Oh it was you. I remember it everywhere in 96. Still heard it everywhere in 97 in the hot summers.

Followed by Dj Quicksilver.

Sad news to wake up to today, he was a big influence of mine in the 90's and was one of the reasons I started producing my own music. Cancer is such a terrible disease.

Damn, he was huge back in the day. I loved his stuff, and Children was a big personal favourite.

Gutted.
I was mad for that track when I first heard it on Platipus Records Volume 2 in 1995. I was (and still am) hugely in to the trance scene.

Just sat with a beer, put children on spotify, closed my eyes and really zoned out after a hard day. Bliss

RIP

It is kind of unreal thinking back to 96 and thinking of that hit Children then realising I was still in school.

A real shame. My Dad introduced me to his Dreamland album.

Agreed, it was on Gatecrasher Red i believe.

I loved one and one too with Maria Naylor too.

I was shocked when i heard this news this morning, he was a big part of my early trance years and probably was the artist that started my Trance obsession.

RIP Robert, your legacy will live on always.

RIP dude. Very memorable music.

C.R.A.Z.Y · 10 May 2017 at 21:20

Very sad news, way too young :-(

The dream version was my favourite:

Fable was an epic track also:

Holy crap I cant believe all of that was 1996, there goes the rest of my night watching "REMEMBER" videos...

=XDC=FluphyBunny · 10 May 2017 at 21:37

So sad loved a few of his tunes

I was at uni, and I still feel old!

C.R.A.Z.Y · 10 May 2017 at 21:46

This is a pretty good modern remix of his biggest hit Children. (Not too shabby video either! )

Street · 10 May 2017 at 22:33

Gutted! I've got Children on vinyl somewhere!

Django x2 · 10 May 2017 at 22:35

I loved children and one and one. Some of the first music tracks I was looking forward to playing with my new 6x9 rear parcel shelf speakers when I could drive! RIP

Somewhere? You should know exactly where your vinyl is

No warp on mine though

Django x2 · 10 May 2017 at 22:49

It's so strange when something like this happens and they had one major and a few minor good hits. I can exactly remember what I was doing at the time, with my girlfriend of the moment....I might look her up, she's probably a right fat munter now...
