You mean Roberto Concina...? ???

Now why would he have a different name in other parts of the world? ??? ::) That doesn't make sense to me.

No - that's just his real name. ;)
So Concina is his real surname then?

If anyone's interested, there was a great 2005 version of Children by the dance group Angel City. It's called "Do You Know (I Go Crazy)", and it is a vocal version of Children, that samples the complete Robert Miles song

I totally loved "Children" and "One and One." Those songs are so beautiful. "Children" is probably the finest instrumental electronic song I've ever heard.
If you're wondering what happened to him, just look at his Wikipedia entry or his official web site:

His debut album Dreamland from 1996 is the one that had "Children", "Fable" and "One and One" on it. He's released three albums since then, in 1997, 2001, and 2004.
By the way, I didn't like Angel City's sampling of that song in 2005. They really ruined it.

They didn't really ruin it. The gorgeous singer Lara McAllen makes up for it. Anything with her in it is great http://www.inthe00s.com/smile/01/1luvu.gif

I heard a remix of "Children" in a club in ATL in 2003. 'twas cool to hear that in the set. :)
If you like stuff like that check out "The Gift" by Way Out West feat. Joanna Law from 1996.
