The music is a fusion of styles from all over the world, featuring unique, forward thinking arrangements, stellar improvisation, heavy grooves, and dynamic interplay.Polyrhythmics have quickly gained notoriety playing to packed clubs and festival crowds all over the Northwest. Their self-titled, and now sold-out EP released in 2010, has been charting on radio playlists up and down the west coast.After a year of further developing their distinct sound, the band launched a \"kickstarter\" campaign to fund the recording of their first full-length album. The resulting \"Labrador\" is a 9-song powerhouse full of brooding dance grooves, and catchy layered horn melodies. \"Labrador\" was recorded at Sleng Teng Studios, specifically for it's vintage sound, and the recording process was very similar to their approach on the EP: \"live\" in one room, just like the greats of yester-year.Drawing from modern influences such as the Budos Band and The Whitefield Brothers as well as their original influences, Fela Kuti, and James Brown, \"Labrador\" is a shining example of the chemistry between these 8 talented performers and why, in a seemingly endless sea of new funk bands, Polyrhythmics is the band everyone is talking about.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCar Crash\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNurple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Imposter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMoonroof\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStinky Finger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePoncherello\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLabrador\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBear Claw\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Revenge Of The Sneaky Spider\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStyloposter (Bonus Track)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 844553052204\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyrhythmics\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 11.28.25\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e CD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Polyrhythmics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58254034501713,"sku":"203626","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0620\/5023\/8545\/files\/1865252.jpg?v=1759469019"},{"product_id":"polyrhythmics-filter-system-translucent-clear-clear-vinyl","title":"Filter System - Translucent Clear [Clear Vinyl]","description":"\u003cp\u003ePolyrhythmics Return With Anticipated New Album, FILTER SYSTEMFor the Pacific Northwest powerhouse, Polyrhythmics, the process of democratic songwriting and song rearranging is known as the \"Filter System.\" It's a regimen that led the band to creating it's latest LP. The story of that album begins during the pandemic when the band was pushed into finding new ways to write music. Without the road to test songs, with reality shifting, they wrote the tunes that would become the gripping album.\"When I listen to this music I feel comforted and excited at the same time,\" says saxophonist Art Brown of Filter System. \"I really feel like we've created some beautiful musical spaces that can transport you. And in that way I think it can provide a source of inspiration, and maybe revitalize the minds and hearts of folks who listen.\"The band's new album is a truly cohesive collection. The members, who have worked and written together for a decade, brought their own personal influences to the process to create a seamless jigsaw puzzle of sound. Filter System is the latest release from the Seattle-born band since the group dropped the Fondue Party EP in 2021. And the new nine-track LP is a deep groove. Part-party starter, part-mood setter, it's the kind of record that will likely be sampled by DJs for decades to come.\"If you sat in our van for countless hours like we have and heard who plays what when driving, it would be apparent how diverse our musical interests are,\" says trombonist Elijah Clark. \"Grant might play some Slum Village, Art could take us into the more 'straight ahead' jazz, I'm definitely going to be blasting Havana d'Primera, and Ben is going to force us to listen to some live Grateful Dead. It feels inescapable that all these things will come together.\"The band's newest single, \"Roller,\" is like a daring film score disguised as a debut track. Lead guitarist Ben Bloom zips a Ferrari down a narrow mountain road. Deep pocket bassist Jason Gray laughs as guards take someone away during a poker game. The band's horn section portends adventure in the City of Sin. Drummer Grant Schroff jumps from building to building. It's the sound of a Hollywood fairytale told in three minutes. It's a tuxedo and a red rose. Hand-to-hand combat in the desert before the plane swoops overhead. It's all that in music. For Polyrhythmics, it's all about the songs they write together-yes. But in another way, it's even more about people moving in a room while hearing them. It's why the band works so hard to distill the tracks into their most savory. Whether it's one person in a kitchen or a 5,000 in a packed dance hall, it's about shaking out the ghosts. Says guitarist Ben Bloom, \"We have a love affair with making people move their bodies and the music we've been creating lately absolutely reflects that.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFilter System\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClydesdale\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoller\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMarch of Darkness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWet Leather\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFilter System Reprise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGarden Gnomes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwice Baked\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFly Trap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFunky Miracle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 697560816136\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Synesthesia Music\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7.18.25\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Polyrhythmics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58254102298705,"sku":"258292","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0620\/5023\/8545\/files\/4413531-3336991.jpg?v=1759469845"},{"product_id":"polyrhythmics-man-from-the-future-limited-edition-180-gram","title":"Man From The Future [Limited Edition] [180 Gram]","description":"\u003cp\u003eVinyl LP pressing. 2020 release.

