Brought together not by blood, but by a mutual love of the lean, rhythmic electronic music emerging from the UKʼs African diaspora, LR Groove and Razzler Man – collectively known as Tribal Brothers – are each top producers in their own right, but share a singular vision when they join forces in the studio. The London-based artistsʼ history as a duo can be traced back as far as 2011, when they debuted under the alias with a two-track EP at the height of UK funkyʼs rise, but their sound has since gone on to encompass a gamut of influences across the club music spectrum, carrying hints of nascent, adjacent genres like amapiano.
Following a period of knuckling down to focus on their solo careers, the two DJs reconnected in 2018 over a Wetherspoons lunch for the history books, marking the start of a new chapter in their musical alliance as they co-founded an independent outlet for their productions: Renk Groove Recordings. Their next release would come via a different label, however; as the country ushered in a funky revival, they repurposed their signature style on an eponymous second EP, a four-track affair which landed later that year via TSVI and Wallworkʼs critically acclaimed Nervous Horizon.
After launching a SWU.FM residency and releasing a string of projects via their new imprint, the pair caught the eye of Livity Sound boss Peverelist, signing the Link Up EP, a collaboration with Bristolʼs DJ Polo, to his label in 2021. Putting thousands of new fans onto their music
