Rhythm Section Announce New EP From Gallegos
Bristol’s Rising Star Delivers a 90s Rave-Inspired Journey with 'Memories You’ve Memorised'
Oliver Gallegos is a name that's been buzzing around the global dance music scene, and it’s easy to see why. Hailing from Bristol, he’s been steadily building a reputation for his unique and innovative sound. His music has found a home on respected labels like Holding Hands, Banoffee Pies, Semi Delicious, and Permanent Vacation, while his regular gigs at legendary spots like Panorama Bar have solidified his status as a must-watch artist in the electronic world.
What sets Gallegos apart is his ability to connect on a deep, emotional level with his audience. He doesn’t just stick to one genre; instead, he creates music that feels. His debut EP for RS INTL captures the euphoric spirit of 90s rave culture, blending lush, swirling pads with slowed-down jungle beats, ethereal strings, and thought-provoking vocal samples. The result? A sound that’s pure joy—achieved not with artificial tricks, but with a rich mix of harmony, texture, and rhythm.
This five-track EP, which could easily be considered a mini-album, takes listeners on a 29-minute journey through carefully crafted soundscapes. Gallegos moves effortlessly between tracks that make you want to dance and more introspective, ambient pieces that feel like sonic meditations. The standout track, “Memories You’ve Memorised,” is already shaping up to be a future classic, combining Juno chords, arpeggiated church organs, and 80s vocal samples into a powerful, emotional crescendo.
With Memories You’ve Memorised, Oliver Gallegos has firmly established himself as a leading voice in modern electronic music. While he may draw inspiration from legends like Primal Scream, Underworld, and Aphex Twin, it’s clear that Gallegos is paving his own way and is on track to become a pioneer in his own right.
