It's been a year of change and evolution for Brian Cid.  After starting off with his 'Be One' EP on Endangered, and further releases on Bar 25 and Infinite Depth, he's also moved to Berlin, and recently resumed touring after a self-imposed break.  To close out 2021, Brian comes full circle with 'Time Is Liquid' and a return to his Endangered label.

Here is the background of the project from Brian's own words:

'Time is liquid and forever changing, adjusting & shaping itself to fulfill our deepest unconscious desires. Time gives us life, as water does, purifying our dusty karmic energy. I consider this project another chapter of the evolution of my sound. I believe that I slide into interesting territories never explored before. This EP reflects the manifestation of my deepest expression of self-empowerment. A very minimal musical approach, yet filling and grandiose. A true intergalactic flight.

My intention was to show a bit more of my rhythmic roots, in conjunction with my forward thinking approach in the world of sounds. I am playing with different possibilities of colors and shades going from subtle movement to intense distortion, from loops to chord progressions. Complex rhythms, patterns, and breaks that will pull you inside a blackhole, making sense to the underlying story of my curious mind.

For the first time I was conscious about adding subtle merengue rhythms played with the sounds of a traditional Dominican tambora, one of its most prestigious percussive instruments and one of deep impact. The very root of this island's rhythmic pattern. This idea can be clearly experienced in 'Nostalgia' and 'Bayahibe', which by the way, is named after one of the most beautiful tropical beaches on this planet, Playa Bayahibe. This is my way to honor the land that saw me flourish, giving me so much.

A sudden experimental left turn takes place in the track 'Sombras Amigas'. A play of acoustic piano with a very housey timber and a thick grungy synth bass that breaks the barrier of time as they interact in sync with each other as two lovers dancing. 'Sombras Amigas' has been designed to be played at a very specific time and place. It was created live during one of my last Masterclasses, so up and coming producers and engineers were able to see and experience my writing process. It's an honor to now make it available to you all. This is the true essence of our Endangered sound. Enjoy it!'

Brian Cid's Time Is Liquid EP is released on Endangered Records, December 17th, 2021.

ENDGRD021 - Brian Cid // Time Is Liquid

@miridamusic

Back with his 3rd release for the label, Mirida returns to Endangered with Hidden Pattern; a 3-track EP of varied and stand out melodic techno creations. 
With more than 20 years of constructing his own philosophy of sounds, Mirida has been steadily building a uniqueness to his music that always has a concept and meaning behind the music.  This intellectual quality is one of the main features that attracted Endangered curator Brian Cid to Mirida’s productions.   Following up his first 2 EP’s Aborigen, and Under Hypnosis, along with his recent appearance on the Worlds Within Thee series, Mirida triumphantly comes back to Endangered with the Hidden Pattern EP.

The title track starts the journey off with a hypnotic, tribal beat and a bassline that rocks the listener back and forth into a trance.  A vocal sample takes center stage during the breakdown heightening the experience, and snaps you back into reality once the beat returns.  “Millennium Falcon” follows, and the tribal style of the previous track now moves into cosmic territory as the title suggests.  Deep, melodic textures weave in and out throughout, and will have you lost in thought trying to decipher the complex patterns created.  To close the release, “Cross My Mind” is a cluster of dark melodic techno sounds, water-like percussive elements, and a female vocal sample that adds a striking contrast.  Delicate melodic synths, subtle guitar plucks, and a trippy use of effects combine to make the closer a profound package of stripped-back techno deepness.

El Velorio Del Ego is a full musical ride designed for the dance floor, inspired by the after hours scene around the world. A collection of six tracks that are infused by hypnotic loops and a collage of sounds that fills the full spectrum of the eardrum.  A playful take on syncopated beats, odd time signatures, rhythms & acoustic tones, as well as funky electric guitars combined with thick bass lines and invasive kicks that glue all elements as one.

