Rhythm, dhol and bass: these are the three tenets held by brothers Kuldeep, Surjeet and Manjeet Singh Ral as the pioneering British Asian group RDB. Growing up performing the musical backing at their local gurdwara in Bradford, the Ral brothers gained innate knowledge of Northern Indian classical melodies. Mixed with the club music of their teenage years, they soon formulated a potent blend that lived up to their name: dancefloor rhythms, bhangra dhol, and UK bass. Finding a loyal, grassroots following with the release of their debut record, Rhythm Dhol Bass, in 2001, RDB produced hits such as the party staples “Woofer Test” and “Put Sardara De”, before going on to produce the propulsive fusion of the Urban Flavas and Danger mixtapes from 2001 to 2005. In recent years, and following the tragic death of their eldest brother Kuldeep in 2012, RDB have lent their distinctive sound to the technicolour storytelling of Bollywood films including Singh is Kinng and Tanu Weds Manu.
