Simon Popp - Apiformes (2026) [Hi-Res]

Apiformes is a collaborative album by Polygonia and Simon Popp that brings together organic and electronic music through recordings of live performances. After meeting in 2022 and working together previously, the Munich-based duo uses improvisation to create a polyrhythmic sound that defies genre boundaries. The project is a captivating exploration of how natural and synthetic elements merge into one.

The music is like a beehive: in constant motion, it’s spontaneous yet grounded in logical mathematical structures. Polygonia brings quirky atonal vocals, while Simon Popp creates an energetic percussive foundation, drawing on his diverse experience as a composer. Tracks like “Superorganism” and “Biotic Circuits” showcase this dynamic, offering a rich, melodic soundscape that brings together a wide range of musical influences.
