coming straight out of melbourne with plentiful attitude, producer/multi-instrumentalist silentjay teams up with fellow hiatus kaiyote backing vocalist, jace xl to present sacrifice, a mini album of epic proportions. at once sincere and heartfelt, the songs do not shy away from the playful influence of 90s rnb - a sound that is a defining influence on this ep, which despite clocking in at just under 30 minutes, attains a level of artistry and conceptual cohesiveness that many artists could only dream of. another very serious record, from an impossibly fertile melbourne scene that is quickly becoming the envy of the world.

as spring dawns, rhythm section international go from local artist to a pair of very * local* artists - peckham’s very own chris watson + chris coupe, otherwise known as fyi chris , who present the ‘back in the millennium’ ep as the labels 5th offering. the ep was born after a rather hazy late night listening session at rhythm section hq, where bossman bradley zero was instantly beguiled by the duos hypnotic and rhythmically complex arrangements. the record begins abrasively with the trance-inducing mechanical stutter of back in the millennium , before shuffling into downbeat number * jeru* and then picks things up with the peak time groove of * need i say more* before bringing us back down to earth with the melancholic acid bump of * dedication*. early support from osunlade, mr.g, ryan elliott & damiano von eckhert. ready for club use.

matt jones spark for dance music was ignited in the late 1990s, as a youngster hearing tracks by fatboy slim, basement jaxx & the chemical brothers.

fyi chris back on the rhythm section mothership hot!

born out of a chance encounter in 2012 that led to a lasting friendship, rhythm section int’l & producer, dj, label boss, radio host, and record store owner ruf dug join forces to present ‘the committee....

australian group retiree return to rhythm section intl in 2018 with a new record house or home. the musical project of matt crowley, tori holleman and marco vella retiree have steadily congealed their broad influences into a unique emulsion of strongly rhythmic and emotional music. from two releases, theyve been described as pared back 1980s comfort pop for all occasions, having a whole lot of criss-crossing rhythm containing swirling synth flourishes, languid wistful vocals and strutting drum machines. the albums songs explore the theme of house or home and what that means in present day australia for different people. they journey from an aboriginal tent embassy on the south coast of new south wales, a retirement village, a one room flat in ringwood and a sleepless 17 hour stop over in malaysia.

after a debut outing on international black last year with his best friend mallard, lt graduates onto rhythm section intl with a stunning debut solo effort: forest floor.

rhythm section intl continues its quest to unearth the rawest new talent with this stellar debut from glaswegian duo ‘string theory’. opening up with the majestic ‘dirty high’ we’re treated to a symphony of modular synthesis, swelling strings and the bounciest drums we’ve heard in a long time. rarely has house music been so fun yet so musical. live bass-tip toes over an ocean of synth stabs and piano chords to create an anthemnic track that’s sure to be the soundtrack to long summer nights and early mornings…. we don’t know where the rs crew keep finding these gems, but long may it continue. string theory tick so many boxes we just can’t wait to hear more...

rhythm section are back with a sizzling eight-tracker from melbourne s hottest ensemble 30/70. melbourne has a lot to answer for. for anyone admiring the citys music scene from afar it would seem fair to wonder if there might be something in the water. 30/70 are the latest collective to emerge from this buzzing scene. elevate is a sublime statement, at once a cry for help and a call to arms, it balances delicate poetry and potent aggression with ease - all of this done with a beguiling pop sensibility. this collection of songs, their second studio effort after their debut lp, ‘cold radish coma , is set to elevate them to the international stage. under the management of wondercore island (hiatus kaiyote, oscar key sung, daniel merriweather) and with the release set to drop on bradley zeros rhythm section intl. (al dobson jr, silent jay x jace xl, henry wu), 30/70 are ready to take their message from northcote to the world.

making a splash with rs019 is a newcomer called mallard. discovered by bradley after being front and centre for almost every rs dance since 2016, the south london based producer and multi-instrumentalist makes a serious first impression with his debut ep ‘verte’.
currently studying jazz double-bass at trinity school of music, mallard’s productions demonstrate a keen ear for groove with a level of musicality rarely heard in electronic productions. at just 20 years old, he has already developed a unique sound palette and prodigious production style set to make him a name we will only hear more of in the years to come.
this ep, at once varied in tone and tempo is held together by a strong sonic identity and an overarching artistic vision: from the morphing polyrhythmic percussion of ‘surface’ to the shifting, heady pattern of ‘aquitaine’ via the psychedelic breaks of ‘untitled’ we are taken on quite the trip.
