[QUOTE]DJ Robert Miles, who created one of the most recognisable songs of the Nineties in club classic Children, has died aged 47.
The Italian music producer, who was born Robert Concina, was reported dead by DJ Mag Italia, who said that he had died from an unspecified illness in the early hours of Wednesday morning.
His friend, Joe T Vannelli, said in a statement: "The tragic news of the death of a very talented artist of our time, makes me incredulous and upset. I will miss the fights, brawls, criticism, judgements but especially your talent in finding sounds and melodies unparalleled."

The instantly recognisable Children was released in 1995, first with little impact in Italy, then, months later, in the clubs of Miami. When British trance artist Simon Berry released it as the lead single from his album Dreamland in November 1995, Children became an international sensation, topping charts in 12 countries and spending 17 weeks in the UK Top 40.

I agree, Dreamland is fantastic album, and also it's golden classic in house/techno genre.
And Children, everybody know/heard this song.

Rest in peace.

Miles's radio station OpenLab confirmed he died "after a courageous battle with stage four metastatic cancer".[/QUOTE]
Fuck cancer. Fuck cancer so fucking much, man. 47 is too soon.

Also, remember that Miles' biggest hit, Children, was a new genre called dream house, and [URL="http://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-39871459"]it was literally created to save lives.[/URL]
