For those of us, including this diarist, who tripped on the early days of Trance and Psychedelia back in the 1990s and early 2000s, this bit of news comes as a downer. Robert Miles, the Italian music producer, who created the hit, Children (1995-96), has passed away in Ibiza of an undisclosed illness.

The 47-year-old, born Robert Concina, captured the imagination of clubbers worldwide with this one track. In India, we loved the video for its haunting frames dotted with children, and for its soothing piano riffs.
Miles had stated in interviews that the song took shape after his father brought back photos of children war victims from former Yugoslavia. Another reason for the slower tempo, he said, was to calm drivers after attending rave and trance parties that were popular then. Well played, Robert.
