Poly Chain – Dogtooth

Synth enchantress Poly Chain returns to Dom Trojga for a smashing full EP release! Hailing from Kiev, she first made a name for herself during the years she spent in Warsaw, releasing her debut LP and becoming a fixture on Poland’s underground scene. After returning to Ukraine, she spread her wings further, with exciting releases and regular international appearances only briefly thwarted by the pan-demic. Her long-anticipated EP for Dom Trojga is a treat in her signature style – filled to the brim with incessant, psychedelic arpeggios racing over raw and direct beats. The opener “Kie?” is an unfor-giving electro tune with a huge snare (we like) and tight, unsettling synthwork. “Visa” offers some much-needed hypnotic comfort, and on the flipside, “Acid Regular” hits the floor again with a serious groove, while “Visa Reprise” closes off in a deep, echo-laden fashion. The cover is a drawing by the inimitable Bartosz Zaskórski – an illustrator, sculptor and sound artist, whose uncanny, twisted bio-mechanical visions have been haunting us for years.
