One of the dance music genres I like and often spin is Disco House. It seems that people just keep coming back for Disco, even though it’s more than 30 years old. The Disco House scene started in the late 80's/early 90's by DJ/producers like Dave Lee (better known by his alias Joey Negro) and his colleague Andrew "Doc" Livingstone; also Dimitri from Paris and some others...
What they did was make house kind-of-music but with a distinct Disco influence. The songs sound like a classic Disco tune but use all the latest equipment and software, including samplers. The whole concept behind this music genre is that the songs should sound and breathe DISCO. Dave was one of the first producers to sample from disco music and it is said that the term "Disco House" was first used by the music press to describe Dave's output under his Joey Negro alias. OK, it wasn't "officially" called Disco House until in the mid 90's - but the concept and music was the same all the time and Disco House is really the closest you can get to real classic Disco.

About Me
- DJ RobJob
- San Francisco, CA, United States
- DJ RobJob is one of the many exciting new DJs coming out of the vibrant San Francisco dance club scene. DJ RobJob playfully expands ways to blend the new with the old – his musical influences are rooted in the 70s funk and disco sounds, spinning tracks that blend these sounds across House genres, such as Funky, Pumpin’, French, Electro, and Tech. His DJ influences include Axwell, Dimitri from Paris, and Joey Beltram. The result is an upbeat, infectious and bouncy set – the kind of dance music that you just can’t stop your body from moving to. Trained musically on the sax at age 8, DJ RobJob played in several funky jazz bands. In the 80s, he started to experiment with electronic music as he tinkered with his 1st computer – he then expanded to computer generated music, DJing and mixing. DJ RobJob later refined his DJ skills at DJ4LIFE Academy under the mentorship of renowned DJ, Tall Sasha, and recently became a Resident DJ at the school. Having performed at leading clubs in the USA, DJ RobJob is expanding internationally with a tour in Asia this summer. DJ RobJob is also working on his own collection of remixes, a new release is expected for later this year.
