"Deepblue... one of the finest, most consistent, ah hell downright cool independents in the country!

Showing a quality threshold that would turn most labels green with envy, they've released a clutch of unforgettable club monsters."

"The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free and good men die like dogs for no good reason..."

- Hunter S Thompson


Run by Dale Russell together with former Solarstone producer Andy Bury, the ethos behind Deepblue is to feed a steady stream of high quality modern dance music records with an enduring shelf-life,into a fickle and often disposable music scene.

Originally cast as a springboard for their own material and a way to bypass the mercenary tactics of major labels, Deepblue has expanded it's horizons over the last few years to support a selection of the some of the most inspiring international up and coming artists, including FKN, Filo and Peri, Bobina, Adam Nickey and Vadim Zhukov to name but a few.

With an often sporadic but consistantly forward thinking release schedule, Deepblue is run with a passion, and is unafraid to take risks on unknown acts, regardless of the 'commercial' prospects of those tracks.

From hypnotic, forward-thinking electronic music through to lush, highly polished progressive and uplifting Trance, Deepblue believes in quality over quantity, everytime
