Good Life Is

This track started with a recorded acoustic bass loop for a brazilian Samba.  It then evolved into something else.

Margaritta

A peak hour dance set from the 3 Degrees & Unison collaborative campout over Fourth of July weekend near Yosemite at Spinning Wheel. Magic was in the air, and so was the heat. Enjoy!

This was manifest while looking outside. That's all you need to know.

Trustlike Two

My first fully-arranged and fully intentional track. Took me some time and effort to figure it all out, but it all came together. This the deep+ambient+minimal vibe that makes me lose myself.

To Flight

Some updates to a dreamy beat with my heart and brain splattered all over it.

Spans

This track just came to me this morning. I banged it out quickly - the sounds were all in my head and just needed some arrangement and vibe.

PolyGroovers got started by a young couple in 2001, Konstantin Gredeskoul & Telene Johnston, who got married shortly thereafter. Konstantin was the brains behind compositions, lyrics, and song arrangements, while Telene contributed her beautiful voice on many of the vocal tracks.

As time went on, Konstantin and Telene parted ways. Konstantin remained as the solo creative force behind it, but took a long break after releasing their second album "Tips and Tricks". 

PolyGroovers are known for bringing groovy downtempo, filled with lush harmonies and unexpected polyrhythms, shaken by the funky bass lines and progressively intricate melodies.

PolyGroovers released a total of two albums, "Moods for Taking Out" (2006) and "Trips and Ticks" (2009), that are available on iTunes, Spotify, CDBaby, and many other online outlets. 

Some of the new materal is available for free here on SoundCloud.

PolyGroovers would like to thank those who supported, inspired, taught, and made this project possible. The list of influencers is nowhere near complete, but it includes Pyramind San Francisco, Blue Bear Music SF, FnF (Friends & Family), Ethan Miller (DJ Ethan), Decadent Oasis, Tracy Wadley (DJs as stickybeats), Cloudfactory, Jeff Cross (Apple), Tony Rose (Technostate), Captain Tinrib (Jon Bell, UK), Fil Jach (DJ Kem), Rhythm Society, Space Cowboys, Burning Man.
