ASC is perhaps best known as a contemporary UK drum & bass producer with a talent for atmosphere, but in the past few years his music has been completing a drift toward techno and other experiments. 2010's style-traversing Nothing Is Certain on Nonplus grabbed the attention of music listeners across genres for its strong sonic vision, and a unique release last year on Mote Evolver placed ASC squarely in the sights of the techno tunnel visioners.
