About Robert
In his own words, Robert Owens has been making house music since ‘before house had a name’.

He is one of the most distinctive, coveted and prolific voices in the genre.

He has an illustrious career that started in the late 80s in Chicago and has since produced some of the greatest tracks house music has witnessed.

He is responsible for era-defining classics such as ‘Tears‘ alongside Frankie Knuckles and Satoshi Tomiie, ‘Bring down the Walls’ with Larry Heard as part of Fingers Inc.

Robert has created seminal records which you can comfortably bet will have a place on any house head’s all-time favourites list.

After setting the standard during house’s formative years, Robert has remained at the forefront of the genre, building an extensive discography of solo projects, as well as a catalogue of collaborations which reads like an electronic music hall of fame – Masters at Work, Jamie Jones, Soul Clap, Catz ’N Dogz – the list goes on.

What has set Robert apart throughout all these releases is the raw emotion and passion he delivers into each vocal take, providing an uninhibited human touch to everything he works on.

Robert’s unique live performances continue to deliver a message, spellbinding audiences across the world with distinctive DJ sets embellished by his live vocals – a format which pays testament both to his talent as a singer, and his extensive depth of musical knowledge and selections.
