Evolution- Everybody Dance (Deconstruction, 1993). Before becoming one of prog's iconic artists Evolution hit it big with their remake of Chic's 'Everybody Dance'. Was so big it made it onto Top Of the Pops even! Respect!

Rob Warner - DJ, producer and A&R
bio...Rob began DJing in the early 90s after a few of years collecting records and having become addicted to dark rooms and loud music. His early influences slanted towards the American garage/house sounds of Blaze, Ten City, Steve 'Silk' Hurley etc and later Tribal America, Sex Trax, Strictly Rhythm etc - mixed with European artists/labels like Eon, Leftfield, Njoi, Guerilla Recs etc. Over 16 years later the music has changed but the vibe has stayed the same - deep, bumping, twisted music for the dance floor. Future Garage for short!
Rob's DJing style reflects his diverse influences and a famous passion for finding dark, strange and sexy bombs which aren't being thrashed by everyone else. His sets are futuristic but still have a classic vibe, and always aimed at the dance floor.
"When I DJ I like to mix things up - from deep house to garage to tribal to futuristic tech-house and funky techno - mixing the funky with the dark, the mellow with the driving."
Rob has performed at hundreds of events and been resident DJ at the most celebrated clubs in New Zealand since the early 1990s - The Box, Redzone, Calibre and Crowbar. He has played on events in Singapore, Hong Kong, China, Australia, Japan, Malaysia and Thailand. In 2004/5 he was resident DJ at the 64th floor Distil Bar at State Tower in Bangkok. Venues he has played at include Singapore's Attica Too, Hong Kong's boutique Evisu bar/club, Bed Supperclub Bangkok, Laris - Shanghai and more - including playing extensively throughout Asia on events for 42 Below Vodka including the renowned 42 Below Silent Discos.
Rob has also been a support DJ on dozens of tours to New Zealand for clubbing brands including: Global Underground supporting Danny Howells (three times), Deep Dish, Steve Lawler & Nick Warren; Renaissance alongside Satoshi Tomiie, Sander Kleinenberg, Dave Seaman & Junkie XL. Other events have seen him DJ alongside Desyn Masiello, Sasha, Pete Heller, Terry Francis, Cass, Austin Leeds, Derrick Carter, Dan Kahuna, Lottie, The Sharp Boys, Phil Asher, DJ Sneak and many more.
Production
Rob's sets include many of his own re-edits/remakes - some of which have ended up in the sets of top DJs globally. He's done remixes for NZ groups Dub Asylum and Substax with recording partner Josh Webb. He has also been involved in producing compilation CDs with BMG Music NZ - conceiving and mixing the Full Throttle CD in 2003 which became a top selling local compilation with music by X-press 2, Stefano Greppi, Scumfrog, Death In Vegas, Faithless and more.
Not content with just playing music Rob is also a music writer/reviewer for various websites including Our House Magazine, WorldDJ.com and his own blog page. He is also an A&R man-on-the-ground for two US-based label projects.
