Originating from the stems of four concerts, additional elements were built on from a foundation of live recordings — an intuitive endeavor by the musicians with such integrated effects to give one the impression of a sole sonic organism, and mystifying which sound is coming from which performer. Rapid creative decisions create an intriguing sense of aliveness, producing a uniquely vibrant buzz of jazz and electronic influences.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe duo set an otherworldly tone in their latest release, with leanings towards acoustic and percussion-heavy instrumentation, combined with playful synthetic musings which create a sense of opening up: an intriguing and earnest exploration of the ethereal, and what is available in nature as a window to the divine. Named for the scientific name for bees, the project’s mix of warm, dynamic improvisation and sequenced synth instrumentalisation mimic the similarly complex mathematical structures of a bee colony: a visual and sonic world made up of geometric shapes, mating dances and navigation patterns, sensations perhaps most energetically available through a sense of wonder rather than logical extrication.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Squama Recordings","offers":[{"title":"Vinyl LP","offer_id":59520914424153,"sku":"SDZ-52849","price":34.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0588\/3455\/0945\/files\/SRD_20260911_1759_172219_732_p_SQM042_031.jpg?v=1789986898","url":"https:\/\/spindizzyrecords.com\/products\/polygonia-simon-popp-apiformes","provider":"Spindizzy Dublin","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
