Rosebay Music presents its 5th release: a collaborative effort from Submorphics & Zar. These 2 producers linked up in Manchester for an inspired afternoon in the studio before playing at iconic clubnight Hit & Run. 

“Another Level Of Love” is a timeless piece of D&B magic. Classic 90s strings, melancholic piano and a live bassline set the tone for aya dia’s grainy vocals to cut through the mix and straight into your soul. 

“Western Times” is a deeper and subtler moment. A chopped-up Rhodes sample glides over woeful guitars and beautiful pads creating a hypnotic, cinematic atmosphere. 

Visionary music written for your deep winter nights as 2024 comes to a close.

Submorphics (Greg Axelrad) has made his name with soul-drenched, deep, emotive, nostalgic-yet-forward-thinking music. His productions display a fine-tuned signature sound with a distinct tone and melodic sensibility that has earned him admiration from fans, DJs and music lovers alike.

Releases like ‘Long Been Gone’ and ‘Higher Ground’ (Ft. T.R.A.C.) cemented him as one of the top soulful D&B artists in the 2010s, leading him to start releasing longer projects focusing on deeper emotional musical journeys with an emphasis on sonic detail. Tracks on Shogun Audio, Hospital, V Recordings, Metalheadz and Integral saw Submorphics demonstrating a unique take on soulful D&B, connecting the dots between his eclectic influences from Detroit and Chicago with UK Drum & Bass. 

Signing to The North Quarter in 2018, Submorphics released 5 larger projects on the coveted Dutch label to widespread acclaim. Joining the dots between soulful hip hop + D&B in his own trademark voice, the Detroit Haze EP and Kodak Dreams LP put a stamp on his longtime sound and vision with stunning effect - garnering love from both the D&B scene and larger beats scenes. 

Following this, 2021’s Newport Magnetic EP demonstrated a refined sound palette while still retaining his trademark deep melodics. Then in 2022 the Verona Highway EP showcased an even wider screen electronic vision and emotional range, honing in on a moodier Detroit-themed synthetic D&B sound. And in 2023 the script was completely flipped with the psychedelic guitars and hazy organic beauty of the Moonbeam Drive EP.

Later that year his darker Detroit influences returned with the popular Galattico EP on legendary 31 Records. 

And then with little warning Submorphics launched Rosebay Music - an imprint that has proved to be 1 of the standout labels in the soulful D&B realm. With a carefully A&R’ed release schedule, Rosebay tunes have received widespread support from across the board of the D&B scene. 

All this has lead to an active DJ schedule and Submorphics has travelled the globe playing his favourite soulful bangers and the best in modern D&B, engaging with fans young and old with his passionate take on the genre.
