Robert Roy Raindorf, born in Accra on May 13, 1949, is one of the most enigmatic figures of the West African music scene of the 1970s. After two albums ("Funky Rob Way," 1977, "Make It Fast, Make It Slow," 1978) on the legendary Essiebons imprint, he withdrew from show business.

It was not until the "zero years", with the renewed interest in African sounds, that Rob's music was rediscovered. His standout track "Make It Fast, Make It Slow" was sampled by artists like J Dilla and Camp Lo and has been a hit on dance floors around the world ever since. But it took another 10 years for Rob himself to seek the spotlight again.

On the upcoming tour, Rob will be joined by the Flammer Dance Band from Oslo. The energetic 7-piece band is all about vintage synths, space-out effects, hip-swinging grooves and headbanging breaks! Tight rhythms and first-class musicianship with the freedom, spontaneity and energy of a jam band.
