He worked using samples of disco music to create very peaceful, loving, yet funky house tracks that culminated in some of his most well-known records.
With 9 albums under his discography, Bob Sinclair’s international hits include Love Generation, which reached No. 1 in a numerous countries including Australia, Belgium and the US Dance chart; and World, Hold On in 2007, which was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Remixed Recording through E-Smoove’s remix, and also reached the top spot in the US Dance chart.
