Sound Polarities by TSODE presents a collection of 15 tracks, including a 16-minute suite and an exclusive remix by producer Evilsound.
Sound Polarities comes after the success of Corduba: Mitos y Leyendas (2022), a work in which TSODE rewrote the history of his city, Córdoba, and which received multiple international awards, such as the bronze medal at the Global Music Awards and awards at the Clouzine International Music Awards for “best instrumental composition” and “best recording” as well as the nomination at the Intercontinental Music Awards. This album, of great instrumental richness and compositional sensitivity, reaffirmed TSODE as one of the most respected artists in his genre and a key figure in the panorama of the so-called “other music”, with a global audience that has faithfully followed his career.

In Sound Polarities, TSODE takes us through a sound universe that explores contrasts and dualities, a central concept that in this album he represents with the combination of fast and energetic songs with others with ethereal and evocative melodies. From the vibrant eighties rhythm of Sakura to the introspective and full of depth The Silk Movement, TSODE intertwines different styles and atmospheres to achieve a dynamic and emotionally captivating work. The album culminates with Life, an instrumental suite of more than 16 minutes that captures the essence of this duality in a complex and exciting structure that synthesizes the essence of opposites and in which in a single piece we can find different styles such as classical electronics, New Age, progressive rock or experimental music. A personal interpretation of the balance between extremes in TSODE’s musical universe that reaffirms the artist’s unique talent.
In a musical landscape saturated with homogeneous sounds, TSODE remains one of the most original voices in the Spanish electronic scene. With Sound Polarities, the artist from Cordoba not only reaffirms his commitment to authenticity, but also invites the listener on a journey through light and shadow, the modern and the timeless, in a musical experience that defies labels and expectations.
