Multi genre MC-DJ hailing from Christchurch NZ❤️🎵

Under the moniker Trig, live techno virtuoso Michael West emerges, captivating audiences across New Zealand with his relentless rhythm-driven compositions and electrifying synth melodies. The distinctive Trig style is a fusion of drum machines and modular synthesis, meticulously crafted in the studio and brought to life on stage through the prowess of Ableton Live.

In a prior artistic incarnation, Michael West operated under the alias Sick Cycle, an accomplished drum and bass project with a legacy spanning over two decades. Trig, however, serves as the evolution of these acquired principles, expertly translated into the realm of live techno.

The year 2022 marked Trig's debut onto the scene, characterized by inaugural releases and performances. The inaugural event was the modular synthesis celebration "Modfest," accompanied by its corresponding album "Modfest22." In swift succession, as 2023 unfolded, the esteemed Christchurch collective Kind of Green extended invitations for Trig to grace several events and contribute to the label's discography. The release "Trig - Entity/Player 67," labeled as KOG003, garnered widespread acclaim within the music community. Notably, the track "Entity" secured a prominent position within the top 10 rotation on RDU radio station for multiple weeks.

Trig plays a pivotal role in promoting the utilization of modular synthesis and drum machines within the realm of music. Furthermore, Trig imparts expertise as an educator in these domains of music production, maintaining ongoing collaborations with Ableton and MAINZ, all while dedicating daily efforts to this role.

Trig's path forward involves delving into even more intricate rhythms and pushing the boundaries of the mind with mesmerizing synthesizer harmonies.
