"
Let's..get on with the business of Steve Cobby's major contribution to downtempo funk in this country and leftfield dance music in general. He is one half of Fila Brazillia and one third of Heights of Abraham, which on their own should get him a knighthood." - DJ magazine, 1996
Mixmag described How About Some Ether?; an album from Cobby's solo project, The Solid Doctor, as, "
Classy without unnecessary showiness, chilled out without faking the funk, it spreads its tapestry over two CDs, but your eyelids won't droop once. More therapeutic than a lifetime's supply of Prozac and Freudian analysis. Prescribe now."
Solo, and with
Dave McSherry, Cobby has produced numerous albums and re-mixes.
