Time doesn’t tick the same way in Invergordon.
Nestled deep within the northern whispers of the Scottish Highlands, a new name resonates from the underground: Anthony Cairns, techno architect and sonic storyteller. No flamboyant stage name. No digital mask. Just the raw authenticity of a UK-born sound sculptor crafting reflections into rhythm.
🌀 « Pieces of Time » – Techno for the Inner Mind
Not every beat is made for the dancefloor. Some are made for memory.
With his latest release, « Pieces of Time », Cairns goes inward, building a reflective techno track that doesn’t demand motion—it invites pause. This isn’t the hands-in-the-air techno of peak-time clubs. It’s the pulse that plays when thought lingers, when your mind replays the fragments of yesterday under a neon sky.
« The track you could say is about thought, reflecting and thinking about something from the past… »
Released under his independent artistic journey, the track continues a vision first ignited with his debut album « Neon Glow » in 2023—a project that not only defined his entrance into the scene but shattered expectations, racking up 55,000 streams in just over a week.
🚀 The Techno Journey Begins
Born of passion and honed in the silence of late-night sessions, Cairns’ journey is rooted in a commitment to originality. There’s a tactile sense of care in his productions—a refusal to recycle, a need to feel something different.
He doesn’t lean on heavy collaborations. Not yet. Instead, each track is a solitary step deeper into his evolving sound universe.
“Always trying to be innovative… bringing into play an individual and imaginative vibe… something more than just new.”
There’s no grand marketing campaign. No social media presence. Just the music. And the message.
🛸 The Sound of the North – Techno Made to Wander
Cairns’ sound doesn’t explode—it unfolds. There’s space in it. Air. Imagination.
You hear the Highlands in his synths. The solitude. The endless sky. There’s a certain introspective chill, a techno with thoughts. It’s not techno made to escape the world—it’s made to understand it.
