  • Surgeon, AKA Anthony Child, will release a 12-inch called Search Deep Inside Yourself on Blueprint in February. Blueprint founder James Ruskin revealed details of the EP this morning, saying the record would kick-start his label's 20th year. Despite their shared history, Child and Blueprint haven't linked up too often: Child's Blueprint 7 collaboration with Ruskin and Richard Polson from 1997 is the only full release so far (he also remixed Ruskin's "Take Control" back in 2005). Search Deep Inside Yourself will be his first 12-inch on the label, comprising four tracks and due out on February 22nd. Both Child and Blueprint have been central to the development of techno in the UK. As a producer, Child helped shaped the genre's sound, thanks to far-reaching work on labels like Downwards and Dynamic Tension. Ruskin's Blueprint has been similarly influential, specialising in a no-frills, hi-fi sound that's become a firm favourite of techno jocks worldwide. Child recently released an album titled From Farthest Known Objects—read Angus Finlayson's review here. Watch Surgeon's RA Sessions performance below.
