{"product_id":"synergy","title":"Synergy","description":"\u003cp\u003eTresor is proud to present the debut split 12\" from \u003cstrong\u003eChloe Lula\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eIreen Amnes\u003c\/strong\u003e. Meeting in the darker, harder-edged side of the Berlin techno scene in 2019, the pair have regularly collaborated and performed together, but \u003cem\u003eSynergy\u003c\/em\u003e marks the first time they've shared a record sleeve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAmnes\u003c\/strong\u003e describes \u003cem\u003eSynergy\u003c\/em\u003e as \"the world we built while thinking about our journey as friends and the connection we share as people and artists,\" and while the record highlights their relationship and shared influences, it also showcases how each has grown into their respective lane.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAmnes\u003c\/strong\u003e' tracks lean into significantly more distorted territory, characterized by a dense fog of grainy pads punctured by sharp, expertly-programmed percussion. On \"\u003cem\u003eOur Bodies\u003c\/em\u003e,\" these fragments are sculpted into driving hardware gear, replete with distant vocals and acidic squelches, where \"\u003cem\u003eFragments of Desire\u003c\/em\u003e\" makes space for a more somber attitude, descending into murky, psychedelic electro.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn counterpoint to \u003cstrong\u003eAmnes\u003c\/strong\u003e' deep atmospherics, \u003cstrong\u003eLula\u003c\/strong\u003e's contributions are driven by intricate sound design and a focus on dancefloor impact. Taking cues from \u003cem\u003eRegis\u003c\/em\u003e and the Birmingham techno sound, she reins in the distortion of 2021's \u003cem\u003eErrant Bodies\u003c\/em\u003e for \u003cem\u003eaufnahme + wiedergabe\u003c\/em\u003e in favor of rolling techno and breakbeat-inspired rhythms that nod to her EBM influences. Making use of the extra space, she builds tension through heaving, textured basslines and crescendos of noise, and on EP closer \"\u003cem\u003eEvent Horizon\u003c\/em\u003e,\" she carves through the beat with her own metallic vocals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eSynergy\u003c\/em\u003e includes a digital bonus track from each artist. \u003cstrong\u003eLula\u003c\/strong\u003e's sees her pushing deeper into finely-tooled techno territory, her drums at a swift, driving gallop, surrounded by ominous swaths of reverb. In contrast, \u003cstrong\u003eAmnes\u003c\/strong\u003e crafts a gritty warehouse trip, sharpening the angles of her drums and detuning her synths until they sound bent and alien. Complete with the EP's physical cuts, these tracks are a testament to how the pair can simultaneously complement and contrast with each other, departing from their shared sonic origins and ending up in wildly different destinations.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tresor","offers":[{"title":"12\"","offer_id":50481837932875,"sku":"2025421","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/Synergy_b92852d9_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727545447","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/fr\/products\/synergy","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
