“citizenGreen’s expansive audio field brings to mind the classic sound of imprints like Toytronic and Neo Ouija, however, Ulterior Motives is more than just a mere recollection or consolidation of the past, but rather a focused a layered musical entity of its own. Spiraling somewhere between dub infestation and delicate electrical tricks, the mood on this EP is upbeat and rather effective for an opener to 2011. Beats, bass and bent melodies trickle through unknown crevasses yet somehow the results can be summed as pure bliss.”

“With its distinct, haunting qualities, Ulterior Motives, the new EP by citizenGreen could be one of the best Atlanta-based produced records of the year. Not the typical southern sound of rap or indie rock, citizenGreen ventures off into a space of minimalist electronica. And even though the album isn’t quite lounge, there is an “after dark” club feeling to the entire record; something to listen to after a night of dancing. Atlanta-based producer Chris Amell, AKA citizenGreen, may not reached stellar sales with this EP, but perhaps that isn’t his goal. If his goal were to make an impressive EP with interesting electronic arrangements and an ecclectic mix of smooth, dark, edgy and euphoric tracks that all somehow transition from one to another smoothly, then mission accomplished.”

“Imagine a sonic journey that is like a delicately crafted quilt of IDM, Glitch, Dub, Industrial, Hip-Hop, and Ambient textures, sure to get your head nodding and your brain pulsating.”
