Goodreamsagain Oct 2012 – present:

Back at the beginning of time, circa 1990-91, Rob was involved with a group with a similar name, that lifted its name from a spoken sample in some old schlock sci-fi movie. It was an experimental collective, born under the wing of 4-ZZZ FM production, deriving taped rhythm loops, samples and industrial noise from a variety of sources including; the 4-ZZZ sound effects library, the television, dodgy sixties music and VHS tapes of B-grade movies.

In earnest, the group of teenagers recruited a couple of other main characters incorporating drums, bass guitar, lead guitar and vocals and in August 1991 played one gig as a live-to-air on 4-ZZZ FM. After the live set they produced several hours of archived experimental noise and mayhem, some of which, despite the name, was actually pretty good.

Today, Goodreamsagain is a retrospective attempt to clear the name of these pieces and re-work / re-mix some of its finer moments. The one man project kicked off in 2012 with a re-release of 'Audioworx' which was a tentative step into this semi-recharted territory. 2014 saw Goodreamsagain coalesce with the release of 'Preservative Free' which follows a similar path of re-working older ideas, but with a purely digital slant, which enhances some of the what was lo-fi techniques used previously, while transforming them into something more modern to enjoy. The album was launched at a Fortitude Valley Bar in Brisbane in January 2015.

2015 has seen Rob release an album featuring Alister Bartholemew 'GDA Ideas' and with a huge creative surge, another double album 'More GDA Ideas.' A further long player came out in December 'Produktion' incorporating some YouTube videos for a couple of the singles. 2016 saw the release of another full length album 'Metriclock' in November. In 2018 a full length album 'IO' was released on vinyl with the follow up long player 'Mates, Buddies and Asteroids'. In August 2020 'Callisto' was released, featuring the single 'Nearby Woman'. 'Felix' came out in March 2021 was slated as the final release for Goodreamsagain, but another full length album 'Whirled' is out in July of 2022.

Rob Lennox Acoustic Performances Jul 2011 – present:

Rob Lennox has a full hour set of original songs he sings and plays on acoustic guitar, as well as a wide range of cover versions to draw on. His songs are relaxing and uplifting. With many influences, Rob taught himself guitar as a teenager, learning blues standards. The lyrics of the originals are about love, society and life.

TAIYO Aug 1998 – Sep 2001:

Taiyo began as a concept for Robert's solo act and a way of releasing more keyboard/sample/sequenced based electronic music. After over a year of constant song writing, recording and sampling and working closely with Shannon, in 1998 Taiyo performed at The Chelsea and the 4-ZZZ Market Day. In November 1998 Robert and Shannon recorded an 11 song CD for demonstration purposes.

After playing shows in Brighton and London in the U.K., a full-length album began in recording sessions. Taiyo collaborated with MegL in 2002 to release a Demo EP in 2003. 2005 saw Rob record and produce ranges in style from drum n bass to rhymes over beats that are still under construction. Taiyo's live events have included local support acts, video projection visuals and special lighting and local and international DJs.
