Biography

Since his debut on the iconic record label Mo’ Wax, Rob Dougan has worked with artists such as U2 and Moby, and his music has defined films such as The Matrix and the Matrix Reloaded. Described as, “a genuine maverick” (The Guardian) and with, “a near-mythical status as a mysterious production genius” (Dazed and Confused) after his Grammy-nominated album Furious Angels was released, he quit, and started working (Jean de Florette-like) in an anonymous vineyard in Southern France. After 10 years of quiet work, this ‘anonymous vineyard’ was named, “easily one of the top estates in all of France” by the Wine Advocate, and Rob Dougan returned with an EP “The 22nd Sunday in Ordinary Time” recorded Air Lyndhurst Studios with 115 performers (a 75-piece orchestra and 40-piece choir). This was followed up by the introspective EP, Misc. Sessions, recorded at the famed Abbey Road Studio 2 with a 50-piece string section and a smaller 10-piece chamber ensemble. Another EP The Life of the World to Come was release in early 2019. And in 2019, for the first time, in his first purely album instrumental release, Films: Past and Future, Rob Dougan compiled 21 tracks never before available on vinyl. Forthcoming releases include The Opening Trilogy which brings together for the very first time the recordings of songs (and instrumentals) made between 2014-2019
