Latest project
Latest project: a cover album
The new is a collection of songs by Luxembourgish collective LUXUS
led by chick'n.MO, aka "The Kapellmeister".
By reworking these tracks, originally designed as anti-genre experiments, studio playgrounds and joyful acts of musical disobedience, Bob turns the mirror back on rock/funk unorthodoxy.
Not a traditional cover album
BOB & THE LUXUS REDUX PROJECT is not a traditional cover album, but a controlled disturbance: familiar songs behaving badly, structures wobbling, grooves misbehaving, and as a result some egos aware of the "LUXUS' Originals" might be gently but firmly shaken.
Not a tribute. Not nostalgia.
This album exists to remind everyone that music is not a museum, rock is not a pension plan, and that comfort has never been a creative virtue.
Consider THE LUXUS REDUX PROJECT less “paying homage” and more releasing ants into your pants.
About
Bob Sylvester is a Luxembourgish artist working since 1999 between music, sound design and cinematic expression.
He is using DAWs, samples, and recentely AI to skip the group therapy sessions traditionally known as band rehearsals or art theory discussions.
He fits somehow into a, uncategorized niche: part digital scribe, part video artist, calling himself not a musician, in the first place, prefering “audio opportunist” or “button-pusher with feelings.”
... working with artificial intelligence isn’t about replacing humans — it’s about avoiding them.
Music
Approach
The artistic approach for projects (AI-assisted music, lyric-driven songs, self-produced videos, and a non-musician identity) aim to aligne with a growing artistic scene of hybrid creators and their focus on democratizing creativity and opening doors for, day to day, artistic expression.
Vinyl & CD
Physical releases for those who still believe music deserves weight, texture and friction.
Bob & The Redux Project
Available on vinyl and CD.
A tangible version of the controlled disturbance known as
Bob & The Redux Project.
Pressed, packaged and distributed via ElasticStage.
Self-produced "cinematics", add a visual layer, just in case the music wasn’t clear enough already. Video and sound mash-ups are developed as a single expressive form.
Losing It In Las Vegas
The story behind the story
Greg and Bob back from their Caribbean escapades in the previous episode "Fast & Flakyious" ( • Fast & Flakyious - 4K #shortfilm #musicvideo ), expected two things: eternal bragging rights and maybe a decent nap.
What they got instead was exhaustion, and the creeping realization that even chaos can get… boring. Days passed. Then more days. The stories stopped hitting, got old, and even started to feel routine.
For two guys who not so long ago swam to tropical islands, this level of boredom was frankly unacceptable.And then - like most bad ideas - it struck them at the exact same time... LAS VEGAS!

5 Years Later (SJW Blues)
The story behind the story
When the World Ends but Your Opinions Don’t.
He used to dispense social justice — heroically, tirelessly, and almost exclusively from a very ergonomic chair. Back then, he refreshed himself every five seconds with a brand-new scandal, opinion, or moral dilema. He tried to stay morally ahead of the curve! The curve, unfortunately, won....
Five years later, the apocalypse solved the problem. No feeds. No debates. No notifications. Just ruins, wind, and an uncomfortable amount of silence. He’s still a social justice warrior, technically... Only now the causes have changed: basic human decency — now retro stuff.
Heading North for reasons even he can’t fully explain, he wanders through a broken landscape meeting survivors who are far less interested in social justice than in staying alive. Slowly, awkwardly, reality replaces ideology..
A «road movie» about redemption, misplaced certainty, and discovering that social justice is significantly harder without people.
If you enjoy dystopian films, satirical character studies, indie cinema, and philosophical dark comedy, this story might be for you.
Fast & Flakyious
The story behind the story
Originally released as the official video for the song “Nonn Di Kass Dajee Do” by Bob & The Luxus Redux Project, that music video was supposed to be… finished.
However, after a brief meeting of the Creative Department (held in a room containing two chairs and one conflicting opinion), it was unanimously decided — by a narrow margin — that something was missing. Possibly gravitas. Possibly a final. Possibly a punchier music track...
So for gravitas we chose monochrome, a grand final was added and finally the complete music score was changed, general agreement and mutual back-patting included.
During the launch party however the Department of Unnecessarily Dramatic Improvements arrived. After several minutes of heated debate and a brief cookie break, the consequences were immediate. An official voice from somewhere "above" announced: “This clip will be upgraded to 4K - Technicolor as the Colour department refused to leave”. So it was.
Unfortunately, shortly after the Technicolor Incident, a second complication emerged regarding the end credits. A brief emergency session of the Bureau of Cinematic Accountability was convened to correct the situation. During this process, the credits were carefully updated to ensure that all responsible parties were properly acknowledged, somehow…. The revised end credits are therefore slightly the same, marginally more official, and 17% less confusing to historians studying this production in the distant future.
Viewers are encouraged to watch them closely, as they now represent the most accurate list of contributors currently approved by the Department of Retro Action Documentation, pending further investigation.
So here it is "Fast & Flakyious - 4K“ – High-Energy Instrumental Alternative Rock x Drum & Bass | Cinematic 70s Cop Show Music Video.
If you enjoy instrumental rock, hybrid electronic music, drum & bass drops, cinematic short films, or retro crime show aesthetics — this 7-minute experience should blend them all. Built on heavy live-style drums and distorted rock guitars, Fast & Flakyious collides with dubstep low-end, glitchy electronicore textures, and relentless DnB momentum. No vocals. No soft build-ups. Just controlled chaos.
Originally created as a music video, it evolved into a cinematic short film experiment, because sometimes it just needs a badge, a synth bassline, and a slightly overacted stare into the distance...
Perfect for:
• Workout playlists
• Gaming background music
• Driving at night

Sorry Dave, I Ate It – A Rieslingspaschtéit Odyssey 2026
The story behind the story
Somewhere in the vast silence of deep space, humanity makes its greatest discovery: a mysterious black shiny black monolith in the shape-of an ancient Rieslingspaschtéit.
Then, things escalate quickly…
This music video is a respectful, but scientifically questionable homage to « Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey » (1968) — except instead of mysterious monoliths and existential dread, the crew of a spacecraft listed in official records as “soft infrastructure. confronts a far more serious dilemma:
At first the mission proceeds according to plan.The astronauts float gracefully through the ship / The music plays / The computer appears calm / Then the refrigeration unit reports: “Sorry Dave… I ate it”…
What follows is a slow-burning cosmic tragedy involving:
* zero-gravity crumbs
* philosophical debates about the resistance of pâté in space
* a highly confused onboard computer
* and the irreversible consequences of bringing Luxembourgish cuisine into orbit.
Sorry Dave, I Ate It – A Rieslingspaschtéit Odyssey 2026 explores the deepest questions of human existence:
* Are we alone in the universe?
* What is consciousness?
* And why did someone use a Rieslingspaschtéit which even does not resemble to a genuine luxemburgish pâté, for this clip?
A cinematic journey through space, hunger, and questionable mission AI discipline.