"After years traveling the world, living and carefully studying the impact of sound and the science of vibrations, I bring you a musical proposal with the purpose of accentuating the powerful force of Dominican Republic's rhythm section güira & tambora, on a dance floor of electronic music. In an environment where vibrations cause the body to enter a hypnotic trance, thus achieving an energetic delivery of spiritual healing. Music & dance in its pure essence... " - Brian Cid

@briancid

Brian Cid circles back to his heralded Endangered imprint to deliver his first solo release for the label in over 2 years.

Returning to his hypnotic & progressive roots, Brian Cid presents Observe / Immerse in the Sound; 2 powerful tracks each containing deep vocal messages and a striking display of his production mastery.  After years of playing these tracks out and receiving incredible crowd reactions, they’ve been meticulously refined & perfected, and are finally ready to be unleashed into the world.

Brian describes the concepts behind each track:

‘“Observe’ is a doorway to a higher dimension. Beyond a track, this is a guide into one of meditation’s most powerful questions: How do we enter the meditative state, and remain there?  With catchy chords, a steady groove and harmonies that speak to the heart, I crafted this piece to be open and inviting for anyone to step into this soundscape.

‘Immerse In The Sound’ invites you deeper into our Endangered universe. Layers of swirling synths, sweeping pads, a thick bass line and dreamy jazz-infused pianos & trumpets all create a space that pulls you in. My voice weaves through it all, offering clear instructions: let go, surrender and simply: Immerse In The Sound.

Both of these tracks have created epic moments on dance floors around the world, and now the Endangered family and I are very glad to share them with you.”

Brian Cid’s Observe / Immerse in the Sound is released October 3, 2025 on Endangered Records.

ENDGRD029 - Brian Cid // Observe / Immerse In The Sound

@ramusicofficial

An upcoming talent based out of Mexico City, Raúl Contreras (Ra) is part of the new wave of artists breaking through in the Mexican electronic music scene.  His music flows effortlessly between an energetic style of progressive house and melodic techno, a natural fit for the sound of Endangered.  Upon hearing some of his demos, Brian Cid invited Ra to put together an EP, and the result is The Sky Above Us - a brilliant debut on Endangered.

The EP begins with the title track, and in true Endangered style, a sense of tension and drama is created with its cinematic breakdowns.  Many layers of synths weave in and out throughout, which adds to the vibe of this trippy opener.  Following is “Midnight Escargots”, and it brings a combination of dark & haunting synths with a pulsating techno beat.   One can visualize themselves running through a dimly lit cave with this track, and it has a groove that keeps the energy rising throughout.

The dark, but melodic techno theme continues with the 3rd track “My Ghosts”.  A deep, rumbling bass can be felt in your stomach here, and a subtle vocal during the break adds to the eeriness.  The mood is lightened slightly with the concluding “When Our Time Comes”.  The progressive and hypnotic feeling from the opener returns here with its trippy arpeggiated synths, and it signals that this chapter has now come to an end.

“This is a very special EP for me.  It’s the result of my introspective journey throughout the isolation.  I wanted to reach an introspective and deep journey into ourselves through emotions.  Thank you to my Endangered family.” - Ra

Ra’s The Sky Above Us EP is released on Endangered Records, July 9, 2021.

Release Info: 
Brooklyn-bred Brian recently moved to Berlin and has returned to touring after an enforced break during the pandemic. Before that, he has quickly risen through the ranks and released on Bar 25, Infinite Depth and Balance, who put out his album ‘Meteorite Man’. The international press has been quick to single Brian out as one to watch and influential artists like Richie Hawtin and Tale of Us have played his music. Endangered is a label but also an event series that combines music with live performance and art, and this new EP is another fine example of its sound.

Says Brian of this latest release “Time is liquid and forever changing, adjusting & shaping itself to fulfill our deepest unconscious desires. Time gives us life, as water does, purifying our dusty karmic energy. I consider this project another chapter of the evolution of my sound. I believe that I slide into interesting territories never explored before. This EP reflects the manifestation of my deepest expression of self-empowerment. A very minimal musical approach yet filling and grandiose. A true intergalactic flight.”

