by Rob TheakstonBorn at a very young age to parents with good genetic codes, Rob Theakston signed with Team All Music Guide as a free agent in 2000. He is a technical editor, but makes the occasional foray into review-writing territory when they let him out of the data cage made of ones and zeroes. A frequent contributor to various publications worldwide, he's also spent several years working in the Detroit electronic music community, working alongside Carl Craig's Planet E Communications and Ann Arbor's Ghostly International labels. In his free time, Rob enjoys pesto, cilantro, lime, and bread -- though not necessarily in that order.
Other things Rob enjoys:
The Mary Tyler Moore Show
Soap
The West Wing
Pugs
Long walks on a beach
Kenneth Koch
Minimalist art
Office supply stores
Tacos
