New Zealand guitarist and experimental musician. Credited with the 1998 album All Cracked Medias.

Associated with avant-garde and experimental music; reviewed work references influences such as John Cage and Brian Eno (as noted in the DeBaser review).

A single DeBaser review (Jesper) celebrates Dean Roberts' 1998 album All Cracked Medias as an important avant‑garde work while warning that the listening experience is challenging and patient. The review highlights the 26‑minute opener "Kompakt Arcade" and references influences such as John Cage and Brian Eno.

For:Listeners of experimental, avant-garde and ambient guitar music; those who accept patient, challenging recordings.

 "The New Zealand guitarist/experimenter Dean Roberts is credited with ‘All Cracked Medias’, 1998, a masterpiece of late-century avant-garde. Roberts has spent half his career documenting on record the very process of musical creation, according to a philosophy of sound that has as its reference the randomness of John Cage. But, like many recent avant-garde leaders, he could not avoid the confrontation with the recovery of pure acoustic sound."
