Robert Miles (born Roberto Concina, November 3, 1969, in Neuch&acirctel, Switzerland) is a DJ playing trance, techno and other kinds of music. He was born to Antonietta and Albino. Miles wasn't a music prodigy, but during his youth, became proficient at playing piano and has been around in the music scene since 1988. He worked as DJ in some Italian clubs and in 1990, he invested his savings and bought second-hand equipments to establish his own studio, however, his initial compositions went unnoticed.

In 1995, Miles achieved phenomenal success through his dream house single "Children". Within two weeks of its release, it sold more than 30,000 copies all over the Europe. "Children" topped charts in many countries. It earned Robert Platinum records in UK and Germany and Gold records in many others including non-European countries like Israel.

Miles' next single was "Fable", vocals for which were performed by Feralla Qunin. His debut album Dreamland was released on June 7, 1996 in Europe where it was a hit, and was also released a few days later in U.S. with a new track "One and One" sung by Maria Nayler. This new track became very popular and was later released as a single in U.S. and Germany.

In the end of 1996, Robert released a new version of Dreamland, called Dreamland - the winter edition in Germany, largely similar to Dreamland, but containing the track "One and One" (which wasn't released on the European version of Dreamland).
