The Needle / Poland - Emerging

Pulling sounds from across genres and borders, "The Needle / Poland - Emerging" is a broad snapshot of what’s catching attention in Poland and beyond right now. The playlist mixes local voices with global energy—underground rap from Łysonżi & Kuba Knap and HHHEADZ sits alongside ambient moments from Agnieszka Musiał & Jan Smoczyński and bold electronic edges from acts like Versal and ARTMS. There's jersey club, sped-up remixes, alternative pop, and even a dose of black metal courtesy of Darkthrone.

It’s a deliberately scattered mix, sliding from the emotional ("How is Your day?") to the offbeat ("Gdagdegdagdagdo") to tracks built for late-night speed runs like “Residue” by Kerry King or “repeat!” by Yb Wasg’ood. The inclusion of both established international acts and local Polish producers makes it feel like a radar scan—pointing to where things are buzzing, where boundaries are thinning, and where new voices are starting to rise.
