Polaris is delighted to launch its new series called ‘Friends.’ The concept is simple: the label invites 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 ‘Axo’, an audacious, avant-garde track with hard-hitting rhythms and energetic synthesiser hooks, 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 electrify.

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.

The adventure ends with another French alliance: MMYYLO & Darlyn Vlys presenting ‘Reflektion,’ a gloomy track brimming with energies as raw synths intertwine with infectious vocals to culminate in an energetic drop that’s both catchy and mystic.

You can now listen to the full premiere of Damon Jee & Darlyn Vlys’ ‘Padreams’ exclusively on When We Dip. Enjoy!
