Lazy Eye by Poly Chain is a textured and immersive track that blends elements of downtempo, IDM, and experimental electronica. Opening with a series of looping, processed sounds, the track gradually builds in complexity, introducing a squelching, bass-driven groove that adds depth and momentum. The bassline emerges with a slow, grumbling quality, grounding the swirling high-end textures.
The sound design in Lazy Eye is a standout feature—synths feel both organic and otherworldly, shifting from atmospheric layers to sharp, percussive elements. The track maintains a steady but evolving structure, creating a sense of movement without feeling rushed. Poly Chain’s ability to balance dense soundscapes with clear rhythmic elements is evident here, making Lazy Eye both engaging and subtly hypnotic.
This track is the ninth piece on Poly Chain’s new album Nemesis, via the new label Lightronics. The album spans 15 tracks, exploring a wide range of electronic styles, from experimental club sounds to post-ambient textures. Each track has a performative aspect, crafted to be experienced both live and in recorded form.
Poly Chain, the artistic project of Sasha Zakrevska, has developed a distinctive voice within the European electronic scene, performing at major venues and festivals, including Dekmantel, Nuits Sonores, and CTM Festival. Known for her detailed sound design and experimental approach, Poly Chain continues to push the boundaries of electronic music, blending ambient textures, rhythmic complexity, and a strong sense of narrative.
