Rob Hubbard is an iconic British composer best known for his pioneering work in video game music, especially during the 1980s when he composed for the Commodore 64 (C64) home computer. His career began in the early '80s, but it was his move into the video game industry that cemented his legacy. Hubbard's talent for creating compelling soundtracks within the technical constraints of early home computers earned him a reputation as one of the most influential composers in the field.

From his work on classic games such as "Commando," "Monty on the Run," and "Sanxion," Hubbard's compositions have become synonymous with the early era of video gaming music. His ability to utilize the C64's SID (Sound Interface Device) chip led to the creation of complex and memorable chiptune music that pushed the boundaries of what was believed possible with 8-bit sound. The "Commodore 64 Sid Anthology" volumes showcase a vast collection of Hubbard's compositions, allowing both older fans and newcomers to the chiptune scene to experience the depth and creativity of his work. His influence extends beyond the vintage gaming community, as his music has been celebrated, remixed, and revered within the broader electronic music sphere.
