B12 — Michael Golding and Steve Rutter — one of the key producer duos that shaped UK intelligent techno, releasing early Kirk Degiorgio and Stasis material on their own B12 label as well as putting out records on WARP. This is our first stock since their revival last year, and it's superb. Plaid's comeback got plenty of attention, but this goes further, with a feel that speaks to both the old school and the current scene, and it looks set to build buzz steadily. Essential for anyone who was into Objekt's run of releases. Recommended. (Original Japanese text by Saito)
