Agar Agar is a French electronic duo that has carved out a distinctive space in the indie and electro-pop music scenes. Comprised of singer Clara Cappagli and synth wizard Armand Bultheel, the pair emerged with their enigmatic yet danceable sound in the mid-2010s. They first gained significant attention with the release of their 2016 single "Prettiest Virgin," which encapsulated their flair for combining hypnotic, lo-fi disco-infused beats with moody, introspective vocals.

The duo's explorations in synth-heavy landscapes and hauntingly melodic undertones continued to resonate with audiences, leading to the release of their debut EP "Cardan" and subsequent attention from music lovers searching for fresh and inventive sounds. Agar Agar has solidified their musical identity with their characteristic blend of nostalgic synthesizers and contemporary electronic rhythms, often complemented by quirky and cerebral visual aesthetics in their music videos. Their project "Player Non Player" and collaborations such as "Dude on horse" with ZOMBIE-CHANG demonstrate their ongoing evolution and willingness to experiment with their sound. The eclectic assortment of remixes, including their own reimaginings of other artists' work, showcases their versatility and commitment to pushing the boundaries of electronic music. With each new release, Agar Agar continues to challenge the conventions of the genre, building a unique and intriguing sonic world that captivates their growing fan base.
