Gorilla Tactics Music is an urban electronic record label in Perth, Australia releasing predominantly Drum & Bass, Hip Hop and other Bass Music genres. It publishes and manages a number of artists including it's name-sake, the group Gorilla Tactics.

Gorilla Tactics the artist and the associated record label are the brainchild of Scotty "MC Assassin" Schmid. Almost two decades in the game, Scotty Assassin grew up in the 80s in a small town in North Queensland surrounded by Reggae, Hip Hop, the best Rugby League Origin team and people with three toes.

Moving with his family to Perth as a teenager, he began writing hip hop and performing at events with scene legends like DJ Cut Nice, Criminal Force and Sugar Ray. As a young, angsty, uncontrollable 18 year old little shit, he attended a rave in the late 90s and listened as the MCs bubbled over the Jungle and Drum & Bass tracks. 

That was it. He found where he wanted to be.

Since asking for "a go on the mic" in 1999, he has toured the world with Drum & Bass royalty Ray Keith, Ragga Twins, Kenny Ken, Fearless, Tee Bee, Bad Company and Dieselboy. He's taken out 8 Perth Dance Music Best MC Awards, released over 30 tracks with Greg Packer, MC Top Cat, Stamina and more. He's also a complete fucking nerd and none of his family actually think he is cool because they know better.

In 2012, Scotty created his independent record label and solo project: Gorilla Tactics. Releasing a few bangers and a few shit ones, 2017 has seen the Gorilla family settle into it's groove and added to the one-man wolf pack:

MC Kronic D
A childhood mate of Scotty's, MC Kronic D co-founded the group "Karnal Knowledge" with Assassin in 1994. Shortly afterwards, they turned 18 and it seemed a little creepy, changing the name to the legendary RPG, convincing about 20 Rockingham yobbos to get it tattooed on their arms and necks. Well played, boys.

In the 2000's Kronic released his first solo album "Rank & File" bringing strong political subjects to the fore in his highly unique, razor sharp, Cypress-Hillesque style that sets him apart from any other Australian Hip Hop artist. With his background in both Hip Hop and Jungle, Kronic has reunited with Scotty, joining the Gorilla Family into it's rebirth in 2017.

Dj Jools
Born into the conflict of Central America, Julio Garcia aka Dj Jools moved to Perth Australia in 1991, so you know the guy is a badass. In 1994 he was introduced to Hardcore Techno by a school friend and in 1996 attended his first rave and instantly fell for the lure for the sound of Jungle. Known for his legendary diverse musical spectrum and versatility, Jools is a staple on the Perth circuit at both events & radio shows, representing the sounds of House, Electro, Techno, Trance, Hard House, Rave, Hardcore, Jungle and Drum & Bass.

With a large influence from the sounds of Jungle you will often find Dj Jools mixing up the sounds of Old Skool, Dubstep, Breaks and Drum & Bass somewhere in the city almost every weekend of the Perth calendar. 2016 saw Dj Jools hitting the studio producing some big sounds of Drum & Bass on a Jungle tip, his debut single High Rolling EP is out now on Little Rascal Records. In 2017, without even a shadow of doubt, Scotty Assassin asked Jools to add the finishing touch to the Gorilla Tactics war machine.
