Rob Rob Rob
As overwhelming as an elephant in orbit. As light as a feather floating down to Jupiter. A full bodied folky aftertaste, an electronic confrontation you know you will win. This is Rob Rob Rob from Sheffield.
Folk-tronica. A phrase that embraces the idea and authenticity of traditional song-writing, a phrase that is separable from popular music and a genre that relies on robotic machines and computers to create, warp and manipulate acoustic sounds and vocals which doesn’t usually result in music you would dance to.
Rob Rob Rob does this all relatively slowly, and to an electronic background which adds a necessary depth and warmth to raise this lushous electronica out of the acoustic dark netherworlds and up way above the canopies of the urban jungle we share with all sorts of dangerous animals.

New Take Your Medicine podcast early next week. I play music on a similar, or highly quality than that featured here. And it is music from all round the world. With me talking a bit between some of the tracks. If you have Itunes click here to subscribe to the podcast now - it’ll then automagically download whenever a new podcast is recorded by new (roughly every 3-4 weeks).
automagically may just be the best typo ever
typo?! The g and the t are indeed next to each - but, as much as I hate to spoil the illusion, I meant to write it. (Automagical: An automated process that you don’t, nor wish to understand)
Great work - thanks
