Pompelmoessap (swiss)

Pompelmoessap is an energetic elixir, with a fresh, subtle sound, distinguished by a light and captivating groove driven by some cadenced rhythms. Composed by 3 childhood friends, Pompelmoessap link friendship and music to push their work beyond the conventions of electronic music. Early seduced by rock, blues, jazz and classical music, the discovery of electronic music snapped them in an other dimension and they were suddenly mesmerized by Detroit techno & minimal sounds. The trio started collaborating in 2000 by experimenting with soft vibes and lush textures. However, it was through watching Luciano (Cadenza) composing in his own studio, that Pompelmoessap became deeply inspired to create their own sound. Therefore, they decided to commit themselves entirely to learning the art of music composition by training as electronic music producers at “SAE School Geneva” and gaining professionnal experience in recording studios. Supported by Sonja Monnear, Dandy Jack, Agnès, Lee Van Dowski and many more, the team began to set up their own studio in Luciano’s former studio on the hills of Lake Geneva and soon Pompelmoessap was born. Straightaway, Pompelmoessap drew a following in the electronic music scene with live performances and DJ sets. Chaton (Head of the famous Plak Records label) discovered Pompelmoessap through an online live set and invited them to produce a “Plak” LP on his label. The first LP “Winters are getting shorter” (Plak-rec. n015) has been a smashing hit exploding the dancefloors & the charts worldwide. The record is played by many international artists, Richie Hawtin loves it and always takes it with him. Pompelmoessap are touring throughout Europe, setting fires at places like Fuse Club in Brussels, Air Festival in Reconvilier and have a regular presence at Plak parties and at Piping Club – D3 Parties in Geneva where the crowd love to groove to their special & frenzied vibes.
