Description:Originaly from Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Started djing in 1980 at age 16, playing school parties, weddings, school radio, and corporate parties. At 18, in 1982, started his everlasting successful dj career and has been doing this till this day.

Played mostly in Montreal, Laval, Toronto, Quebec, Ottawa, until 1992, then moved to Europe (Holland, Germany ) Played mainly in Germany, Holland, Switzerland, Belgium, Spain, Macedonia, Slovenia, USA, Mexico & Canada.


One main aspect of his personna and music style was always to play very upfront music, not being afraid to break frontiers and go into unknown territories introducing new sounds to diffrent crowds in a clever way.But also the flair to know when to play something for the crowd to get the atmosphere magical.

Holding the " Legendary status " in Montreal, for being a pionner for the Canadian Electronic music scene, since he was one of the first dj to play HOUSE MUSIC in Montreal (we're talking around end 86, beginning of 87), and then Techno in the 90's, being once again, a great figure by contributing greatly in starting the techno "rave" scene in Montreal, by first, travelling to berlin and getting the music, then being the first having the nerve to stick his neck out and play it.
Everyone, from the other dj collegues, to club goers, thought in the beggining he had completely lost it, playing this strange, crazy, fast electronic music. At the same time then started a techno night in a club (Saturn 6 )( Where Justin...from Justin Smart bar yes, did his first enhancing magic potions), playing that style of music ( Tekno-Acid-Hardcore-Breakbeat and the first few Rotterdam terror Gabber Funny records) and playing the first Raves( Solstice, and many more...), and, at the same time, still playing steady residencys in clubs.
Straight clubs, gay Clubs/events, mixed crowd...He did them all!
Now that calls for versatility and adaptivness.
He was also one of the first montreal local dj to export himself and start travelling the world doing his art by moving to europe in 93.

Before house music, he played, and beat mixed many diffrent styles of music.For example, disco, soul, or new wave was live played ( compared to the latter house/techno hybrids, using mostly a constant tempo ) compared to back then, one had to be quick and quite virtuose with the pitch control of the turntable to be able to adapt to the varied tempo of the live played tracks having to be mixed.

Style wise he basically played: Disco, Newbeat, Indie, Soul, Old rock, Pop, Wave, Electronica, Industrial, Acid, then all the house hybrids to tech house, tribal house, vocal house, had a big Big bassline speed garage phase, and went big through the french influenced looped disco phase, the minimal or micro house sound of Cologne, now montreal, and was always very influenced and loved most of the europeen trends coming from England 7 europe, and especially the whole german/holand/belgium/Scandinavian interesting techno sound.

Playing so many diffrent style of clubs and introducing the style of music he liked, while keeping the crowd dancing, despite sometimes, the initial non-understanding of the new trends by people and especially club owners, at the begining, everytime going through a new trend of new music, but always succeding at winning the hearts of clubbers, dancers, listeners, by exposing them to the new directions of the ever evolving electronic music, always making it a surprise and keeping it fun and interesting.

Great fun and entertainer, knowing how to rock a crowd at the right moment and take them to journeys makes him an experienced dj that can read a crowd and get them moving and screaming.

He may also be known for his writings for the music magazines: Streetsound Magazine (Toronto/NYC), Trance 5000 (Montreal), Loop & Raveline (both Germany).

He has Interviewed Orbital, Robert Armani, Miss Djax and The Acid Junkies, Speedy J in Rotterdam, and the one he's most proud of would be his exclusive interview with AFX TWIN (Richard James).

Robert also produces music and was one of the main producer and also co-owner of former:Glitterball / MirrorBall / High heels / Hard Heels record labels.He has done several remixes and official mixed compilations and had many other vynil releases on diffrent record labels.

Styles wise nowdays, Robert plays from house( tribal-disco-chunky jacking-acid-retro-80's-bootlegs-fun-interesting-experimental-electronic) to tech, to electroclash and all it's derivatives, acid house, micro house click minimal, or just normal house music.

Not afraid to play a quality "Hit" to get the crowd going, but always trying to have a good balance between fun known stuff for the crowd and new stuff.

But the music always evolves and changes with more or less of the different styles and flavors depending on the seasons, locations, rooms, parties, or specific style set announced for the different party's/clubs.


Though his strength lies in longer extended sets, for open minded crowds ready to be surprised, entertained, educated in a fun and easy way, and most, taken on a journey.

The main thing is about the vibe and getting a party atmosphere whenever and whatever it takes.
