The Rob Boy Right Experience
Rob's aim is to: whip a crowd into a frenzy; to take their minds off to far-away funkin' places;
to ensure that a fantastic booty shakin' time is had by all. By seducing people onto the dancefloor
and then keeping them there by rolling through hands-in-the-air fluffy breakdowns, and down and dirty
feet to the floor grooves. Rob loves to provoke attention by adding a well known accapella here and
there over unknown tunes as well as funked up remixes to keep a more commercially orientated crowds attention.
But not only limited to the party atmosphere, Rob Boy also currently plays chilled out sets, catering to
post-party and pre-party vibes. Incorportating Frank Sinatra to Funk and Bobby Darin to Disco, the toes
are still tapping and heads are nodding to a huge range of chilled beats.
