Populous

Populous, the moniker of Italian electronic music producer Andrea Mangia, is a sound alchemist known for his blending of global rhythms and contemporary electronic beats. Emerging from the coastal city of Lecce, Populous began his musical journey with a broad palette of influences, ranging from trip-hop to world music, ultimately forging a distinctive style that defies easy categorization.

Throughout his career, Populous has demonstrated a restless creativity, consistently evolving his sound across a series of innovative releases. Notable among his recent works are the 'Moonbaton' series, with Volumes 1 and 2 delving into a hypnotic mix of electronic and moombahton-flavored beats, and 'BĘÃTFÓØT Remixes', where he reimagines his own music through a fresh lens. With other releases like 'Stasi' and 'Pietre Roventi', Populous demonstrates his knack for crafting atmospheric soundscapes that draw the listener into a unique sonic world. His collaborative project 'Pedro & Nina', alongside singer Nina Miranda, showcases his versatility and openness to exploring new territories with other artists. Whether reinventing his pieces, as in 'Caracol (Populous Remix)', or embarking on thematic endeavors like 'HOUSE OF KETA', Populous continues to be a shape-shifting force in electronic and global fusion music.
