Born in Fulham, London, songwriter, musician and producer Robb
Scott's music incorporates broken beats, jazz funk and Afro Cuban
rhythms, all accompanied by lush string and horn arrangements and
soulful vocals. His first single "Fallin'" has been released last
winter on the Sunshine Enterprises record label with remixes by
Champion Soul and Domu. Also available will be two tracks Passion and
"Havana Affair" . Both of these tracks were written by and feature
Robb on vocals, Fender Rhodes and acoustic guitar and can be heard on
the Champion Soul album, "Excursions" (Lifeline Records/Japan). Also
in the pipeline are two superb broken beat tracks "Freedom Fear" and
"Anything You Like" which feature musicians Jonathan Maron (Groove
Collective, Meshell Ndegeocello ) on bass, Satch Hoyt (Burnt Sugar
Arkestra / Grace Jones) on flute, Fabio Morgera on flugel horn and
Mary Edwards on backing vocals. Both tracks are to be released on the
Afrophonic Recordings label.
Robb Scott's music career spans well over fifteen years beginning in
the mid 80's. After escaping suburbia and squatting in Brixton for
three years, Robb would frequent the london underground nightclub
scene of clubs like The Raw, Whitetrash, Gossips, subterranea and the
Pig, along with the live jazz music scene of clubs like 606, Ronnie
Scott's and the Jazz cafe when it was still only just a hole in the
wall in Islington. Along with six other friends they formed the 999
crew and began organising and promoting various club nights and
parties at Crazy Larry's, Underworld in Camden and 41 Beak street
which is where Robb began spinning records, basically because in
those days "we couldn't afford to pay a DJ for something we could do
ourselves ! ". At about the same time Robb started writing songs with
Elizabeth Troy, a 15 year old chanteuse with an incredible voice whom
he had met whilst he was working at a shoe shop in Carnaby Street.
Liz would later find huge top ten chart success with tracks 'Crazy
Love' and 'Sincere' with 2 step mogul, M J Cole. Robb and Liz would
spend hours holed up in his flat in Battersea writing songs together
at the piano, but it wasn't until Robb joined the now defunct acid
jazz collective, Action People playing Fender Rhodes that their
endevours would really take form. When the band needed to fill the
void left by previous vocalist Rio Hendricks, Robb suggested Liz
Troy, who's mature vocals sat perfectly against the bands funky
landscape of sound. Action People signed to the independent Revco
record label and would eventually release an acid jazz album in 1993
called 'JAZ, JAZZ!, JAZZ?'.
During this period Robb was working at PRS and met loads of people in
the record biz and ended up doing television, video, dancing and
vocal chores for artists like Daryl Hall (Hall and Oates), Gwen
McCrae and D'Influence. Relocating to New York in the mid 90's, Rob
started playing live gigs with his guitar on the downtown
singer/songwriter circuit, with residencies at venues like CBGB's
gallery, the Living Room and Downtime. Independently releasing a
debut cd 'Cyclone' under the moniker of Durry (his middle name), he
recruited the talents of Teena Marie / Prince protΘgΘ Jill Jones,
Adriana Kaegie from Kid creole and the coconuts and guitar virtuoso
Chris Whitley. After being introduced to deep house and broken beat
by friend and dj Vanessa Beck, Robb's musical direction took a sharp
90░ turn. Inspired by the new - found genre, Robb returned to dj-ing
at clubs like Moomba, Halo and Joe's Pub and began to concentrate on
writing music from a more rhythmic standpoint. Producer and friend
Andrew Edward Brown had heard some of the material that Robb was
working on and he himself was in the process of putting together
tracks for the forthcoming Champion Soul album, and so asked Robb to
submit some material for their project. On completing that, Robb has
signed to austrian label Sunshine Enterprises for his next project.
His debut single "Fallin" was released in late 2003, creating some
buzz in the scene. Excellent remixes by Champion Soul and Domu
rounded up his first release.
Following on that, Robb was busy working on his solo album, singing
and playing most of the instruments himself.
Good things take time, but now it┤s on the way - Robb Scotts album
"Afro Odyssey" is scheduled for september/october 2006. As a teaser
to his album, Sunshine Enterprises will release the single "Anything
you like" (SR 046) in june 06. With one of the outstanding album
tracks plus already hyped remixes by Tony Nwachukwu of Attica Blues
fame and soul pirates Blackbeard, this one prepares for things to
come.
Expect more singles around album release, with more remixes by the
likes of Reel People or Kid Sublime.
