Jay Tripwire & Modern Ancient ‘This Is What You Want’ EP

Next to bring a succession of arresting club cuts to Kwench Records is Canadian powerhouse Jay Tripwire alongside Modern Ancient. Breaking ground with partner and up-and-coming producer Modern Ancient in 2018 with their meditative EP project ‘Heart432’ on Mr. C’s Superfreq label, they now land on Cassy’s label with three galvanising tracks.

Those who’re schooled on the innovators and influencers who rose in the ‘90s and retained their relevance, will know Jay Tripwire as being a pioneering force with a colossal catalogue of over 300 vinyl records and a myriad of digital projects on labels including Superfreq, Poker Flat, Bass Culture Records, as well as DJing in hallowed haunts across the globe.

It’s great to welcome another collaborative project onto Kwench Records as we kicked it off with having artists get together. I get a real buzz from hearing what two creative minds can deliver in the studio, and with this EP I feel like they understand not only the label, but me as a DJ and what brings my sets to life.” – Cassy

The EP takes flight with ‘Bats’, a spun-out slow burner which leads us into a reflective, vocal-led respite before resourcing the chug of the bassline. Keeping us submerged in a brooding space with deep drums and scattered sonic shards is ‘Kreature’, while the spirited title track journeys to the light, switching and elevating the mood.
