Deep #2

CAT #: BLUSLTD002 
ARTIST: NME CLICK 
A: CORNER SHOT 
B: GATOR
RELEASE DATE: 20.09.2013 

NME CLICK is at it again, bringing their rolling darkness to the Blu Saphir LTD. camp. 2013 has been a great year for the quartett, releasing Traffic, a collaboration between the four and Rregula & Dementia for Icarus Audio, as well as an incredible gig schedule, playing both festivals and clubnights like Sun And Bass, Sonne Mond & Sterne, Summerturn, FEEEL!, Breakzone and many more. 

A: CORNER SHOT A bit chunkier than the previous, Corner Shot still comes smashing through right out of the gate. Loaded orchestral stabs, low-end hoover bass, and brilliant layering of magnificent sounds, once the bass drops, you can expect total dancefloor annihilation. Reverberant splash cymbals ride out between textures of alien descent. Once the drums kick back in, the only place to go is straight to the bass bins (assuming you're not too tranced out and on another planet from a possible alien abduction). 

B: GATOR Receiving support from many of the scene's most solid talent, including Phil Tangent on his featured mix for FabricLive x Commercial Suicide, Gator is a lethal dose of blast-to-the-past monstrous darkness. Remember when you were a child and afraid of the monsters under your bed or in your closet? That's this type of tune. Gator puts you in the middle of a treacherous situation from the very beginning. Moody atmospheres, glitched-out stabs and heavily processed amens create this dangerous roller that all fans of mid-90s techstep will love. The bassline rumbles with such finesse, yet once this hits the dancefloor... BASSQUAKE.

Raw Q - Sweet VIPea **FREE DOWNLOAD!!**

Flying on a high from a successful year in 2013, North London based duo Tephra & Arkoze are back yet again to set the standard in 2014 with their deadly Concrete Rose EP. 

Expect all the twists and turns in today’s modern Drum and Bass sound with originality through out on tracks such as Clockwork and In Hell. Also on the EP, we have a collaboration with Marvelous Southstar on Concrete Rose and a naughty VIP of No Escape which caused quite a bit of damage last time round.  

We have no doubt that the same results will be expected this time as well!

FULL RELEASE : 27TH JANUARY 2014 CAT NUMBER : CRITLP06 FORMAT : DIGITAL / 2 x 2EP / LTD 10” EDITION
#UNDERGROUNDSONICS

Kicking off 2014 in the most spectacular fashion, Critical Music enters its 12th year with its biggest artist compilation to date. Painstakingly put together by label boss Kasra over the past year, ‘Underground Sonics’ is an exciting overview of modern day drum & bass, showcasing the true dexterity of one of the most well regarded, independent electronic music labels in the UK today. 
Kasra has pulled out all the stops, sifting through his phone book to enlist the talents of some of the biggest and most exciting producers in the game. Noisia, Dub Phizix, Enei, Phace, Sam Binga and Kasra himself all make sterling contributions that make for an album of the best of Underground Sonic expression.
It’s been a few years since our last fully fledged label compilation so I wanted to ensure this one was as vital as possible. For me this album truly encapsulates the essence of Critical, a balanced mix of all that’s exciting about this music - heads down lights out rollers, experimental side steps and some slightly more aggressive attention grabbers. This album is made up of tracks by the core Critical acts alongside a select group of label friends and for me is a snapshot of where the label is at now and where it is heading." Kasra

UNDERGROUND SONICS Tracklist:
1. Dub Phizix – The Clock Ticks 2. Ivy Lab - Baby Grey 3. Foreign Concept – Falling Stars ft. MC DRS 4. Sam Binga – Lef Dem ft. Redders 5. Mefjus & Inside Info – Repentence 6. Enei – Slender 7.

BLUS016 – ROY GREEN & PROTONE & BOKA BOKA

From the same grounds that house the rising Blu Saphir empire, Austrians Roy Green & Protone unleash a deep, techy and rolling duo of numbers – Tuesday Midnight Blues and Illusion. Originally formed in 2010 after a brief meeting at Austria’s Flex Club, the pair has accumulated signings with Fokuz Recordings, Citrus Recordings, Think Deep Recordings, and Textures Music Group. Future releases include collaborations on Fokuz, Citrus, Celsius, Soundtrax, Innerground, and many more. 

Be sure to give their Knowledge Mag guest mix a listen - http://www.beatsfortheplanet.com/2012/01/27/roy-green-protone-knowledge-magazine-guest-mix-26th-january-2012/

A: TUESDAY MIDNIGHT BLUES
B: ILLUSION

RELEASE DATE:  MARCH 2012

A. ILLUSION:

Rolling in with a variation of the infamous Shadowboxing break, multi-layered vocals ignite the flow of piano keys while esoteric soundscapes light up the horizon. A mighty crescendo drops Illusion into a pool of modulated, moving bass. As the break comes to pass, each instrument of the track reunites for a second time. Fans of Esoteric, Vampire UK, Darkestral, Influenza Media, Shogun, Exit, and Horizon should definitely give these two a go! 


B. TUESDAY MIDNIGHT BLUES:

Swooned in by lightly modulated atmospheres, the journey begins as pads echo upon a pulsating, melodic ocean. An eerie underlay leads in the brief female vocal, while warmth engulfs the magical number. Squelched bass rushes in past the one- minute mark, while the vocal becomes looped and more drawn out. 

Like the winter season, this piece of art is an endlessly evolving series of layers. Right when you believe Tuesday Midnight Blues is at its finest, another instrument gets thrown in. Absolutely brilliant start for Blu Saphir, Roy Green and Protone!


SUPPORT BY: Bailey, Enei, Marky, Big Bud, Stunna, MsDos, LJHigh, Cohere, Atmospherix, Jay Rome, Andi Sim, and M-Zine.
