Release Year: 2026

Description: Pool Party
The invitation said Pool Party.

What followed was something much stranger.

Pool Party unfolds like a long summer evening remembered years later: fragments of conversations, half-forgotten romances, questionable decisions,
laughter drifting across the water, and music coming from somewhere just out of sight.

Some tracks arrive dressed in the warm colors of the late seventies — electric pianos, mellow grooves, and sun-faded optimism.
Others lean toward the polished surfaces of the eighties, all bright lights, glossy production, and neon reflections dancing on the pool's surface.

The album exists somewhere between those worlds.

Perhaps it is the bridge between them:
the last carefree sunset of one decade and the first glittering night of the next.

Across fifteen tracks, eight musicians contribute ideas, melodies, arrangements, and accidents.
Some pieces are carefully constructed songs. Others are little more than moments captured before they disappeared.

The interludes play an important role in this story.

Rather than polished compositions, they are snapshots — sketches left deliberately unfinished. Fragments of grooves, melodies, and moods that tie the larger narrative together.
They drift in and out like memories, connecting one scene to the next:
a drink shared by the pool, a passing conversation, a motorcycle disappearing into the night, the last guests refusing to go home.

There is no strict plot.

Yet a story emerges.

People arrive.
Music starts.
Drinks are poured.
Old feelings resurface.
New mistakes are made.
Someone falls in love.
Someone leaves.
The night grows later.

By the end, the laughter has faded, the chairs stand empty, and only distant echoes remain.

Pool Party is a celebration of collaboration, nostalgia, and the beautiful chaos that happens when too many ideas are allowed into the same room.

Fifteen tracks.

Eight people.

One very long night.
