Citric is the brainchild of label boss Noah Becker and former Holosound collaborator Alex Fish. 2009 saw a few very solid releases from label mainstays and the introduction of Deep Cycle's meticulously crafted tech house to the repertoire.
In 2010 and beyond, Citric will be distributed by the esteemed Critical Rhythm team. As well, Citric welcomes the addition of Shane Wheel aka Shane Thomas to the team. Shane has myriad slamming releases out on Tambour/Melodica and Citric is lucky to have partnered with such a bright upcoming US talent. Shane will be conducting all A and R and helping out with operations and of course, lookout for the new collaboration between Shane and Noah in May...it promises to be nothing short of mind blowing.

Holosound is back with another laid-back tech house tune, shuffling beats and airy melodies are kept bouncing by a bass line that's a subtle nod to some of their first productions. Both JdotP and D-Ignition Project turn in more progressive interpretations with D-Ignition taking a more epic tone and JdotP delivering a darker version that's received early support from Nick Warren. Rising minimal/techno star, Christopher Manik, delivers a dark and bouncy treatment that will surely find it's way into many a minimal jock's CD cases.
