Omni Trio is the alias of producer Rob Haigh, known for a unique style of highly musical ambient drum and bass,andprimarily associated with the Moving
Shadow label.
Omni Trio was one of the original drum and bass producers, who first released for Moving Shadow as early as 1993.Heproduced several massive anthems
in the period now known as “old skool”, including the piano-led “Renegade Snares”and“Thru the Vibe”. Both these featured on his first LP, The Deepest
Cut, released in 1995 in the UK (and was released in the US that same year as Music For The Next Millenium), which is recognised as one of the
first drum and bass albums.
He followed up quickly with The Haunted Science in 1996, which included well known tracks like “Trippin’ on Broken Beats” and “Nu Birth of Cool”.
Mainstream trends in dancefloor-oriented drum and bass rapidly diverged from his style, and subsequent albums Skeleton Keys (1997), Byte Size
Life (1999), and Even Angels Cast Shadows (2001) produced no big hits on the scale of his early singles, but they further cemented his
reputation as one of the finest album-oriented musicians indrum and bass.Indeed, he was the first artist in the genre to produce five full-length artist
albums.
Rob Haigh’s final album under the alias Omni Trio was Rogue Satellite (2004) which was only released on CD, although the sampler appeared on
vinyl. Omni Trio’s last release is a remix of 808 by oS released in 2005. « hide |