Opener 'Time is Liquid' is a slow-burning deep techno roller that soon casts its spell. The vast drums and warm bass are detailed with a menacing synth lead and a constant sense of tension that keeps you locked in for the ride. 'Nostalgia' cuts a little looser, with jumbled percussion and bouncing kicks encouraging you to shake every limb. Deft synth work marbles the groove with a subtle sense of hope and light as this quietly arresting track rolls late into the night. The excellent 'Sombras Amigas' is another stylish mix of smooth and seductive drums and well-crafted synth work that entrances you as it unfolds with a hint of cosmic magic. Lastly, 'Bayahibe' is a lush melodic track with rich percussion, an array of mesmerising sounds and an overall sense of beauty that brings something fresh to the dance floor.

The ‘Time Is Liquid’ EP shows off Brian Cid's hugely considered and stylish sound in all its glory.

Premiere: Brian Cid - Sombras Amigas [Endangered]

@briancid

Brian Cid’s Endangered Records starts off its 2022 release schedule with the 3rd instalment of Worlds Within Thee; a recurring series featuring both new and returning talent from all around the globe.

As with the previous editions, Worlds Within Thee III is a carefully curated 5-track EP displaying the evolution of Endangered’s powerful & melodic sound. Brian Cid shares his thoughts on the EP:

“Our story continues with our special series and we welcome with great pleasure, a group of highly talented artists from around the world, many already familiar to you through our past releases. These are individuals who have travelled to worlds within, only to find a home in the Endangered sonic space.

Throughout the year we have carefully curated this selection based on each artist’s unique expressions, allowing us to push our sound forward. Filled with dark grooves, hypnotic melodies and a driving beat, this release tells a continuous story designed to be perceived from beginning to end. I have personally put my technical touch to glue them together and brace it with the vibration we are known for.

Worlds Within Thee is a self exploratory experience that taps into our subconscious inner worlds, with the only intention of exploring deeper layers of self. We hope you truly enjoy the third volume of our series.”

Making their debut on the label, American duo Bad Eye begin our journey with “Fated Vessel”. Liftoff is engaged with the pulsing synths and driving beat pushing us into orbit. Gravity is reduced as the track progresses, the filter opens up as the stars become clearer, and when the beat drops it signals that we’ve officially broken through the atmosphere. Endangered resident artist Mirida from Russia follows with “Optical Illusion”. A feeling of tension is created with the hypnotic percussion & deep groove, and the guitar breakdown builds to the unknown that is to come next. Hypnosis continues towards the end as layers of melody appear, and the serene state is now unbreakable as we realize there is no turning back.

First appearing on the second edition of Worlds Within Thee, Swiss artist Normen Hood returns to the label with “Follow The Cubes”. A dreamy synth melody exists throughout, making this track flow like an artist painting. Arpeggiated synths pan back and forth entwined with the progressive melody throughout, and it flows as the perfect connector of energy from the beginning to the second half of the EP. The energy rises once again with “Hassium”, a collaboration between Argentinian artists German Angeleri, and Larrosa & Gardoqui. We’re now past the mid-point in this trip, and full melodic techno power is reached with the driving beat and sharp synths here. Our heart-rate rises as there is a sense of being closer to our destination, and the constant rising pitch of the melody does nothing to slow it down. To conclude this chapter of Worlds Within Thee, Brian Cid contributes the sonic masterpiece “Into The Abyss”. Layers of sound come at you and then retreat to make way for the next wave, and deep melodies resonate throughout this intelligent & thought-provoking progressive masterclass. A euphoric feeling takes over once we realize our destination is within reach, and it continues as another chapter comes to a close.

Premiere: Mirida - Keep My Eyes Open - Endangered

Observe / Immerse In The Sound

Brian Cid - Immerse In The Sound (Original Mix)

@briancid
Brian Cid circles back to his heralded Endangered imprint to deliver his first solo release for the label in over 2 years.

Returning to his hypnotic & progressive roots, Brian Cid presents Observe / Immerse in the Sound; 2 powerful tracks each containing deep vocal messages and a striking display of his production mastery.  After years of playing these tracks out and receiving incredible crowd reactions, they’ve been meticulously refined & perfected, and are finally ready to be unleashed into the world.

