RMS

Paul Currie, who records and performs as RMS, is a Canadian producer and DJ working in drum and bass and jungle. He is based in Barrie, Ontario and works primarily as a producer while also drawing on earlier experience as a turntablist.

RMS first encountered jungle and drum and bass in 1998 and began his involvement in the music as a turntablist. He moved into production around 2010 and his first commercial release arrived in 2014: the track "Reality Check" on DJ SS’s Formation Records. Since then he has placed music on labels including Dispatch Recordings, Program Records, Yard Recordings, Audio Addict Records and Jungle Cakes. He remains active in the Canadian and international underground drum and bass scene.

As a producer, RMS’s workflow is shaped by his turntablist background. He uses tight break edits and sample-based phrasing in his arrangements, and his productions emphasise percussive clarity and bass-layer management — edits and sequencing that translate well to DJ sets. Those production traits show through on releases that sit between classic jungle aesthetics and contemporary DnB rollers, which is reflected by his appearances on labels that programme both styles.

Concrete career highlights tied to verifiable releases include the 2014 "Reality Check" single on Formation Records and subsequent releases across Dispatch Recordings, Program Records, Yard Recordings, Audio Addict Records and Jungle Cakes. Beyond studio work, RMS’s origins as a turntablist indicate practical experience with vinyl mixing and set construction, skills he carries into live DJ performances.

Public biographical detail about specific influences or artist-to-artist collaborations beyond the labels and release history above is limited. What is documented: introduction to jungle/DnB in 1998, a transition from turntablism to production around 2010, and a first release in 2014 on DJ SS’s Formation Records. Those milestones map the factual through-line of RMS’s profile in the scene.
