John Robie is an American musician, producer and songwriter. He has produced and/or written for such artists as: Chaka Khan, New Order, UB40, Cabaret Voltaire, Soulsonic Force, Boy George, Planet Patrol, Laura Branigan, and Freeez, among others.[1]

Career

Robie launched his career as the co-writer and synthesizer “wizard” on one of the most important and seminal records in Hip-Hop history, Planet Rock by Soulsonic Force. ("One of the most influential songs of everything, it changed the world" - Rick Rubin in Rolling Stone’s “Top 100 Hip Hop Records” issue.)[2]

Robie subsequently went on to produce other groundbreaking hits for Soulsonic Force; Looking For The Perfect Beat and Renegades Of Funk (later covered by Rage Against The Machine), and continued to pursue an audaciously experimental approach towards electronic music, which resulted in his pioneering a completely new musical genre, Electro. "One More Shot", performed by C-Bank, and "Body Mechanic", performed by Quadrant 6, both written and produced by Robie, were among the first to define this art form. His songs have been sampled by such artists as City Girls, Lunchmoney Lewis, Snoop Dogg, Calvin Harris, Plump DJs, Jamie xx, LL Cool J, Black Eyed Peas, Limp Bizkit, and Tag Team.[3][4]

He entered into the world of video/film production making his directorial debut with the short film, The Future Is Mine, which was released in the wake of George Floyd's murder.[5]
