Glassnote Records artist, Robert Delong has been described as a “one-man futuristic dance party with beats as cerebral as Orbital and club-ready as Calvin Harris.” Hailing from Los Angeles, DeLong explores the many facets of identity and spirituality within the catchy atmosphere of dance beats and pop-hooks. His debut album, Just Movement, is due on February 5, 2013, and has already spawned quite of interest from the lead single, “Global Concepts”.
DeLong has performed live, using a myriad of tools that include Wii-motes, keyboards, and drums to develop a live rock show that CMJ claims worthy of “an 8-bit warrior, seamlessly creating danceable electro beats with his Wii Remote and Sega Genesis controller on par with the Chemical Brothers.” He uses MIDI interfaces, a full drum set, drum pads, keyboards, laptops and game controllers, looping his music live to fuse electronic dance beats with striking melodies and lyrics with emotional heart.