Brian describes the concepts behind each track:

‘“Observe’ is a doorway to a higher dimension. Beyond a track, this is a guide into one of meditation’s most powerful questions: How do we enter the meditative state, and remain there?  With catchy chords, a steady groove and harmonies that speak to the heart, I crafted this piece to be open and inviting for anyone to step into this soundscape.

‘Immerse In The Sound’ invites you deeper into our Endangered universe. Layers of swirling synths, sweeping pads, a thick bass line and dreamy jazz-infused pianos & trumpets all create a space that pulls you in. My voice weaves through it all, offering clear instructions: let go, surrender and simply: Immerse In The Sound.

Both of these tracks have created epic moments on dance floors around the world, and now the Endangered family and I are very glad to share them with you.”

Brian Cid’s Observe / Immerse in the Sound is released October 3, 2025 on Endangered Records.

Brian Cid - Observe (Original Mix)

Endangered Records reveals the next chapter in Brian Cid’s rapid ascent as a true ambassador of melodic techno.

Since launching Endangered with his Third Eye Shut EP, Brian Cid’s studio output has seen him appear on Tale of Us’ fabric 97 compilation, on Natura Sonoris with a remix for Henry Saiz, and also a collaboration with Justin Marchacos on Endangered’s second release.  It’s now time for the Brooklyn-based DJ, producer and sound engineer to return full force to the label with Intriga, an EP filled with an abundance of Brian’s signature emotional journeys, and deep percussive themes.  

“Intriga EP is a sonic exploration to the deep side of melodic techno. It presents a story from beginning to end” says Brian. “Heavy on the drums as it's written for the dance floor, each one presenting a bold statement, more than mood tracks these are room shakers designed to impact. Written in the span of a year, I focused on using classic drum machines, modular and analog synths/pads as well as organic elements. This is my signature sound - this project doesn't belong anywhere else other than on Endangered.” 

Opening the five-track release, “The Space Above” quickly sets an atmosphere of deep textures, before diving into bursting chords that lead into the hypnotically driven “Fantasio”.  Loaded with reverberating hi-hats and snares, percussion heavy “Petalos Sole” prepares listeners for the tension building lead title track “Intriga”, as its main motif journeys through waves of effects and striking synths.  Rounding out the EP with its longest offering, “Vacio” features a futuristic arpeggiating melody between echoing pads and scattered crescendos. 

Further solidifying Brian Cid as a worthy flag carrier of the new wave of deep eclectic dance music, this EP is sure to make an impression on today’s top tune selectors and educated listeners.

Endangered Records is set to release Light In The Lotus EP, the return to the label from founder @briancid.

After ending last year with the release of his debut album on Balance Music, Brian has been on a global tour in support of it. It’s taken him everywhere from Zurich, Moscow and Berlin, to Mexico City, Hawaii, and Cairo. The album was critically acclaimed by his peers, fans and the media, with Billboard featuring him in their ‘Ones To Watch’ section. With his first release of 2019, Brian continues the journey of lush & melodic techno started with the album, and is back on his own Endangered imprint with the Light In The Lotus EP.

The title track opens the release and features the first ever time of Brian using his own vocals. The cosmic beats merge perfectly with his infectious hook on ‘Light In The Lotus’, and those words also contain a deep personal meaning for Brian. ’Species of the Other Kind’ follows, and is aimed right at the dance floor. This one works well during the peak time hours, with unbridled energy from its arpeggiated synths. The pace is then switched up for the second half of the release, with ‘Spirals’ bringing forth more of a melodic and emotional vibe. ‘Melting Clock’ concludes the EP and builds tension with Brian’s signature extended breakdown, before ending the journey and setting the listener back down to earth.

