Rhys Sfyrios, better known as Restricted, is hard to be missed online. The 24-year-old, stand-out producer has captivated the digital sphere with an impressive following - over 1 million social media followers, 14 million TikTok likes & 100 million Instagram views. Yet, it's his unwavering dedication to music that truly defines his presence.

Hailing from Adelaide, Australia, Restricted has made notable strides in music production, transitioning through various styles before anchoring himself in the hard-techno scene. Taking his fans along for the ride, Restricted delivers content that leaks his personality into his productions. With 100 million+ streams in three years & features on top editorial streaming platforms (including but not limited to: Apple Music’s “Dance in Spatial Audio”, Spotify’s & "Dance Generation" & "Hit Dance Floor"), it’s clear that his ever-growing music journey is just scratching the surface of what’s yet to unfold.

Restricted’s impact extends beyond online music streams & social media metrics. He is expanding the music culture in his hometown, quite literally through his own production & promotion company called ‘Culture'. Culture events have now filled the missing space in Adelaide’s music scene, with its last event drawing 5,000 attendees in one of Australia’s toughest markets. The tailored production & curated lineups speak highly of Restricted’s deep understanding within the current music space. Culture continues to be at the forefront of music events in Australia, as one of the premium, must-see festivals.

With only a few years grinding in the scene, Restricted has built an impressive resume that is continuously evolving. In addition to launching his new production imprint Revive Records, he has rocked stages around the world from steamy, packed warehouses in Europe, Asia & North America to prominent festivals such as Airbeat One, 808, Ultra Australia, Parookaville & more. With his notorious hard-hitting basslines & ground-shaking kicks, Restricted paves his way to be a leader in the hard-techno space to come out of Australia.
