Fans of UK Techno and Electronic music should need little introduction to Steven Rutter.

Widely regarded as one of the originators who helped spawn an entire scene in the early 90s, there's no mistaking his place as one half of the legendary Warp Records act B12. Or that of his other guises such as 2001, Cmetric, Infamix, Musicology and Redcell, which all made up part of the rich tapestry of the hugely influential B12 Recordings.

In 2016, Steven started a whole new chapter by launching Firescope Records. Over the past few years, the label has gone from strength to strength - releasing music from the likes of Morphology, Derek Carr, John Shima, Russ Gabriel, Darren Nye as well as plenty of new material by Steve himself.

'Light From The Dark' EP is a two sided Limited Edition 7" that captures Rutter's innate ability to knit deeply spatial sonic tapestries. Side A track 'In The Darkness' delves into the depths of semi-consciousness and all that we can feel in the half lit hours. Like an impression taken from a half woke sleepy state, he moulds cyclical low end rumbling with fluid rhythmical pulses that in turn give way to brief moments of light and melody. Mirroring the moments we pass in and out of consciousness.

Accompanied by the "The Sands of Time" on Side B, the music takes a gentler path as Rutter leans towards the light, soft rhythms swaying among delicate FM pulsations and patches of airy melody. The warm aesthetics furrow straight from his soul and leave you in doubt that more than two decades on, Rutter continues to be a musical inspiration to generations of Electronic music lovers across the globe
