The Bridge is an ALL TECHNO, ALL VINYL event series.
Its purpose is to preserve the art of mixing real records, maintaining a cultural connection between major cities the world over.
The artists for this edition are:
Decka (Frameworks, Unterwegs, Tar Hallow | UK)
Raised in Bristol, Jack Wallis’ earliest musical influences were shaped by dubstep, punk, and UK techno, shown by his early releases on Darwin’s label SPE:C. Following his move to Berlin in 2017, he and The Lady Machine established Unterwegs, an imprint to release music from like-minded talents, including Decka's pressurized, raw, and driving techno productions.
Since then, he has released on top-tier labels such as KEY Vinyl, AMTK+, Token, Tar Hallow and Reclaim Your City. Pushing the boundaries of modern-day techno, the quality of his music is consistently recognized with multiple sold-out releases and a growing portfolio of remix commissions for esteemed artists such as Dubfire. He now runs a second label with artist Roseen - Frameworks - where the duo released their debut album “Imaginary Places” in 2023. In September 2024, Decka released his first solo full-length LP "Exit" on Tar Hallow.
His fervent love for analog in the studio translates behind decks. DJ’ing only with vinyl since the beginning of his career, Decka’s sets not only highlight his clear-cut technique but are filled with moments of suspense and tension amidst high-octane energy, drawing on his extensive knowledge of techno, never limiting himself to just one style.
Mike Larry (Arder | Montreal)
Mike Larry is a key figure in Montreal’s underground techno scene, known for his energetic sets and deep connection to the music. Over the years, he has built a strong reputation both locally and internationally, becoming a regular at Stereo Montréal and performing at major events such as ADE, BPM Mexico, and Selectors Barcelona.
Mike’s marathon sets, often lasting 10–12 hours, are a testament to his talent and understanding of the dance floor. Blending raw, driving beats with hypnotic melodies, he creates an experience that keeps the crowd engaged from start to finish.
In addition to his DJing, Mike is the founder of the Ärder collective, which has been an important part of Montreal’s club culture since 2017. With the launch of Arder Records in 2024, he is creating a platform for new and exciting techno artists while continuing to explore his own creativity.
