Steve Bicknell‘s latest release, Mind Patterns, is out now on his own 6dimensions imprint.

The EP, which features three devastating techno cuts, is based on Bicknell’s thoughts on human mind patterns and “a human cycle of suppression, how things can rarely change when in this repetitive cycle, and how difficult it can be to abruptly awaken from this mindset,” Steve explains. “The cycle can usually be broken by subtly shifting patterns over time.” Due to this, the tracks on the EP are heady, swirling concoctions that bend the mind as much as they move the body. From the propulsive grooves of “Preset Minds” to the rippling, disorientating synths of “Vein Injection,” Bicknell’s latest offering is techno of the highest order.

In support of the release, you can stream “Vein Injection” in full via the player below, with the EP available here.
