Rhythm & Sound, or more commonly known as R&S Records is a staple in the electronic music scene and is hitting a milestone next year, with 30 years of delivering the finest (and essential) tunes in dance music history. To celebrate their crowning achievement, the R&S team is releasing a 30-track compilation aptly titled 30 Years of R&S Records, chronicling moments from their 3-decade reign. While most of their catalog are tunes that have widely been regarded as techno classics or staples within the scene (see Model 500, Kenny Larkin, Ken Ishii), they have released music from all walks of the electronic scale, from Aphex Twin, Dillinja, D Bridge, and their more upfront artists like Tessela, Blawan, Space Dimension Controller, and Teengirl Fantasy.
30 Years of R&S Records is available digitally on October 21; pre-order today.
