Prof. Trebor

One would be forgiven for assuming that the suburbs of 1980’s Dublin, where pop acts like Johnny Logan and ABBA ruled the airways would have been the best place to begin a love affair with the still nascent world of electronic music - but growing up in a household where music was as omnipresent as the people who lived there, Robbie knew there was so much more out there to enjoy than the oppressive reign of Europop and Showband Country-Folk.

Now settled in Co. Kildare, Robbie Parsons — more commonly known as Prof. Trebor — has evolved into an artist immersed in the cinematic world of 1980s-inspired Synthwave. Trained by his father as a guitarist from a young age, Parsons brings that lifelong connection to the instrument into a sound driven by blazing guitar solos, huge analogue-inspired synths, punchy electronic drums and gritty, evocative vocals.

Drawing inspiration from the soundtracks, night drives and neon-soaked imagination of the 1980s, Prof. Trebor combines lush synth textures with the raw energy of rock guitar and the atmosphere of electronic music. His tracks move between powerful, driving rhythms and expansive cinematic passages, creating a sound that feels simultaneously nostalgic and futuristic.

This is music for midnight drives, city lights and places that only exist after dark.
