Shades of Rhythm are a British electronic dance music trio hailing from Peterborough, England, that formed in the late 1980s. Composed of members Nick Slater, Lanx (Kevin Lancaster), and Rayan Gee, the group became one of the early frontrunners in the burgeoning rave and house music scenes in the UK. They carved out a niche for themselves with a series of club hits and vibrant live performances that captured the exuberant spirit of the times. Shades of Rhythm are perhaps best known for chart-topping tracks like "Sound of Eden" and "Extacy," which became anthems of the rave era, with their music defining the soundtrack for a generation of party-goers.
Through the years, the group has demonstrated remarkable longevity, adapting to changing tastes while retaining the core essence of their sound. Their recent releases, such as the "Sweet Sensation (2022 Remixes)" and the rhythmically revitalized "SOUND OF EDEN (Benny Page Remix)," reflects the band's ongoing relevance and ability to connect with both old fans and new listeners. Even three decades after their formation, Shades of Rhythm continue to release music that resonates within the dance music community, proving their enduring influence and commitment to their craft. Whether through nostalgic revisitations of their classic hits or through newer ventures like "Dance Among Strangers" and the "Fear Of The Future EP," the trio continues to showcase their capability to blend classic rave sensibilities with contemporary electronic music production.
