The fact that he’s using an obscure sequence of digits and that he’s releasing it on a label simply called Detroit Techno could prove to be insurmountable barriers for a lesser producer. Thankfully, Folsom is up for the task, and does so without relying on tired narratives. “Love Of House”, appropriately enough, consists of lithe, shuffling drums, sensuous woodwind and tripped out Rhodes vibes. “Got Me In A Trance” also follows what its name suggests, even though its filtered melodies are underscored by jacking Chicago rhythms. “St David” meanwhile, is a windswept piano-led composition, and ironically, the only track that worships at the Detroit altar, “The Score (Is Techno Dead)”, is an atmospheric soundtrack populated by rugged, raw synth riffs.

The Penthouse and Urban mixes bring together widescreen synths and shuffling break beats. Meanwhile, on the Downriver version, the beats get heavier and are doubled up, with a breathy vocal providing a counterweight to more electronic-sounding synths. However, it’s the Urban Dub mix that’ll get most attention; the beats get dubbier, the synth swings back towards Juan Atkins’s Cybotron sound and a vocal intones ‘access denied’ as a sample from Blake Baxter’s classic “When We Used To Play” is deployed to reinvent the future.
