Bobby Collins  Collins aka Spaceflight Orchestra aka DJ Makyo

Upcoming Gigs:   September 11



Bobby Collins aka Spaceflight Orchestra aka DJ Makyo has been a musician for most of life. At the pre-pubescent age of 10 he found an old Melbay guitar in his stepdad’s basement and thus his musical foundation was founded with the first dissonant strum. 8 years later he picked up an old electric bass. 3 years after that he began taking piano lessons. 5 years passed and he bought a sitar and began lessons under an A-list sitarist and Bollywood film composer from India. 3 months after that he purchased his first set of turntables. 2 years later he bought a theremin and decided to stop purchasing any new musical instruments for awhile. The last six years have found him spending many a lonely night locked in his room practicing on his turntables and producing various tracks for his own amusement. He also spent much of that time working at a post-production studio in his hometown of Denver. It was here that he honed his compositional skills while writing music and jingles for commercials, documentaries, short films and corporate videos. For a while he enjoyed making children’s music for adults with his band The Bobby Collins Death Metal Armada. He headed up the band and played guitar, synths, vocoder and theremin, but his interest in DJing and producing got the best of him.
