About / Biography

I’m Phatt Rob, a vinyl-only house DJ specialising in classic and uplifting 90s and 00s house music. I play exclusively from original vinyl, bringing a genuine old-school feel to weddings, private parties, events, bars and venues.

My sets combine recognisable vocals, melodies and feel-good house with timeless deeper cuts, building energy for a busy dancefloor while still offering enough variety for more relaxed moments. I mix everything live on Technics turntables, with no laptop or sync. I’ve also reached the top 10 of the Mixcloud Global Vinyl charts following a strong run of high-ranking chart positions with my mixes.

For weddings and private events, I offer a dedicated vinyl house DJ service with music planning beforehand to make sure the style suits the occasion. I also run my own house music nights, House Heritage and Vinyl Sessions, at various prominent venues across Brighton.

Technical Info

What are your basic technical requirements?

Stable mains power supply. I require approximately 2.5 metres of clear setup space. I provide my own sound system where required. A level, stable floor is preferred for vinyl turntables.


What information do you require about a venue?

Venue address, event timings, DJ setup location, access/parking arrangements, available power and PA facilities, approximate guest numbers, and a venue contact for the event.


Do you provide sound and lighting equipment?

Yes. I provide a very good sound system and DJ lighting for various sized events. For larger venues or events, I can work with the venue’s existing PA or arrange additional sound and lighting if required.


Can you provide a Spotify/DJ service before and between your sets?

No. My DJ sets are performed exclusively from vinyl, and I don't provide a Spotify or background-music service between sets.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever worked at?

Volks Club in Brighton. It has an incredible history and has hosted some of the biggest international names in electronic music, so being able to play there is a real privilege. It’s also a venue with a genuine connection to Brighton’s underground music scene.


What's your favourite type of event?

Weddings, corporate events and house music events, particularly where I can bring something different with a vinyl-only set of classic and uplifting 90s and 00s house.


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

I've been mixing on vinyl and using decks since I was a teenager, giving me over 30 years of experience with turntables and vinyl. I regularly play at prominent bars and venues around Brighton, including Volks Club, The King and Queen, The Mesmerist and the Bee's Mouth. I also perform from time to time in London. I specialise in classic and uplifting 90s, 00s and 10s house, played exclusively from vinyl.


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

I've been influenced by artists such as Roger Sanchez, David Morales, Masters At Work and Rhythm Masters. Roger Sanchez is probably my biggest influence, particularly his ability to combine great vocals, grooves and uplifting house music. If I had to pick one greatest song of all time, I'd go for The Shapeshifters – Lola's Theme.

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

Setup usually takes around 30 minutes. Performance times can vary depending on the event, but the average set last for around 4 hours, with longer performances available by arrangement.


Are you happy to perform outside?

Yes, provided the DJ equipment is under suitable cover and protected from rain, and adverse weather conditions. A stable, level surface and suitable power supply are also required.


Do the clients have a say in what you play or is it a set repertoire list only?

Clients are welcome to discuss their musical preferences and make requests in advance. I’ll work with them to shape the music around their event, although requests are subject to what I have available on vinyl.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Previous clients commonly describe my performances as energetic, uplifting and authentic, with great music and a real old-school feel. They particularly enjoy the vinyl-only approach and the mix of recognisable favourites alongside less obvious tracks.


What makes your DJ service different?

I mix everything live on Technics turntables, using no laptop, no sync buttons and no digital shortcuts. Every mix is done by ear, using my knowledge of the tracks and my own vinyl collection to know exactly when to bring in the next record, where the breakdowns and outros are, and how the tracks will work together. It’s a hands-on, instinctive way of DJing that comes from years of working with vinyl and knowing the music inside out. The result is a genuine, live DJ performance rather than simply selecting and pressing play on a playlist.
