Jun 01, 2005 I bought Robert Miles cd Dreamland a couple of years ago, because I was just looking for something new to listen to. I never heard of him before, but man can I tell you. He is so very talented, and his style is not like any other DJ. The female vocalists, emotion, and the feel for it is done so perfectly.
Robert Miles – Organik

The record that emerged was a deeply personal and for Robert a cleansingly contemporary one. Darker, more leftfield and drawing on a far wider palette than anything which might have been envisaged at the close of ’23AM’, ‘Organik’ draws on the deepest exploration of his musical self and earliest influences thus far as well as reflecting to a certain extent the traumatic period from which he was finally emerging (as titles such as ‘Separation’ and ‘Release Me’ would suggest). All of this is further synthesised with the experiences of his recent travels. As Robert said at the time “I’ve seen and experienced a lot of different cultures and that has had an effect. It’s the interaction between European electronic music and other, more traditional sounds that fascinates me now.”

Robert Miles' real name is Roberto Concina.
He was born in November 3rd, 1969 in Neuchatel, Switzerland where he lived until the age of 10. Then his family moved to Fagagna near Venice.
He also used to have an apartment in London (he had to move because too many fans around him were bothering his neighbors). As one could not expect, Robert as a child did not show any interest in music. He prefered to have fun with his friends instead.
His parents Antonietta and Albino quite often took young Robert for sightseeing trips. He was a sweet child who did not create serious problems: the only thing he refused to do was playing the piano, the instrument that would made him famous many years after. His teacher tried everything in vain. It suddenly changed when he grew older.
He started to teach himself and became very good at playing the piano.Robert began DJing when he was 13. Since 1988 he has been a professional DJ playing mostly trance, techno and progressive. The beginning was not that easy: he tried to DJ in many Italian Clubs in various regions of Italy, not always with success.
This hectic experiences could discourage, however Robert Miles was not that easy to give up. After a few years he was playing at various clubs throughout northern Italy and by the time he was 22 he had become one of the most successful broadcasters in the region on account of his show on Radio Supernetwork.He started to pursue his dream to work in his own studio. This came true in 1990, when after saving money he bought second hand studio equipment: a couple of turntables, a computer, and a mixer.
Later on he completed with more advanced equipment. He produced several tracks for the Italian label Metrotraxx during that time ( Ghost in 1994, Oxygen EPin 1995) but none of them were noticed. His success story started when he started collaborating with another composer and mixes producer: Joe T. Together they produced the titles Soundtracks, Red Zone and also Children, but without the piano riff that later made the song so instantly recognizable.
Miles originally pressed up 1,000 copies of the 12-inch record back in the summer of 1994 and sold them all. In the meantime Robert Miles became A&R-manager of the J.T.Company Recording Studio.The Summer 1995 was a breakthrough in his career with the release of a dream version of Children. With it, the whole world discovered the dream music (also known as symphonic trance). He wanted to discover a new sound that would be the antithesis to the harder and more caustic beats prevailingin the Italian clubs. To be true, the style already existed on the Italian scene. Among the first creators of this style were artists like Adriano Dodici, Gigi d'Agostino, Leonardo Rossi, and DJ Gianni Parrini. This sensational new style was a mixture out of dance-beat and sentimental melody line.There are at least two interesting stories behind Children.
One suggested that it was a tribute to the children of Bosnia. (his father returned from a posting in Yugoslavia with harrowing stories and snapshots of the innocent youngsters suffering there). Another story suggested that he composed it after a teenager had a car-accident after he left the disco. Miles himself admits that both versions are real.More than 30 000 copies of Children were sold within 2 weeks after its release. However that was only the start. Children climbed to top position in the UK-Charts and Top Ten.
With over 900 000 copies sold it earned him Platinum-record in England, in Germany and in Switzerland. It went # 1 in Israel, in Italy, at MTV (for 9 weeks), in Germany, in Spain, # 2 in UK, entered top 40 USA. It earned him also a Gold records in Austria, France Ireland, Belgium Holland, Sweden and even Israel where it earned that title just from import.His next single, Fable, also had an extensive piano in it. Robert as a child liked when his mother was telling him bed time fairytales. Very oftenhis mother was very tired and her eyes were closing, but Roberto did not let her stop until he had fallen asleep. Fable featured the voice of an Americansinger: Feralla Quinn. It reached # 2 in Israel, # 7 in UK, and # 7 at MTV.In June 7th 1996, he released his debut album Dreamland which became an instant hit.
It was also released in the US, surprisingly just1 month from its original release. Both albums are exactly the same excepted the fact that some playing times vary from original and that there is one addition in the U.S. Release, a new track called One And One with vocals by Maria Nayler.
One And One was the forthcoming single, and it went #1 in Israel, #3 in UK, and #1 MTV Europe for 7 weeks.In the end of 1996 Robert Miles released a new version of his album, Dreamland- The Winter Edition. The new tracks were One & One and 4us, previously unreleased in album but which appeared on the One & One single. This album came matching the Christmas winter time.In spite of his success Robert remained a modest guy.
He never appeared on the videos because he thought that the judgment of him should come from his music and not from his face. He also wants to have his privacy secured and didn't have desires to become a TV star.Robert also showed his mixing skills when he released the compilation called DJ Robert Miles In The Mix. He presented a darker, harder and Urban Sound beyond his enormously successful dream house style. From Goldie's Drum&Bass anthem Inside City Life over the harmonic Track 7:22 by Saw D up to his own Fable, Robert Miles, presented hereas a DJ with energy, that is transferred by the music on the dancefloor.After a long period of silence Robert Miles was back with a new track called Freedom. Released in November 1997, it contained lyrics sung by souldiva Kathy Sledge (of Sister Sledge). It went #15 in UK and was a preface to the forthcoming album, finally released on November 27th 1997, called 23AM. As everyone was expecting a new dream house album, Robert Miles wanted to give something different.
As he says: 'Many people have expected from me,that I do things, that I not at all wanted. I am no Pop Star and do not want to belong to the Monsterous Pop Industry. I do something, what I very dear:Music. Therefore no one should love me, but only my music'. The consequence is this new album.
You still have his typical complex arrangements out of mood-fullpiano-sounds, into the area of floating woman-voices and trance like sounds mingle itself at 23 AM electronic and acoustic alleys. 23 AM was described as beingnot really a dance album, but rather a trip through the life. It starts very slowly with the birth: A New Flower with a sample of a baby scream.Afterwards it tells stories from the everyday life: Freedom, Texture or Fly Away.
Whereby the latter is dedicated to the travel - one of themost concise experiences Robert Miles in the last year. The slow trance tracks Full Moon and Leaving Behind are metaphors for the death. 'I thinkthat this album differs very strongly from my first. It is more complete and more personal. One can regain me therein, even if it is another site of me,as those, which one heard beforehand of me. The album contains Trance, Breakbeat and Drum'n'Bass.
Perhaps people, who know me only as Trance and Techno DJ, willnot like it. But the most important for me is that the music gives somewhat, if one hears it. An emotion or a character.' In the same year he mixed one sideof the compilation London for the 'superclub' Renaissance, proving he remained a popular DJ throughout Europe.The next single from Robert Miles is Paths and it's the first single from the thrid album Organik which was released in July 2001. The album's style was more close to trip-hop rather than the dreamhouse we were used to.
