Pomrad

Pomrad, the alter ego of singer and keyboard virtuoso Adriaan Van de Velde, combines 80s fusion funk, raw electrodance, and 90s rave grooves with catchy melodies and dreamy butter & bass-driven pop music. On his new music he really emerges as a pop songwriter and reinvents his characteristic sound by singing all the lead vocals. Besides his typical drippy sweaty funk and scorching hot 80s ballads, he also draws inspiration from some more uptempo 90s rave genres like jungle, garage and juke. We already had a taste of some of his catchyness in his vaporfunk banger “Pomslap”, the new music goes catchy all the way without losing the weirdness, dreamy nostalgia and jazz fusion meanderings that are so unique for his sound. Pomslap, from the EP This Day was featured heavily on the Studio Brussels daytime playlist and returned in mixes from Pomo, Soulection, Jarreau Vandal, Onra and many more. Later on, Pomrad did a collab with Onra and they created a 90s boombap & R&B inspired album Swing Convention under the name of OXP.
