Bridge & Tunnel Kids - Omnii EP

  • Share
  • Although Will Burnett and Jorge Velez have worked together before, Omnii, their debut EP as Bridge & Tunnel Kids, comes at a time when both are enjoying a resurgence. These tracks lean toward rough electro and come with few frills, but throughout there's an endearingly Kraftwerkian melodic sensibility. This is most evident on the warbly, dissonant "Persistence" and the simultaneously drowsy and booming title track, which is cut through by streaky synth strings. Burnett remixes the latter track as Willie Burns. Its sparse, low-slung chug has blasts of radio interference, and the result is as ominous as it is hypnotic. The plucky "Splinters" is underlined by snakelike rave chords and closes out the collaboration in odd, unearthly style. Omnii is a strong, inventive showing by two producers who deserve their recent attention.
