With an impressive catalogue of releases on many of the genre’s most-respected labels, Stein is back on VOLTA with yet another masterful display of diversely captivating techno prowess in the form of “Tunnel Vision” - an all-encompassing three-track EP. Starting with the title cut, “Tunnel Vision” is a pacy, dancefloor-ready, melodic masterclass. Riding a tide of arpeggiating musical elements from the outset, this combination of futuristic techno, electro and breakbeat, which comes packed to the hilt with firm grooves, interplanetary vocals and ripping sonics, will have you energised and moving from start to finish with ease. “Dopemine 23” comes next, cutting a darker, more assertive line. Another stellar exhibition of robust drum sequencing and gripping musical arrangement keeps you locked into this vampiric acid techno stomper as it continuously cranks up the heat. The release ends on “Reson8”, completing the trifecta of potent mainstage techno warheads. A duck and dive of rippling bass and thumping drums, laced with fleeting ominous vocals and hissing percussive drive, combining to carve out a high-octane peak-time bomb.
