Hailing from Oakland, California, US, The Polish Ambassador, A.K.A David Sugalski, is an American electro-pop producer, who has been making energetic electro anthems since 2005.
Sugalski began playing with music production software whilst studying for a marketing degree at the University of Colorado, Boulder, US, where he found a love for creating his own music digitally. In 2005, he released his debut album, “Diplomatic Immunity,” which showcased a number of 8 and 16-bit electro funk dance floor fillers, gaining a significant amount of support from fans. A video game developer who worked for Microsoft liked the sounds Sugalski was coming up with, hiring him to create a soundtrack for the game.
Sugalski then decided to pursue making music full time, also performing as Ample Mammal, a side project of The Polish Ambassador. As the Polish Ambassador, Sugalski creates upbeat dance music, relying on multi-layered melodies and funky bass. As Ample Mammal, Sugalski aims to create heavily processed drum tracks, taking influence from techno and glitch-filled IDM by the likes of Apex Twin.
Sugalski regularly performs under these two pseudonyms across the US, often performing alongside other electronic musicians. He is known for always wearing a brightly coloured jumpsuit, which he bought from a thrift store for under four dollars. His music travels across many genres, from electro, breakbeat to hip-hop, dub and funk. Performing live, Sugalski develops his tracks differently each time, through using live sound mixing and midi instruments.
Sugalski released “Pushing Through The Pavement,” a full-length record in June 2014. Through his music, he has developed a strong fan following, who are known as the TPA Family, Ambassadorks or simply, ‘The Family.’ He releases his music upon the Jumpsuit Records imprint.
