Kelpe - A Polymar Compendium (2019)

*A Polymar Compendium* includes brand new tracks plus reworked pieces from the Polymar series

Originally conceived as a pseudonym, the Polymar moniker was intended as a new workspace for Kel McKeown aka Kelpe to explore a more minimal and meditative sound, and an opportunity to work with more expansive durations and soundscapes. In 2018, Kelpe released a series of tracks which were designed to follow on from each other, with each track allocated a name corresponding to the alphabet. Here, on ‘A Polymar Compendium’, McKeown has remixed, re-edited and re-worked the tracks into a coherent album format, and also composed three brand new tracks which close out the sequence. This 16 track album has been lovingly packaged into physical formats, both a limited run cassette on translucent blue shell, plus a limited full colour digipak CD edition with onbody print.
