A.k.a. DJ Taghead Top-Rob!

Started as DJ in 1976 in the first real discotheque in Amsterdam, called the 'Lucky Star', from that point on he worked his way through all the hotspots in town. (50/50 club, La Bouteille, Cupfinal, Bistrotheque a.o.) Ending up around 1980 at Decibel Radio, the largest Pirate Radio Station in Holland. In 1985 he started working for DMC (Disco Mix Club), a worldwide exclusive DJ-organisation of which only the best DJ's per country were a member. They released albums on a monthly basis with super hot and exclusive remixes of the hit records at that time. By the time that it became the 'summer of love' in 1987, Rob's fame was at an ultimate high in Holland and he played at every club and warehouse that gave house-parties. He's still seen as one of the Dutch godfathers of house. In 1990 Boskamp set up the first real vinyl-wholesale for house music only (boudisque) in Holland. In 1992 DJ Rob Boskamp started his own record-company called Fonky Fibe Records.
