Bjarki 'Genat 8' (Trip)
One of the cornerstone artists on Nina Kraviz’s Trip label, Bjarki is a favourite of ours. He always manages to pull it out of the bag, whether he’s in straight-up techno beast mode or producing something that errs on the side of weirdness. ‘Genat 8’ is definitely on the odder side of his spectrum, with decayed beats and strange female vocal clips at its core.
