Slowride by Tryphème
“A western-PMU OST or a woman-composed contemporary version of The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner.
With Slowride, the debut album of her new eponymous label, Tryphème releases a new odd horse-ballad. While we cross the artist’s old moons - My Bloody Valentine, Techno Animal, Abstrackt Keal Agram, or Bowery Electric in front -, hints of bass rock, dub and electronica appear on a trip-hop backdrop.
After Odd Balade, Tryphème’s voice takes a direct leap forward and gets deeper. It does not stand for a remote, diaphanous and romanticised person as the trip-hop canon would have it, but to express the artist’s angst and difficulties with a soft firmness.
The challenges that come with the music industry, insecurity, and the weight of social norms are tackled through metaphoric and complex horse-themed songwriting.
Emerging through a precise production; sometimes longing, sometimes bold, moods vary as the bass-played guitar riffs rise up from steady and comforting paces.”
