About Me

In 1992 Rollo made his first record; Felix’s ‘Don’t U Want Me’. It was created in a garden shed in Packington Street, Islington and Rollo charged £300 for his production skills and the use of his (very little) studio. He thought this was a good deal. The record went on to sell 2½ million copies.The 1990’s was the decade of dance music and Rollo was involved in some of its finest moments : Felix, Usura, Kristine W, Sister Bliss, the Rollo Goes series, Gloworm, and Frankë – creating hits here and in Europe.Then in 1996 he teamed up with Sister Bliss and Maxi Jazz to form Faithless: Insomnia, Salva Mea, God is a DJ , We Come One, Mass Destruction and Bombs followed.Faithless have made 6 albums and sold over 12 million records in the 10 years they have existed.Rollo founded Cheeky Records in 1996 to release Faithless and then Dido (who he produced and cowrote with). Once these artists took off, Rollo sold the label to BMG, fell in love, got married, had two kids, relaxed and only recnetly returned to the mixing deskRollo’s top 20 favourite albums are (in no particular order): U2: Achtung Baby Leftfield: Leftism Aswad: Live & Direct REM: Automatic for People Neville Bros: Yellow Moon Millie Jackson: Caught Up Pink Floyd: Darkside of the Moon Talk Talk: Spirit of Eden John Martyn: Solid Air Underworld: Dubnobasswithmyheadman David Gray: White Ladder Radiohead: OK Computer UB40: UB40/Present Arms Marvin Gaye: What’s Going On LSK: Outlaw Fleetwood Mac: Rumours Enya: Watermark Tracy Chapman: Tracy Chapman Fugees: The Score J. M. Jarre: Equinox/OxygeneRollo has been very lucky in his career: he has never had to compromise his musical taste and can count on one hand the records he has made that he would not rush out and buy (well, maybe 2 hands if you include some rather dodgy remixes in the early days).His recent work includes producing one eskimos beautiful album, 'all balloons', he has just finished the All thieves record ( both these artists you can hear above. He is currently working with singer/songwriter pete lawrie and is very excited about the music of kyla le grange...
