Colorspacious is Volodymyr Dzitsiuk attempt at creating a somewhat epic, atmospheric, mellow, organic yet synthesized opus. It is also my first full length album. The sound of it may differ from the previous releases, because of tight self-imposed limitations, as well as an array of bizarre but wonderful coincidences during the sound design stage.
By artificially limiting myself to use only synthesizers, effect units and recorded random objects, I tried to make unique, interesting and warm sounds. No sound libraries, real-world instruments, presets etc. This limitation forced me to look for the new ways I could go with sound design. Thus, each and every sound in the album had been created from an simple blip, tick, burst or even silence. An emphasized use of effect units allowed me to achieve somewhat organic-sounding parts. Self-oscillating filters for brass and woodwind-sounding instruments, distortion feedback for bass sounds, FM synths for drums, analogue synths, convolution reverb effects and delay units for pianos.

Polygrim is electronic project on the edges of downtempo, IDM and future hip-hop. This project started in late 2014.
Volodymyr mixes synthesized and live elements, and he try to make inspiring stories packed in fragile melodies, fractured rhythms and saturated atmospheres.
All the parts are combined into worrying and touchy electronic music, walking the edges of downtempo, braindance, ambient and techno. Polygrim project was founded in late 2014 together with his brother and had founded in a small game studio Dustyroom, which became the home not only to our games but also to all the music - game soundtracks and studio albums.
