A.k.a. Rob Currie

The last couple of years have seen the global invasion heralded by the Rhythm Punkz to bag sets at some of the world’s best nights and renowned venues such as Roger Sanchez - Release Yourself @ Ministry of Sound, Harry Choo Choo’s Bambosa Records @ SE One Club, Pasha , Yes Club in China and Ibiza. As the growing success with their productions has increased releasing on BIT Records in Mexico, one of Italy’s biggest labels Stranamente Music Group and Vinyl Pusher in Australia so too have the remixes which include Empire Of The Sun championed by Radio One’s Annie Mac got bigger. Others include; Sound For Rent, Toy Robots, Muse, Trans X and Spin Monkeys. This announced them onto the bigger international circuit and since then they have taken their 4 deck EFX show to Canada, Slovenia, China, Ibiza, Italy, Germany, Iceland and Poland. The pair held down a successful weekly radio show on the UK’s Future Radio FM station which has an audience listener base of more than 20,000 people each week and with guest such as Graeme Park, Kris Darang and Junior Jay, Dave Beer, Touché and Steve Bug their Saturday night mixture of interviews, mixes, gig reviews and artist spotlight features meant the show grew over the two years they presented. Going back to the beginning the Rhythm Punkz originally came from the UK Drum & Bass scene and under the guise Co-Ordinate enjoyed massive chart success with the hit “You Got Me Burning” in 2002 along side DJ Peshay, this saw them tour Europe playing Festivals such as the Big Chill, Glastonbury and Sonic Dance Festival in Switzerland. They continued with an album in 2003 but then moved to House Music and formed the Rhythm Punkz. 2010 brings a change of surroundings for the Punkz as they relocate to Australia permanently and it looks set to be a very exciting year with productions already due on Chris Lake’s label Rising Music, some big remixes and an even bigger 4 deck + Ableton live show.
