    I always assumed Dom&Roland was two people, one of which named himself after synth hardware. As it turns out, it's one guy who decided to give his hardware extra credentials for the role it played.

    his music was the introduction to Drum n Bass for me. Still one of the best music producers to date. Strange to see he's such a nice down-to-earth guy and not arrogant at all. Sorry for the bad english and thanks for sharing! Love + Respect!

      I've said hello to him at a festival a couple of times and he was quite dismissive :'D. Probably didn't want to be bothered by fan boys like myself haha. I should add, if you ever get the chance, go and see him play a b2b with Klute OMFG.

      "I helped make this EQ what it is today, not in the terms of coding or anything..." Doesn't sound so down to earth there. Doesn't even name the EQ to give them free advert. Awesome producer though.

      Mrs. Stanfield I've met Dom and Rob in New Orleans back in 99 and i guess because i didn't look like a clownish candy raver and wasn't chewing on a pacifier they both were real cool and friendly. Chilled on a couch drinking beers with Dom and Rob and Dara too! I HAVE THE PICTURES TO PROVE IT.

    Cheers Dom! It's very inspiring to see that alot of musicproduction comes down to being creative and finding your own ways of getting a good result in the end. Alot of times myself and surely others loose hope when things seem to get to technical and you doubt yourself as a producer. But recording a random sound from the tellie to create a big dark riff sound. Respect :)
