POLET, a brand new project from Bilbao (Euskadi, Spain), to be exact from the urban and industrial heart of the Estuary of Bilbao... impressive place, family home to Sanchesqui, the brain behind this new musical adventure. This first contact with the worldwide scene is through a first EP (La vie d une autre / PLEX!) and an amazing video of the song *Soma* animated 2D and 3D by Marina Couso Atalaya. Renowned visual artist and illustrator living in Tokyo.
Electronic sounds droppped with a classic "french touch": Super Discount, Alex Gopher... Fine house music. Haunting vintage synths, a gently thudding beats, resonating retro-disco basslines and unmistakable soul.
The artist tells us "POLET is a term that comes from my immigrant background and my connection to France, Germany and Cuba (by grandfather). It also refers to the sea and ocean indispensable in my life, is the air I breathe every day". A Basque moved by impulses who needed to return to the dance scene map (after composing music for various film and tv, also his project as Dr. Skyloop).[info from mm]
