After a couple of years, Rob decided that he wanted to see the world. He joined the U.S. Air Force in June of 1996 at the age of 19. Within the four years of his enlistment, Rob found himself traveling all over the world. Places like Africa, Europe, South America and Central America to say the least. Stationed in Florida, Rob tried as hard as he could to keep DJing. Knowing that the house music scene was not big out there, he knew he could get a name for himself spinning hip-hop and reggae. He finally got a chance spinning at a local hip-hop club. He slowly gained respect from his crowd and started introducing house music into their scene. His following got big enough and soon enough had a residency at Nightown, FL. Over the next three years he acquired residencies at Zanzibar, the Den, Galaxy and many more. While in Florida, he also spent a lot of his free time teaching himself the basics of midi and learning how to produce. By the time he left Florida the underground house scene was strong and his passion for music grew stronger.

Rob returned to New York in June of 2000. After settling in and learning a little more about the industry, he got together with an old friend Chris Bartelli and produced "Twisting My Brain". Groovalicious signed it shortly after Victor Calderone dropped it at Crobar for the Winter Music Conference. Twisting My Brain had a huge turn out for a debut single. It reached number 35 on the Billboard Hot Dance Music Club Play Chart. Shortly after came the "Mirage EP" which was released on Referense Recordings. Consisting of three tracks, the "Mirage EP" was being charted by DJ's everywhere, from the U.S. all the way to Japan. Another release under Rob's belt is "Do You Love Me?" which was released on Carlos Manaça's label Magna Recordings. "Do You Love Me" has given Rob incredible exposure and street credit from some of the bigger DJ's and producers such as Chus & Ceballos, Saeed & Palash, Peter Bailey, Mike Morales, Carlos Fauvrelle, etc. Rob's latest release "Forever" featuring Pleasant Russell on Loop 128 Records is a huge release for him. Promo copies topped DJ charts and were frequented numerous radio shows before the record was released. Upon release "Forever" entered stores everywhere at the top of the charts.

Rob Mirage is definitely off to a great start in the crazy world of house music. His DJing and Production reputation has come to speak for itself. Through his devotion, desire and passion for his music, Rob will continue to bring us the music we come to expect from him.