Brian describes the EP: “While learning to enjoy the magical journey of life, this musical project turns into a clear reflection of how my story unfolds. To take it even further and give it stronger personal touch, I’ve printed my own vocals on it, although it was not part of the plan. As I wrote and recorded the reference vocals for another artist, I realized it only made sense for me to be the one reciting it. ‘I see the light in the lotus / inside of me there is a roar’. A state of mind that drifts towards the strongest level of enlightenment powerful as a lion’s roar, impacting earth with its presence. This four tracker continues the musical story of my last album Meteorite Man. Forward thinking driving beats, with a sophisticated touch of subtlety and power. Pronounced melodies diving deeper into a dramatic story. I aimed to push my sound even further just as I have pushed my body, mind & spirit.”

Brian Cid’s “Light In the Lotus EP” is released on Endangered Records on May 31st, 2019

For his first EP of 2020, Brian Cid returns to his Endangered imprint with Be One; 4 powerful tracks flowing seamlessly between melodic techno & progressive house.

Last year saw Brian Cid continue the development of his Endangered label with the release of his Light In The Lotus EP, the signing of upcoming talent from all over the world, the launch of a new VA series, and label-branded events held everywhere from Brooklyn & Miami, to Canada, India, and The Dominican Republic.  After a recent EP on Audiofly’s Supernature label, and a remix on Fur Coat’s Odd:ity, Brian is back on his own creative outlet with Be One. 

“Monocerotis” is the first track on the release, and starts it off with a brooding techno vibe.  Multiple listens are required to decipher the brilliant layering of sounds weaving in & out, leading to a tension-building breakdown, and supported with a foundation of subtle tribal drums.  The journey continues on more of a progressive tip with the second track, “Cometas Y Cometas”.  As with all of Brian’s releases, a story is being told, and in this chapter the listener is made to feel like they’re floating to the next destination with the dreamy vibe created here.

Following is the title track “Be One”, which is the origin of the concept behind the project.  Brian explains: “After experiencing a deep travel in my worlds within, I became One. One with my energy & sounds. Vibrations. On this journey, we are taking a ride where the atmosphere opens up as broken sky, and the rhythms of the land breathe deep in your body. A healing shower of sounds with a live, analogue and digital feel; a sea of possibilities”. “Fill The Void” is the finale, and this story ends with a banger.  Driving melodic techno, combined with synth work bouncing back & forth; this is Brian Cid at his deepest & darkest.

Justin Marchacos // Megalithic Structures LP - Out Now on Endangered

Tracklist:
1.	The Traveller
2.	Invasion 
3.	Megalithic Structures (w/ @midas104) 
4.	Pas de Chance 
5.	Noose 
6.	Pursuit

Justin Marchacos returns to Brian Cid’s Endangered label with Megalithic Structures; a 6 track LP of powerful melodic techno & progressive house, which includes a collaboration with Berlin’s Midas 104.

Based in NYC, and a core artist of Endangered, Justin Marchacos has been steadily growing his profile since his first release on the imprint in 2018. As the follow up to his most recent EP on the legendary Cocoon label last year, this package of all originals is his largest artistic output to date, and a bold expression of his current musical direction.

“The Traveller” starts it off, and his background as a film composer is on full display with an extended orchestral intro. When the beat kicks in, high energy is shown right from this first track and the tone is set. “Invasion” follows and contains a heavy groove, stripped back production, and chopped up vocal samples that all create a fantastic swing. The title track “Megalithic Structures” is next up, and is the collaboration with Midas 104. Justin’s style, combined with Midas 104’s signature melancholic deep house and dreamy synths, creates a perspective of the sound of the future while at the same time referencing empires of old. “Pas de Chance” follows, and is the most driving track of the album and the apex of this plot. “Noose” signals a change in direction towards a more progressive sound, and “Pursuit” is the closer with full emotions released to end this chapter.

Justin describes the project: ““Feeling completely blessed to have the opportunity at this moment in my life to share some of the most powerful stories I’ve written... stories which bring strong, raw emotions to the listener. I wrote these in my own language... a language that is a reflection of my personality, but can be understood by anyone in the world. This is the beauty of music. I want my listeners to experience strange and unusual emotions...not just simple happiness and sadness, but feelings of gritty confidence, power mixed with bliss, wonder mixed with driving momentum, and pure joy. This collection of tracks has been years in the making, but firmly reflects my current aesthetic and the direction I’ve been moving as an artist. These tracks all have a very strong, personal meaning to me... and I could not be more excited to finally share them with the world.”

