In autumn 2020, Objetrouvé was invited by Tonn Recordings label to participate in the visual design of the new album by the prolific British musical project 'This is the Bridge'. Partly inspired by the Brutalist architectural movement (as outlined in Paola Camasso's text commissioned by Mary McIntyre and included in the Standard Vinyl edition), this collection of sophisticated synth-pop machineries inspired these 15 unique record cases, evoking the techniques of architectural concrete formwork, with wooden frames, moulding forms of brutal geometries, plastic inclusions and mysterious entropic prints.
Each object is an invitation to enter the delightfully dystopian world of This is The Bridge's “Brutal World”. Enter a control room filled with illuminated control panels, where engineers work feverishly, plans for strange concrete arches displayed on multiple screens. The new factory's production capacity has quickly reached cruising speed: thousands of modernist architectural models roll off the production lines, gleaming gadgets for a public craving for new utopias.
The double release consists in 15 unique Collector Case editions released by Objetrouvé (scroll down for details) and a Standard Vinyl edition of 80 copies released by Tonn Recordings available directly on their page: https://tonnrecordings.bandcamp.com
