TULUM, 27 Feb
Pole Position 'Sunlight' on Sapiens Recordings
Sapiens Recordings introduced 'Sunlight' as, "Sapiens Recordings welcomes Pole Position with Sunlight, a refined melodic techno and house crossover." The track is filed as Melodic House & Techno and was released on 13 February, deep into the Tulum season's second month. Agoria placed it 11th of 11 on his 'Agoria Cambodia' chart on 25 February, a list where three of the 11 records carry the Sapiens Recordings name.
Sapiens Recordings was last covered on 21 November, with Jean Claude Ades's 'This Feeling'.
The record's weight sits in the drums, though not much happens across them, held at a restrained level that keeps its headroom, with plenty of light reaching the top end. It is a refined, forward leaning piece of Melodic House & Techno, patient rather than pushed, sitting last on a chart where three of its 11 records already carry the Sapiens Recordings name.

Sapiens Recordings, Bandcamp about text · sourceSapiens Recordings welcomes Pole Position with Sunlight, a refined melodic techno and house crossover that captures the duo’s forward-thinking approach to dancefloor music.
Based in Barcelona, Pole Position is formed by Loïc Le Joliff, founder of Brunch Electronik and DJ/producer Lee Jo Life, and Jaime Alguersuari, former Red Bull Formula 1 driver and now acclaimed DJ/producer under the alias Squire. United by a shared passion for experimentation, the duo draw from a wide spectrum of influences, weaving together elements of jazz, soul, hip hop, funk, and futuristic electronic textures into a sound that is both emotionally rich and club-focused.
Sunlight reflects this balance with precision. Anchored by a driving low-end groove and crisp, rolling percussion, the track unfolds gradually, building tension through evolving melodic layers rather than immediate impact. Subtle harmonic shifts and controlled dynamics create a sense of lift and momentum, making Sunlight a natural fit for extended peak-time moments, hypnotic, immersive, and designed to resonate on large dancefloors.
The track has already received early support from top tastemakers, highlighting its crossover appeal within the melodic techno and house spectrum and reinforcing its status as a standout club record.
Beyond their releases on leading labels, Pole Position channel their creative vision through Anims, a record label and social brand that has quickly gained international recognition. Anims releases have been championed by influential artists including Âme, Dixon, Adriatique, Solomun, John Digweed, and Carl Cox, positioning the duo at the forefront of contemporary underground electronic music.
On stage, Pole Position have built a strong global presence, delivering standout performances at Brunch Electronik, Mad Cool Festival (Madrid), Bloomfest (Porto), alongside tours across Latin America. With a growing catalogue of EPs, remixes, and forthcoming releases, the duo continue to expand a distinctive artistic identity, one that merges music, culture, and storytelling into a cohesive sonic journey.
