EMG and Battista unite on The Trilogy Tapes with The Bridge — four tracks of raw analogue techno that stood among the finest the genre had to offer in 2015. The Trilogy Tapes has always had an unerring ear for this kind of material, and this collaboration between two producers with closely aligned sensibilities delivers exactly the kind of uncompromising, physically immediate music the label has built its reputation on.
Insatiable Desire and Spaceman open the A-side with the raw, analogue weight that defines the record throughout — broken, experimental and driven by the kind of textured, machine-tooled energy that only comes from producers working with hardware rather than against it. Thrill Seeker and Electric Cave carry the flip with equal conviction, the latter closing the record in the cavernous, exploratory fashion its title suggests. A record that sounded vital on release and has only aged with distinction.
