Robert Rental

Robert Rental (born Robert Donnachie, 1952-2000) was a Scottish electronic musician from Port Glasgow and part of the British DIY post-punk scene of the late 1970s. He is known for the home-recorded 1978 single Paralysis and for The Bridge, his 1979 album with Thomas Leer, issued by Throbbing Gristle's Industrial Records. Rental grew up with Leer in Port Glasgow, and by the late 1970s both had moved to London, where they played in the punk band Pressure. Leer helped him record Paralysis.
