"Refreshing, original talent is hard to come by at the moment, but there may be hope in 22 year old Rob J Madin. He is a musician from Chesterfield who writes and produces all of his tracks, and is multi-talented as he also plays guitar, does all the sythns, drum programming and vocals - with some help from others with horn sections and backing vocals included in some songs. All these sounds mixed together makes fantastic mixture of pop, rock and lounge music with a twist. It's fun, energetic and novelty, and all the songs are very well produced. Rob's influences include Elton John, Pulp and David Bowie, which reflects in his music as it seems quite 'Old Skool'. 'Amnesia du soleil' has an almost magical sound, and 'Someone Else's Mind' is refreshing and uplifting. So keep an eye out for Rob J Madin - a surprisingly unique talent."

Thank you for accepting. Everyone Wants Her (Now) is freaking amazing, love your synths, great mixing too all to enhance your great talent. The songs in your player really left me wanting to hear more of your stuff.
