Techno Unit 30, as one might guess from the title, is a definite departure from the floating aspects of Kucharz previous work (save Unit 23 going all the way back to 91). Here the tones are modulated and syncopated in various ways to create a sort-of rhythmic approach - again dense, layered, and cyclical - although in many cases the results are more interesting on a cerebral level than the pure emotional value of his floating work. That said, this seems like a very experimental collection of ideas, one that might provide some inspiration and ideas to budding young d&b musicians, although the material here is not presented in any sort of pop context, but instead as a pure exploration of sonic possibilities.
