Biografía

  • London based producer, composer and classical pianist. Label boss of Surach alongside co-owners Yll Matluma and Gorkem Ozkaynak. Member of the live techno duo Maker+Meyer. Previous resident DJ of London parties VOID and Ultraplay.
    First and foremost, London based Rob Meyer is a composer, producer and classical pianist. After developing a bug for music at an early age, Rob eventually went on to formally study music at the the Purcell School of Music and later at the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester. After spending years performing solo piano recitals and playing the guitar in various bands, it was an odd twist of fate that turned him onto electronic music and now, years later, he is actively involved in the underground electronic music scene as much as he is classical music, ambient and jazz. Influenced by everything from classical music and film scores to experimental electronic music, Rob performed live in the duo Maker+Meyer for several years (alongside fellow musician Jon Daou). Highlights have included a live set at Adam Beyer’s Drumcode warehouse party in 2010 and DJ sets at Fabric, Corsica Studios, EGG and Cable. As a long-standing resident for London parties VOID and Ultraplay, Rob has gained a vast amount of experience as a DJ, having played monthly slots at Cafe 1001 for four years running. Long six-hour sets are his specialities as they allow for the most expansive form of musical expression; something always key to the music Rob Meyer makes and mixes. Always incorporating his knowledge of harmony, texture and timbre from classical music into his electronic efforts, Rob’s formal training is what stands him apart from many of his contemporaries. Away from the dancefloor, Rob also composes music for moving image, and has worked on a number of short films, often concentrating on combining the classical element - orchestral and other acoustic instruments – with dubbed out electronic landscapes. Far more than just another producer, Rob Meyer is a rare thing in the modern age: someone with a deep understanding of musical form, structure and arrangement, and someone with the ability to implement that into a wide array of sonic styles and settings.
