We are excited to announce that the first complete work of Kapten, aka P. Kapetanakis, is released with the support of To Pikap Records, on cassette and on all digital platforms.
Polarity EP captures trumpet player, composer and orchestrator Kapten, in a point of departure on his new, yet mature, musical journey.
During his studies in Netherlands and his nearly two-decade path as a musical performer, Kapten has been influenced by various artists and sounds, managing to blend diverse elements into a contemporary and organic piece of work.
In Polarity we see a fusion of soul, trip hop, dub and afro sounds, that create a feeling of a film-noir soundtrack, while the spirit of jazz master Miles Davis is floating around the whole creation.
This conceptual, luscious and finely balanced artwork, shows that the future looks promising for this upcoming artist. We need more of Kapten's musical universe and we greatly hope to be a part of it.
Includes unlimited streaming of Polarity
via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.
it peaks in its strength the closer we are
repelling impelling compelling it's so bizarre
immediately after switching from near you to afar
the pulse of my heart rate increases the state of having two that relate
the way we do
antithesis or contradictory u like your cigarettes and I like smoking weed
we both have these tendencies of differing opinions
but you keep my head spinning
i'm hoping that you don't have a hidden agenda
polarity in dealing with aspects between most male and female sexes there exists
a difference and dichotomy more
than bodily it's an oddity
separation from you leaves my energy low
in contradiction to a minute ago
i've entered the glow
antagonism is no longer an obstacle
so do what you want
parts to develop with distinct
i'm on your side
we may argue disagree sometimes
we may not always like each other
but I keep you in my head always
I keep you in my heart always
always,always