Alongside Be One, his last EP on Endangered, Brian Cid has had a plethora of releases already this year, with originals on Lost & Found and Flying Circus, and remixes on Oddity & Einmusika.  The music has been flowing for Brian during this challenging time in the world, and We Will Rise is one of his most powerful releases in recent memory.  There are two distinct sides to this EP, one of descending and the other of emerging, which seems to reflect both the world’s current climate, and a sense of hope for the future.  

“Fiesta del Chivo” starts things off with dark & driving tribal rhythms, reminiscent of a ritualistic fire taking place in a futuristic jungle.  The track is based on the novel The Feast of the Goat by Mario Vargas Llosa, and carries a political connotation that reflects the recent changes in human consciousness.  The title track “We Will Rise” follows, and while still submerged in Brian’s signature dark melodic techno, there is a sense of being uplifted after this track is complete.  The second half of the EP switches gears to a more progressive vibe, and your trip has officially begun with “Confessions Of The Red Rattlesnake”.  A rock solid groove, combined with jedi-level production techniques give you a feeling of a distorted reality, and will have you floating throughout this one.  The tribal-style rhythms return in “Mil Mentiras Y La Verdad” (A Thousand Lies and the Truth), but this time in a different way given the progressive nature of the track.  Tension builds throughout, the journey of the EP starts to end, and this track is a fitting way to emerge with a sense of purpose.

Ever philosophical, and using this current time in the world to self-reflect, Brian gives his thoughts behind the music with a positive mindset:  “My soul dives boundless into the abyss as the world continues to resonate in distorted ways. It turns out I am experiencing the illusion of chaos while being deeply invested in the understanding that the moon shines brighter at the cusp of the night. Without an inch of doubt, we will rise. We always do because it is, in many ways, the true essence of the human experience. Otherworldly messages speak about the existence of the perfect order behind all chaos and repeated patterns of evidence have supported this throughout the history of humankind and beyond. We will rise as the sun rises after furious storms. And we will rise limitless and fearlessly as one. This wordless story embodies sequences of rhythms of ancient order. Expressed in pure and sincere forms through a powerful and exuberant sound. Dramatic by nature because, if you had just only one chance to clap, how loud would it be?”

Brian Cid’s Endangered Records presents the debut of Steve Fokas to the label, with a 6-track journey through the realm of melodic techno.

Steve Fokas hails from the city of Philadelphia in the U.S., with family origins from the Greek Islands. A multi-instrumentalist, self-taught musician & producer, he fell in love with electronic music immediately after discovering his true potential in it. Since then, Brian Cid has been working closely with Steve and his music to prepare his debut release as an artist: “I’ve known Brian for quite some time now and I always loved the early Endangered work he used to show me when we were in the studio together” says Steve. “I resonated a lot with those sounds and how bold the tracks were and he most definitely influenced me and pushed me to not shy away from creating exactly what I want to create and allowing my natural vibrations shine through.”

The title track “Prophet” is the opener in Steve’s debut, and in true Endangered style, contains cinematic builds with waves of synths coming at the listener to start things off. “Leo” follows, and its melody, groove, and claps give it a Latin-style vibe perfect for when the sun is retreating for the day. Elements of darkness appear in the third track “Estrela”, which is equally effective on a dance floor, or cruising around at night, with its driving, arpeggiated synths. The energy rises with the kick & hi hat groove in “Neptune”, and deep & dark tension is created with the lead melody. The apex of this story is reached during “Meteora”, with its deep synth stabs building the energy to reach the peak of the party with full power. “Vision” is the finale, and provides closure by dialling back on the energy, and focusing on the melody to close this chapter.

Steve discusses his thoughts on releasing on Endangered, as well as his EP: “Endangered taps into something deeper and more natural and Prophet is a perfect reflection of the deeper more natural styles of music I was feeling during these solitary first few months of quarantine. The tracks are minimal and intense at times which I think reflects how this forced isolation has felt for many of us. The dreamy melodic synths give those intense moments a bit of hopefulness which comes from all of the day dreaming I've done about the moment we can finally get back to "normal."

