GOP044 | Ponkan - Memória Elétrica by Gop Tun

We turn to the past for solace in a culture where the future seems ever-elusive. Nostalgia, a bittersweet yearning for times gone by, becomes a refuge, a melancholic comfort zone. Against this backdrop, Gustavo Baida AKA Ponkan arrives with his debut EP, Memória Elétrica.

Memória Elétrica delves into the sounds that evoke this feeling – synthetic timbres, reverb-drenched beats – but with a twist. Drawing heavily from Italo Disco, Electro, and House, it uses these influences to craft a fresh soundscape. Rather than simply mimicking the past, Ponkan recontextualizes these sounds, imbuing them with a new, vibrant energy for the present. Memória Elétrica is a dancefloor-ready reimagining, a bridge between eras.
