Polypores Multizonal Mindscramble DiN81

Release date 15th September 2023
Limited to 300 copies 180g Vinyl / 300 copies Digipak CD

Stephen James Buckley aka Polypores returns for his second full album on the DiN imprint following on from his 2022 debut “Hyperincandescent” (DiN71).

Though we’ve come to know a wide range of sounds from Polypores, it’s here on “Multizonal Mindscramble” that we get plunged into the outer reaches of the inner psyche. Flickering insectoid transmissions are laid atop slowly shifting walls of drifting oscillators, barely discernible chirps and static-encrusted filter sweeps. There are moments of undeniable melodic bliss amongst the warm, weightless transmissions though, with soaring arpeggios and covert counter-melodies emerging from the fog and coalescing into perfect harmony before fading once again into the ether. The slow intricate weaving of sounds and timbres has become a Polypores trademark, and once again the fluidity and ease with which Buckley moves between sound-worlds is evident on this new album. The organic textures morph and grow, from a syncopated glitching oscillator through to slow swells of synth and spacey, cavernous reverb. Like a languid walk through the forest, while you gradually melt through the earth and into the soil. 

A perfectly balanced textural odyssey, and a stunning example of the depth and breadth of the Polypores sound “Multizonal Mindscramble” is released both as a 180g Vinyl edition and a Digipak CD with stunning artwork from Wendy Carroll that matches the music perfectly.

Multizonal Mindscramble by Polypores (DiN81) Demo Mix

Composed in March 2020, sometimes referred to as my "quarantune". Special thanks to Sherrie Tappendon for lead vocal, and Joe Inkpen for invaluable long distance production assistance. Stick performance, background vocals, and main production by Solo. NOTE: Attempting to meditate to this is not advised.

Spectral Echoes

What can I say - I've always had this fixation on robots. This tune was intended as the main title theme for a sitcom pilot idea I had some time back. Sharp ears will catch motifs liberally lifted from other early TV sitcoms. This version includes a short intro titled "Stay Out Of My Dream" 
Composed/produced/performed by Solo.

Jazzmaster test

Rough sketch of an idea for the theme song to my forthcoming short film "Petites Aventures de Cosette" - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4733008/?ref_=nm_flmg_com_4
A good pair of headphones or speakers highly recommended in order to hear the low bass. EDIT: I replaced the file with fixes for a couple of minor things in this version.
