A Polish experimental trio that borrows the concept of color blindness not as an effect, but as a stance. Imperfect perception, human limitations, and subtle shifts of reality are taken as a natural source of inspiration. Their music moves between contemporary jazz, electronics, dub, and African rhythms, yet it is hard to place within a single genre. The band speaks to those who don’t come to festivals just to collect tracks for a playlist, but want to be drawn into a different pace for a while.
The Daltonists gained momentum with their debut eponymous album released in 2024, which quickly caught the attention of DJs and music figures from European radio stations. They followed it up in November with their second album gradient, whose material now forms the backbone of their live shows. Their music takes shape during long rehearsals focused on finding a shared rhythm and mood. Alongside playing their instruments, jasmine green tea is part of the process – a way to avoid burning out the tempo and to stay focused on what truly works live. How well it works, we’ll find out in July at Colours.
