Press Reviews Lost World CD - Reviews: If Mike Oldfield and Vangelis had collaborated in about 1988, I suspect it would have come out sounding something like this. If they were both in good form. "Ommadawn" meets "Soil Festivities" with some trance beats for added spice. Short and sweet. This is one for the next DAM CD run in my book. A complete gem. --- Milo Black --- This is very nice work by an experienced solo musician from the UK. Using synthesiser, many world influences and ambient sounds with percussive elements. This would make good film soundtrack music. --- Jeza --- "Sojourn" EP - Review by Stuart Mitchell With so much expression and cool harmonic changes, Rob has created an atmosphere & feeling of longing and sadness, but tinged with a little hope. There is a very strong identity in this CD, I love the sounds and the recording is great. A brilliant job
