RDB (an acronym for Rhythm, Dhol, Bass) are a Punjabi DJ production team consisting of three Sikh brothers: Kuly, Manj, and Surj ya punda, who blend western genres with traditional Punjabi beats and vocals.

History

RDB are three Sikh brothers from Bradford. The oficial new addition to the group is Nindy Kaur, one of the brother's wife. Originally club DJs, the RDB brothers play a blend of bhangra, house, UK garage, Bollywood, RnB, hiphop, ragga, and dance music.

They have performed alongside celebrities including Tim Westwood, Mc Romeo, So Solid Crew, Shola Ama, The Dream Team, Misteeq, and UK Apachi. They have also worked with Bollywood film maker Vipul Shah on Namastey London and Singh Is Kinng.

They have also performed at the international acclaimed IFFA awards in the UK in 2007 and in Bangkok in 2008 alongside their friend, actor Akshay Kumar, and have a bi-weekly Saturday night radio show called The RDB After Party on Urbanfusion, which plays nationally on the Galaxy Radio Network.