Calling to mind everything from Antibalas and the Dap-Kings to The Meters and Fela Kuti, it's without a doubt their strongest work to date, merging the infectious power of their live show with a sleek and nuanced studio sophistication. Named for the smoldering crater left after a volcanic eruption, Caldera was written during a band retreat to rural Oregon, where Polyrhythmics embraced truly collaborative songwriting for the first time during a marathon session in the shadow of Mt. Hood (itself an active volcano). The resulting album is a blistering declaration from a band that's progressed beyond the sum of it's influences to come fully into it's own. From the downtempo, Afrobeat trance of \"Stargazer\" to the triumphantly anthemic, high-octane pump-up funk of \"Marshmallow Man,\" Caldera is instrumental music at it's best: emotional, evocative, mesmerizing. On \"Cactus Blossoms,\" Polyrhythmics craft an eerie, retro gem straight out of a 70's film score, while the trippy effects and wah-wah guitar of \"Goldie's Road\" suggest a psychedelic journey (or perhaps a bad trip), and the shuffling \"Vodka For My Goat\" draws on Stax soul while hinting at BB King's merger of the blues and jazz. It's an eclectic collection, tied together by the melding of eight distinct musical voices coming together as a cohesive whole.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGoldie\u0026amp;#39;s Road\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpider Wolf\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMarshmallow Man\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCactus Blossom\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAu Jus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJourney To Caldera\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDragon Lotion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompound 49\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBowling Green\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLord Of The Fries\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVodka For My Goat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStargazer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 616892528746\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyrhythmics\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 11.28.25\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e CD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Polyrhythmics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58254706475089,"sku":"25569265","price":35.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0620\/5023\/8545\/files\/3743473.jpg?v=1759477930"},{"product_id":"pre-order-polyrhythmics-filter-system-cd","title":"Filter System [CD]","description":"\u003cp\u003ePolyrhythmics Return With Anticipated New Album, FILTER SYSTEM. Out September 29SEATTLE - For the Pacific Northwest powerhouse, Polyrhythmics, the process of democratic songwriting and song rearranging is known as the \"Filter System.\" It's a regimen that led the band to creating it's latest LP. The story of that album begins during the pandemic when the band was pushed into finding new ways to write music. Without the road to test songs, with reality shifting, they wrote the tunes that would become the gripping album.\"When I listen to this music I feel comforted and excited at the same time,\" says saxophonist Art Brown of Filter System. \"I really feel like we've created some beautiful musical spaces that can transport you. And in that way I think it can provide a source of inspiration, and maybe revitalize the minds and hearts of folks who listen.\"The band's new album is a truly cohesive collection. The members, who have worked and written together for a decade, brought their own personal influences to the process to create a seamless jigsaw puzzle of sound. Filter System is the latest release from the Seattle-born band since the group dropped the Fondue Party EP in 2021. And the new nine-track LP is a deep groove. Part-party starter, part-mood setter, it's the kind of record that will likely be sampled by DJs for decades to come.\"If you sat in our van for countless hours like we have and heard who plays what when driving, it would be apparent how diverse our musical interests are,\" says trombonist Elijah Clark. \"Grant might play some Slum Village, Art could take us into the more 'straight ahead' jazz, I'm definitely going to be blasting Havana d'Primera, and Ben is going to force us to listen to some live Grateful Dead. It feels inescapable that all these things will come together.\"The band's newest single, \"Roller,\" is like a daring film score disguised as a debut track. Lead guitarist Ben Bloom zips a Ferrari down a narrow mountain road. Deep pocket bassist Jason Gray laughs as guards take someone away during a poker game. The band's horn section portends adventure in the City of Sin. Drummer Grant Schroff jumps from building to building. It's the sound of a Hollywood fairytale told in three minutes. It's a tuxedo and a red rose. Hand-to-hand combat in the desert before the plane swoops overhead. It's all that in music. For Polyrhythmics, it's all about the songs they write together-yes. But in another way, it's even more about people moving in a room while hearing them. It's why the band works so hard to distill the tracks into their most savory. Whether it's one person in a kitchen or a 5,000 in a packed dance hall, it's about shaking out the ghosts. Says guitarist Ben Bloom, \"We have a love affair with making people move their bodies and the music we've been creating lately absolutely reflects that.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFilter System\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClydesdale\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoller\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMarch Of Darkness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWet Leather\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFilter System Reprise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGarden Gnomes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwice Baked\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFly Trap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFunky Miracle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 843563170205\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Polyrhythmics\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 11.28.25\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e CD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Polyrhythmics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58254718042193,"sku":"25640888","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0620\/5023\/8545\/files\/4460341-3453852.jpg?v=1759478124"}],"url":"https:\/\/apocalypsevinyl.com\/collections\/artist-polyrhythmics.oembed","provider":"Apocalypse Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
