Criterion Records, Greece's premier drum & bass label steps up it's vinyl only release schedule with not one, but two brand new slabs of black wax.

Hot on the heels of Ricky Force's excellent 'Bad Rep / Got Me' 12", Blade brings us two hard-hitting, jazz tinged numbers with the rolling amen and deep piano infused 'Secret Moments' and the stepping 'Blue Notes About You'. Blade's release is accompanied by LMJ & Scenic's 'Quiet Truth', with it's techno pads and 2-step breaks. Griever's cinematic 'Final Dream' adds intricate chopped up amen breaks to sweeping synth chords.

Both releases invoke memories of classic deep and atmospheric drum & bass as featured on labels such as Good Looking/Looking Good, Moving Shadow and Creative Wax. For those who are quick in ordering both releases, Criterion Records are offering a joint double vinyl purchase which comes with a free Criterion Records tote bag, so get in there before they're gone.
