Simon Popp and Polygonia have released their collaborative album Apiformes on Squama Records. The tracks are based on pure improvisation.
Munich-based drummer Simon Popp and electronic artist Lindsey Wang, also known as Polygonia, have presented a new collaborative album titled Apiformes. The record was released on November 6 via Squama Records.
Second Collaboration Following Candid
For the two musicians, this release represents their second joint project following their debut Candid. Musically, the work is situated between the jazz club and the dancefloor.
Improvisation and Polyrhythmic Layers
The musical material for the tracks emerged entirely from pure improvisation. The arrangements combine live acoustic drums with electronic elements. These electronic sounds were either performed live on the spot or sourced from live recordings. Through this method, a dense weave of polyrhythms and layered sounds gradually takes shape.
