Pole is an artist who, previous to our meeting, exuded mystery. His iconic, numerically-titled album releases drifted into our world on minimal chords and selectively generated echos. We would hear his music, so simply packaged but incredibly deep, and be entranced. We were thrilled to eventually transform our relationship with Pole from distant admirers to collaborators.

In 2010 dublab helped present a showcase of Pole’s Berlin-based record label ~scape in Los Angeles. This is his performance from the El Rey Theatre.
