Polaris is delighted to launch its new series called Friends. The concept is simple: we invite an artist to prepare a series of tracks that they will interpret in collaboration with the artists of their choice. For the first chapter, Darlyn Vlys offers us four dancefloor killers, co-produced with AFFKT, Damon Jee, Panthera and MMYYLO. The story begins with the duo Darlyn Vlys and Sincopat boss AFFKT, who bring us Axo, a audacious, avant-garde track with hard-hitting rhythms and energetic synthesiser hook, offering epic breaks that call on auditors to discover uncharted horizons. With Padreams,French duo Damon & Vlys deliver a track that exudes darkness, its high-energy bass rising in intensity throughout, while the robotic vocals provide an electrifying. Get ready to shake! Then we have Panthera and Vlys teaming up on Dust, an introspective track that reveals a rare complexity with its dreamy harmonies and sparkling arpeggios. A composition that takes the crowd on a thrilling rollercoaster ride of emotional experience. We close the adventure with another French alliance: MMYYLO & Darlyn Vlys present Reflektion, a gloomy track brimming with energies as raw synths intertwine with infected vocals to culminate in an energetic drop thats both catchy and mystic. Prepare to travel!
