Polynation, a Dutch music duo renowned for their eclectic blend of electronica, ambient and world music has captivated audiences worldwide, whether on festival stages, club dancefloors, or in the comfort of listeners’ homes. Their signature organic and cinematic sound stems from live improvisation, laying the foundation for both meticulously crafted studio tracks as well as mesmerising live performances.

Bonding over melancholic chord progressions, driving rhythms and electro-acoustical textures,  the duo’s adventurous soundtracks are raw, sensory experiences crafted with finesse. Whether on record or playing live, their music is widescreen and immersive, rich in meaningful melody that draws from ambient, pop, minimalism and techno. 

Collaborating with Dutch label Atomnation since 2015, Stijn Hosman and Hessel Stuut have released three EPs and their acclaimed debut album, ‘Igneous’. They have also remixed Joep Beving on Deutsche Grammophon, and won over tastemakers like Gilles Peterson with their artful sounds and intricate studio wizardry.

Continually evolving, Polynation have honed in on a beautifully enriched sound, accumulating over 20 million streams on Spotify alone. Their dynamic live performances have graced festivals such as Best Kept Secret, Wildeburg, Secret Garden Festival, ADE, DGTL and clubs across Europe, delivering both soothing escapes as well as wild and energetic 2 am rhythms with equal style and sophistication.
 
They use a wide array of tools including drums, analogue synths, piano, kalimba, bass and electric guitar as well as pedals, tape (delays) and sax. Those acoustic sources, blended with electronic signals, lend their material a unique quality that's inspired by the infinite beauty of nature. Though meticulously crafted, Polynation's music is alive and imperfect, rooted in real-world emotions but warm with machine soul.
 
In 2024, the Amsterdam-based duo returns with a fresh wave of music. Anchored by live acoustic drums and analogue synths there is no limit to where Polynation's sonic alchemy might take you.


Bookings: pete[at]wearee.nl

Singer-songwriter and electronic music producer. To many that might sound like two very different aspects of modern sound culture - which in turn makes Monolink a fascinating character, because he's both rolled into one. His style seamlessly connects the narrative structure of a song with the compelling forward thrust of electronic rhythms. Guitar chords merge into synthetic pad sounds, hypnotic bass vibrations meet emotional vocal parts, passionate physicality meets sublime stimulation for the mind.

Biography :

It came as quite a shock when The Avener’s Fade Out Lines rocketed to number 1 in the German iTunes charts. It had been a long time indeed since a French artist had achieved that kind of success in Germany, especially with such a startling single. The triumph of Fade Out Lines opened a door onto a unique and yet instantly familiar world. Its irresistible, sophisticated rhythms conjured up a dual image of lovers ending up on the quays of the Seine at daybreak, and of an urban club funk beat.
Since then, the single’s phenomenal success has proved contagious, confirming The Avener’s prime intention: to travel the frontiers between genres, periods and styles; between the music we listen to and the music we dance to; between underground and high-end pop. As The Avener says himself: “Fade Out Lines is hard to define. It’s blues with jazz, folk and funk influences, and electronic instruments. It has feelings, emotion and nostalgia, but a lot of energy, too.”
It perfectly reflects his upcoming album, The Wanderings Of The Avener, a sophisticated electro manifesto in the spirit of St Germain and his Boulevard’s nu-jazz sampling, reconciling the styles of Moby and Wankelmut, King Britt and Cassius...
The ghost producer of many club hits, Tristan became The Avener when he decided to re-embrace the pleasure of music for its own sake, his early love of piano and melodies, his rich, eclectic, multilayered musical culture and deep house – an antidote to the mechanical chill that has crept into electro over the last few years.
Tristan shut himself away in the studio for months. “I began to rework old tracks that went unnoticed at the time, giving them a more modern feel...” He was determined to achieve a perfect balance: a mixture of acoustic and electro combining songwriting science with the intuition of a dance-floor specialist. And while The Avener wrote his own music, The Avener also covered Sixto Rodriguez, John Lee Hooker, Mazzy Star, The Be Good Tanyas, Andy Bey and Adam Cohen in a mosaic of seminal blues, underground folk, nocturnal pop, ironic rock and the work of forgotten artists from the 70s and 80s, exploring secret paths of memory. His sampling of Phoebe Killdeer & the Short Straws’ The Fade Out Line, a foretaste of the album, was quietly uploaded in summer 2013. It steadily gathered momentum by word of mouth in France before going massive in Germany and then all around the world.
The Avener’s delicate, radiant style has been welcomed as a So French Touch of Elegance and acclaimed as the missing link between harmonic emotion and the urge to dance worldwide. Confirmation of this triumph looks certain with the release of his first album, The Wanderings of the Avener, out on January 19, 2015.
