February: 19 techno releases you need to hear this month

B12 'Indeterminate Path' (Firescope)

Something slightly more relaxed from B12, here, on his own label Firescope. The pace is slowed right down, allowing him to create an absorbing arrangement of sounds and space. The emptiness here is just as important, if not more so, than the actual instruments he uses. Serene and sombre, it’s a laid-back workout with techno sensibilities at its heart, and those retro acid bleeps that creep in midway through really give this track its character.

8/10
