Robert Smit (July 24, 1973) started buying records at an early age when he met Ferry Corsten and found out that they shared the same interest: House Music.
Both started mixing tapes for friends and when they met Rene and John who had their own small music studio. The four joined forces which resulted in Robert's first record production entitled "Spirit Of Adventure" for Hithouse Records at the age of 18.
His 2nd release "The Tellurians - The Navigator" was a huge underground hit in Germany in 1992.
From then on Ferry and Robert went their own way with productions for Blue Records under the names of "Alternative" and "Bladeracer".
Robert's first solo project appeared in 1995 under the project name "Kcrushed One".
He produced "Release Yourself" and for the Dutch label Native Dance Records and SciFi Records. His first commercial success was when Robert produced together with Ferry "Roef - Outthere" for Byte Records.
From 1998 Robert and Ferry got together with the Dutch Purple Eye Entertainment - joined forces in Tsunami, a label for which they both produce.
For this label Robert is responsible for "Elektrika", "The Generator" and "2HD". Due to the success of the label abroad they started Polar State in the beginning of 1999 as Tsunami as sub-label.
Robert produced the first and second release on this label. The first was called "The Generator - Where Are You Now?" and has been licensed to various countries around the world. The second single is called "Perfect Pervert" by "Caveman".
Under the "Caveman" pseudonym Robert has produced the massive "E-Play" track which has been released on the Tsunami special blend label. Also later out on Tsunami Special Blend "Smiter" with "Both Places", this track was picked-up by DJ's like Paul van Dyk and Tiësto.
Robert also co-produced the massive follow-up single of the System F hit "Out Of The Blue" entiteld "Cry". This track took trance to a different level combining soulful vocals by Saskia Lie Atjam with typical trance sound. Rank 1, Oliver Lieb and Ferry Corsten provided additional remixes.
Furthermore Robert made a mix compilation album together with Ferry Corsten called "Tsunami One" which was released in 2000.
"Tsunami One" was a success world-wide and Robert's mix set the tone for a new compilation concept called "Time Zones +1" which was mixed solely by Robert in 2002.
Robert is also responsible for "The Arrival" by "Stargate vs The Generator". His first production under his own name came out via the Polar State imprint in 2001; "Robert Smit - It's In The Game".
