belt drive turntables for his birthday and he started doing parties for friends with records bought from pocket money. He built up a jungle and Drum and Bass vinyl collection. Rob has played for a Pirate Radio Station called Eclipse FM.
In late 1997 House and Garage was being played in Clubs and Bars and since then he started to build up his collection of this music genre. He met friends through record shopping which led to producing mix tapes and a number of play outs around Croydon and South London.
