Blank Code’s BCR013 release, featuring Drumcell and Luis Flores, delivers a compelling techno experience that is both captivating and intense. The EP features two original tracks, “Stuck In My Mind” and “Milk Daze,” along with remixes of the title track by Anthony Jimenez and Truncate.

“Stuck In My Mind” sets the tone with its hypnotic rhythms and pulsating basslines. The track’s intricate layers create a deep and immersive sonic landscape that draws listeners in from the start. “Milk Daze” takes the intensity up a notch with its relentless groove and thumping kicks, showcasing the artists’ mastery of tension and release.

The remixes of “Stuck In My Mind” offer fresh perspectives on the original track. Anthony Jimenez’s remix is a stripped-down, high-energy interpretation that focuses on driving percussion and raw, industrial sounds. Truncate’s remix takes a more cerebral approach, deconstructing the original elements and reshaping them into a hypnotic journey through sound.

Overall, BCR013 is a testament to Drumcell and Luis Flores’ talent and creativity. The EP’s blend of atmosphere and energy makes it a standout release in the techno genre.
