Blue is the second extended play (EP) by Australian alternative dance group Rüfüs. The EP was released independently on 6 April 2012.
Band member Tyrone Lindqvist said: "We sought to channel a kind of dark euphoria; moving from sun drenched Sunday afternoons, to sunsets and half forgotten nights." Band member Jon George said: "You'll hear a lot of experimentation with recording and mixing techniques; some more hi-tech than others... We recorded in the studio kitchen for echoed vocals and drums, used a 5 cent coin as a guitar pick for a more metallic sound, squeezed the hi-hats for the tightest sounding hats possible, its been super hands on."
The EP was supported by "This Summer Tour" across April and May 2012 and "Blue Tour" across August 2012.
The lead single "This Summer" received high rotation on Triple J. "Talk to Me" features on the Kitsuné Summer mix compilation.
