B12 - Orbiting Souls

  Quote

Delsin present a new EP by B12 aka Steve Rutter entitled Orbiting Souls, a name which comes from the fact the veteran artist has recently spent contemplating the loss of a friend and believes we are surrounded by lost souls and spirits.

 

This is B12's second EP this year following on from the Bokide 325 release on Soma Records and comes years after still acclaimed album like Electro-Soma and TimeTourist on Warp Records back in the 90s. Orbiting Souls is a somewhat complex journey, a representation of inner Bi Polar opposites; isolation; sadness, but also acknowledging the great and wonderful things around that swirl and support and energise us.

I'm not a big B12 fan by any means, but I need to check out some of his/their older productions because this new one is sounding pretty nifty.

I like, some classic B12 sounds in there. I wonder what's happened to Michael Golding, I didn't realise until now the last EP was just by Steve too?

Yeah so it's just Steve now? Kinda like when Mark Bell took over LFO.

Well this is out now, and will probably be the first B12 release I ever snatch.

So yeah that also means I've no idea what you guys are talking about. Feel free to school me or link to relevant threads, I think I remember seeing some B12 appreciation here before.

Fear not. I was you a few years back, here: http://forum.watmm.com/topic/71159-b12-love/

I love 3EP, short and sweet. Gives you a nice taste.

They always remind me of old black dog, thats why I started listening.

My fav

Electro Soma is classic 90s techno, Time Tourist is much more atmospheric IDM

Completely missed this, listening to a track of this now on Penryn Space Agency and it's ridiculously good / old fashioned. Have to grab this for sure!

this is delish

ordered

nothing will ever top void/comm, and I'm the biggest B12 fan ever ( I own them allll) but this sounds good tho!

This's v nice.
