Rob Tissera - Illegal Raves, Prison Time, and Dance Music Legacy
In this explosive episode of When I Grow Up, Paul Glazby reunites with dance music legend Rob Tissera for an unfiltered chat about his incredible life and career. From playing at illegal raves in the early '90s and inciting a three-hour standoff with riot police, to spending time in prison and coming out stronger, Rob holds nothing back.
They dive into the origins of the acid house scene, Rob’s time behind bars at Armley Jail, and how that experience became the turning point in his music career. Rob also reflects on producing under multiple aliases, legendary pool table victories with Paul, and being at the forefront of UK dance culture. With stories involving Pete Tong, Sister Bliss, and Tony De Vit, this episode is packed with nostalgia, humour, and deep insights into what it takes to last decades in the music industry.
