Los Angeles Based Space Pop Artist Polartropica Releases the Grease Influenced New Video "In Another Life"
Polartropica is the music endeavor of Los Angeles based, whimsical space-pop artist, Ihui (eeway) Cherise Wu. Born in Taiwan yet raised in California, Wu successfully combines quirky pop melodies, futuristic synths and classical string arrangements, creating a genre of bubblegum psychedelia that you’ve never heard before.
Polartropica derived after Wu heard a song which couldn’t be defined by a genre - ‘Polartropic’ by Mark Foster. Admiring the contrast between both ‘polar’ and ‘tropical’, Wu decided to formulate a place where things can exist where they don’t belong. Polartropica fuses elements of complete opposites together with the outcome resulting in a unique, ethereal sound that defies all sonic worlds. Using both organic and synthetic instruments, Wu conceived a visionary dream world for listeners to escape to. Wu professes, “I wanted to create a healing, inspiring and empowering space with just the right amount of disco-party!"
Integrating 90's pop, classical arrangements and intergalactic space-pop, Polartropica is guaranteed to feed your imagination, with their eccentric and distinguished sound.
Polartropica has just released a new visual entitled “In Another Life”, which depicts how true love has no boundaries, told in the narrative of the movie Grease, but in the modern day and defying gender norms.
"In the LGBTQ world, a popular slogan we use is "Love is Love" and I wanted to take a deeper dive into that. I've always felt that, as humans we are all so interconnected, and sometimes we can even feel or have a bond with someone that we've never met before or come from a completely different religion, culture or upbringing".
