The wheels of the Rhythmonyx machine have been turning since 2008.

The Southland Times have described the sound as “big, funky bottom-line grooves from the lithe and muscular rhythm section, urgent, edgy Aotearoa raps and vocal stylings, insistent, chiming guitar and fluid brass harmonies with stabbing punctuation from the 3 piece horn section and dashes of electronica from soundman/MPC operator. Combined, their sound is a fresh, vibrant and obesely phat mash of Kiwi grooves, Pasifika beats, reggae chops, old-school British ska, hip-hop and electronica: impossible to define, wonderful to behold.”

Invercargill's 8 piece premier dub and dance band, Rhythmonyx are gearing up to breakout. With plenty of high-profile gigs in the past few years, Rhythmonyx have shared the stage with New Zealands biggest names in music such as Shapeshifter, Fat Freddy's Drop, Tiki Tane, Katchafire, Opshop, dDub, Hollie Smith, Opensouls, Ladi6 and Sunshine Sound System and have played support with international legends The Original Wailers and Dragon. As well as all this Rhythmonyx have played a huge variety of gigs, festivals and events around the south island and have a 6 track self-titled, self-produced, self-everything debut EP to offer their audiences at the end of one of their stonking, sweaty gigs.

With a sound somewhere between Dub and Hip Hop their stylistic mashups create a unique vibe and the enormous power Rhythmonyx generate live is infectious.
