Music was influenced by the rhythmic and pulsing dance music of the mid 90’s loved by their two older sisters. At the start of the second millennium, Rafael & Selwyn revolutionized their style after being wowed by their first club experience. The way the DJ’s delivered their hypnotic sound and controlled the crowd stunned and awed the new DJ duo. From that very moment, RNS was born. Rafael & Selwyn decided to pursue music full throttle and full speed ahead, both in energy and sound. Craving more knowledge, in 2007 they attended Full Sail University, which Rolling Stone Magazine named one of the five best music programs in the country. They each earned a degree in the Recording Arts Program and interned with XM Radio at its Washington DC Headquarters for the Hits and Dance Channel. Inevitably, the energy the two produce together make for a dynamic duo. They feed off each other’s energy, drive, and creativity, and it shows in their exciting live performances. Rafael & Selwyn know how to work well together and for their musical audiences. Their creative abilities and musical gifts combine to create a tough, sexy, grooving thumping vibe which their fans adore. 

After many years of hard work and experience, RNS has opened up for such global acts as: Chus & Ceballos, Oscar G, Pete Tong, Uner, Saeed Younan, Thievery Corporation, Booka Shade, Pleasurekraft, Stacey Pullen, Timo Maas, D-Formation, Guy J, Robbie Rivera, Funkerman, Armand Van Helden, 16bit Lolita's, and Steve Aoki. They have played for power house electronic venues and parties such as Glow, Flash, U Street Music Hall, DAYGLOW (The World’s Largest Paint Party) 930 club and Echostage. They got their big break when Paul Oakenfold used one of their samples in the remix he did with Pharrel Williams in “Sex N Money”. RNS has signed to Toolroom Records in 2013 "Mosca", Baroque Records in 2011 for “Release” and 2010 for “Pegasus”. Their sound is House, Afro, Tech House, Indie dance, with latin influences and spacey synths which make you want to move and groove.
