I’m Ian Hu, a Vancouver-based composer, producer, and sound designer working under the artist name Polyglot. My work lives at the intersection of psychedelic electronica, jazz harmony, and world-music rhythm. I create immersive instrumental pieces built through advanced synthesis, intricate textures, and detailed production. Every sound you hear is composed, recorded, mixed, and mastered by me — I treat the studio as an extension of my instrument. My creative focus is on bridging acoustic and electronic worlds, exploring how modal colour, polyrhythm, and evolving timbres can evoke emotional and cultural resonance. My works include The Peacock Garden of Forking Paths and Floating out of the Circus Tent, both available on Bandcamp. #electronica #synthesis #psychedelic #instrumental #latinjazz #worldmusic
