May: 20 techno releases you need to hear this month
Ellen Allien, Objekt, Laurent Garnier and more
Lucy 'The High Priestess' (Zehnin)
If there’s one thing Lucy has in abundance, it’s control; he’s seemingly able to temper his creativity just enough to tease out the sombre and cerebral techno he’s renowned for. It’s an impressive ability, and ‘The High Priestess’ exemplifies his knack for measured, shadowy techno. The drums feel ceremonial, and the spine-tingling build is so subtle you hardly even realise it’s happening until the kick really starts to drive things forward.
