What Poolside shows
Poolside is built from a photograph of a pool lined with palm trees at night, under a string of bulbs. The only light comes from the water: it colours the pool and throws its reflections onto the surroundings.
The water stirs with the energy, the caustics run along the edges on the beat and the pool’s colour follows the album art. A chic, laid-back world for house, nu-disco, chill and lounge.
