Echoes Of The Live Wire – Tresor 385

Irish producer Kerrie, now based in Manchester, follows up her first Tresor outing with a second EP that pushes deeper into her live hardware approach. She treats techno not just as a club tool but as a language for memory, reflection and release.

The opening ‘System Awakens’ establishes her machine funk with taut kicks and rolling synth sequences, before ‘Live Wire (Zirp Zirp)’ twists the idea of circuitry into skittering hi-hats and nervous energy. The title track, ‘Echoes Of’, nods to Detroit traditions in its melancholic chord wash, while ‘Together In A Rural Place’ softens the mood with a more pastoral shimmer. ‘Moment To Memory’ strips the rhythm away entirely for a swelling, beatless crescendo. Two digital bonuses extend the metaphor further: ‘Recircuit’ is a streamlined, hypnotic workout, while ‘Reclaim’ pairs catharsis with vulnerability. It’s a record that balances toughness and tenderness, showing Kerrie’s gift for turning personal reflection into dancefloor-ready abstraction.
