Robert Miles Website

Robert Miles was born to Antonietta and Albino Concina in Neuchâtel, Switzerland.

Although not a musical prodigy, Miles became proficient at playing the piano during his youth in Friuli, in the small town of Fagagna, where his family moved when he was still a young boy, and has been in the music 'scene' since 1988. He worked as DJ in some Italian clubs and in 1990, he used his savings to establish his own studio and bought some second-hand equipment. However, his initial compositions went unnoticed.

In 1994, Miles wrote his most famous dream house work, titled Children. The single picked up steam slowly, and within two weeks of its official release in 1995, had sold more than 30,000 copies all over Europe and topped the charts in many countries. It earned Miles Platinum records in UK and Germany and Gold records in many other countries. It was considered the largest single of 1996. Children just fell shy of reaching Top-20 status on the US charts, but remained popular with the DJs. In December 2004, Children reached new audiences in the UK when it was sampled on a collaboration between Angel City and Ministry of Sound, entitled "Do You Know?", which reached the Top 10 in the UK.

Miles' next single was "Fable", with vocals performed by Fiorella Quinn. Part of this song was used in the theatrical trailer for the US movie, Ever After starring Drew Barrymore and Dougray Scott. His debut album Dreamland was released on June 7, 1996 in Europe where it was a hit, and was also released a few days later in the U.S., with a new track One and One sung by Maria Nayler and written by Hit-Songwriters Billy Steinberg, Rick Nowels and Marie Claire D'ubaldo. This new track became very popular and was later released as a single in the U.S. and Germany. At the end of 1996, Miles released a new version of Dreamland, called Dreamland - the winter edition in Germany. It was largely similar to Dreamland, but contained the track One and One (which wasn't released in the European version of Dreamland). The song One and One was originally written for Polish leading female artist Edyta Górniak. She recorded it a year later on her international debut album "Edyta Gorniak" (and "Kiss Me, Feel Me" in the Japanese edition).

On November 27, 1997, Miles released another track Freedom which was one of the key tracks on the album 23am. Containing a different feel from the previously light Dreamland, 23am incorporated more lyrics-driven songs than its predecessor while maintaining Miles' trademark piano sound from the first album.

Miles remained under the radar until June 11, 2001, when his new album, Organik, was released on both vinyl and CD. Featuring the new single Paths and, it was considered by many fans to be a break from the style that Miles had pioneered in his first two albums.

In 2003, an album mainly containing remixes of many of the songs found on Organik was released. The album, appropriately titled Organik Remixes, contained remixes by the winners of the remixing contest held on Robert Miles' website, as well as remixes from well known artists such as The Future Sound of London. The album also had one new track from Robert Miles, titled Bhairav, which featured the powerful vocals of Amelia Cuni.

In late 2003, Miles moved from his home in London to Los Angeles. He started his own production label, S:alt Records, and in 2004 released an album created under a partnership with Trilok Gurtu, entitled Miles Gurtu. According to his website, Miles is expected to release one final album under the Robert Miles name, bringing his music career under it to a close.

Miles now lives in Ibiza, where he is recording his new album.

Hope you enjoy the show....
