Rob Mirage biography

Rob Mirage was born and raised in New York City. Growing up around the influence of music it was only obvious that his goal at age fourteen was to get a pair of turntables and learn how to DJ. Learning the trade came very easy for him and DJing grew to become Rob's biggest passion. At the young age of 16 he spent every weekend at Palladium NYC with a close friend Kieth Carter who at the time was the opening DJ for Hex Hector. These incredible nights opened this young DJ's eyes to a whole new world that he had to be a part of. It didn’t take long before Rob had his own saturday night residency in Brooklyn at UMC. This was also the time he started getting into the crazy underground scene in NY. Rob’s passion for house music grew strong as he listened night after night on the dancefloors of venue’s such as Limelight, Palladium and Tunnel just to name a few. It was then that he knew house music would be a part of his life forever.

Rob returned to New York in June of 2000. After settling back in and learning a little more about the industry, he collaborated with Chris Soul and produced “Twisting My Brain”. Strictly Rhythm signed it to their label shortly after Victor Calderone played it at Crobar for the Winter Music Conference. Shortly after, Rob produced the “Mirage EP” released on Referense Recordings. This release gained the attention of Chus and Ceballos in Madrid, Spain and started a friendship that would eventually grow into something much bigger. Rob has been extremely busy in the studio the past three years completing numerous projects for major labels. A remix Rob produced called “Cytric - I Need You” for Chus and Ceballos’ own Iberican Recordings is featured on thier Compilation CD BACK2BACK. This remix was also picked up by world renowned DJ Carl Cox for his latest Mix Compilation "GLOBAL". After the success of I Need You he completed three exclusive projects for Chus all of which are featured on Stereo Productions. “Black Rain, My World & Join Handz" are all huge standout records in the industry. Rob has several other remixes out worldwide, too many to mention but remix after remix Rob keeps pumping them out. Recently, Rob decided to step away from the remixes for a while to work on some original projects. His "Running Scared EP" released on Solar Recordings has been a huge success. "Techno Girl", another original he recently produced, was immediatly picked up by Chus for Stereo Productions.
