Polaroid 85

London-based Polaroid 85 combine haunting vocals, deep bass, intricate orchestral layers and glitchy samples to create downtempo, cinematic music. Their soulful, piano-led compositions feature elements of trip hop, liquid D&B, broken-beat, world, classical, folk and jazz. Their live show seem to have been kicking off a storm recently, with a buzz surrounding all their appearances.
