February: 19 techno releases you need to hear this month

Austen/Scott 'The C' (Version 2 mix) (Rejected)

Prepare to lose yourself in this cracking hypnotic workout from the duo formerly known as Brodanse. Brothers Austen and Scott Smart turn their hands to techno with this release, and they construct a catchy tune that’s bound to grip dancefloors around the globe. An insistent bassline works its magic in the low-end, while menacing synth stabs get going up top and further layers add depth until the vocal comes in and lulls you into a trance.
