Rupert Hine

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Rupert Neville Hine is an English musician and also a prolific producer in the synth pop era, helming albums such as Tina Turner's Private Dancer, Howard Jones's Human's Lib, Saga's Worlds Apart, and The Fixx Reach the Beach.

He was founder of the band Quantum Jump, and also recorded under the name Thinkman which he conceived as a virtual band. Many fans consider his tryptichon Immunity, Waving Not Drowning and Wildest Wish to Fly to be his masterwork. While being an extremely successful producer for the international music industry in the 1980s, today his work as a solo artist is mainly recognized by music enthusiasts and electronic music insiders. The German electronic artist Bob Humid claims to be influenced a lot by Hine's highly developed production skills where audio-edits were to a large extent meaningful and precise.
