About
Primarily a hard house DJ by trade, Rob Tissera is also an accomplished producer with a couple classics to his credit: "Kick Up the Volume" (1996) and "The Day Will Come" (1998), the latter produced in conjunction with Ian Bland as Quake. Based in Leeds, Tissera took an interest in electronic dance music during the '80s; he frequented the Hacienda in Manchester and engaged in the warehouse rave scene that arose late in the decade. He emerged as a prolific producer in the '90s, releasing tracks under a number of monikers, some of them collaborations, but chose to release his biggest hit, "Kick Up the Volume," under his own name, which he had previously reserved for remixes. Released by XL Recordings in 1996, "Kick Up the Volume" was an anthem of its time, championed by big-name DJs such as Carl Cox, Pete Tong, and Judge Jules.