Last year saw the launch of Endangered’s annual VA series Worlds Within Thee, a 5-track various artists EP featuring fresh producers from all around the globe. To close out 2020, the second edition continues the tradition with another fantastic collection of dark & melodic beats.

Endangered label curator Brian Cid shares his thoughts on Worlds Within Thee II:

“Our annual label VA has become a very special release to us. It gives us the opportunity to push our sound further with some high musical talent, this time from Zürich, India, Puerto Rico, Montréal and Brooklyn. As always, I made sure each piece fell into our sonic universe and encompasses the vibrational energy intended, in this case, a deep obscure driving music force that moves forward and upwards. It is a pleasure to welcome you and present Worlds Within Thee VA II”.

Hailing from Zürich, Normen Hood opens this chapter with “The Untold Story” – a fitting title to begin with. Tension & anticipation are created with an extended breakdown in the middle, and the tone is set for the EP with a track that seamlessly fits with the melodic techno sound of the label. Dharmalogy & Strange Mind from India follow with “Consonance”, a progressive track with heavy groove, tribal percussion and subtle background melodies. The mid-point of the EP is reached with “Light Figures” by Puerto Rican artist Samot Bidot. The energy rises here with arpeggiated synth work, and lush layers of instrumentation. Manuel Nunez from Montreal is next up with “Unknown Door”, a deep, dark, and driving track that means business. To conclude this story, Brian Cid provides the hypnotic “Sol De Rosas”. Dark, yet extremely melodic, with its flowing synths, trippy production effects & powerful drops.

Worlds Within Thee II is released December 11th, 2020 on Endangered Records.

Brian Cid returns to his Endangered imprint with the Bluiris EP; 4 melodic techno & progressive tracks of his signature dark and hypnotic beats.⠀
⠀
After the last year that’s seen much of the world come to a halt, Brian Cid’s production output continued on strong throughout. He released EP’s on Lost & Found, Balance and Endangered, as well as remixes and singles on labels like Flying Circus, Oddity, Einmusik and Eklektisch. For his first full EP of 2021, Brian is back on Endangered with Bluiris; 4 original tracks that take the listener on a captivating trip when consumed in sequence.⠀
⠀
“ION” starts things off with a cinematic intro, and a sense of anticipation bubbles throughout the track signifying the start of a journey. Curiosity is piqued with the atmospheric pads and subtle synth stabs, and a trippy, sensory overload is reached at the apex. The vibe is switched up with a tribal rhythm and shuffling groove for “Ordeal”. Drum hits come from every angle, and arpeggiated synths jump back and forth which creates a wave of emotions as the listener is now pulled forward without resistance.⠀
⠀
Full energy and power are reached on the title track “Bluiris”. The most progressive and hypnotic track on the EP, this one is classic Brian Cid dark vibes & energy. The journey concludes with the final track “Flares”. Euphoria is reached once the drop occurs, and the listener is left in a relaxed and meditative state at the conclusion of this trip.⠀
⠀
Brian describes the concept behind the music:⠀
⠀
“Imagine the image of us reflected in everything we perceive. This is not only true to the times we live in, but life as a whole. This understanding is the foundation of this EP called Bluiris - a symbol of faith and surrender. Remember that when there is surrender there is no hope, wishes or desires. There is no doubt, fear or uncertainty. There is only the experience of infinite trust. The welcoming of a sea of energy without any resistance.⠀
⠀
I invite you to experience each step of the way with the full essence of your being. Let’s watch our fate unfold as our own fate watches us in pure awe. I say that to hope is for the untrusting mind, but to surrender is for the loyal soul.⠀
⠀
These four tracks cover a wide range of emotions, tempos, colors, intensity, depth, time signatures, chords and ambience. Endangered is its only home because beyond an EP, this is a powerful musical tool that will guide you to enter a state of surrender while life watches you let go.“⠀
⠀
Brian Cid’s Bluiris EP is released on Endangered Records, March 5th, 2021.
