Robert Charles Edward DeLong (born February 18, 1986) is an Americanelectronic musician from Bothell, Washington.

He has released two albums onGlassnote Records: an EP, Global Concepts, in 2012 and Just Movement in 2013. His single, "Global Concepts" reached #33 on the Billboard Alternative Songs chart in early 2013.
DeLong started as a drummer for indie rock bands but added more electronic elements to his compositions following his exposure to their use at raves. DeLong is notable for using video-game peripherals, such as a Wii remote and a joystick, connected to a MIDI interface, to modify his sound. He cites as influences Death Cab for Cutie, Modest Mouse, and Boards of Canada, among others. He released his first full-length album, Just Movement, on Glassnote Records on 5 February 2013. His sound has been described by Wired Magazine as a merger of "electronic dance music, alt rock, and vocals into tracks that are poppy enough to make you move but dissonant enough to be interesting."
