Polygum aka Ratman/Violent Beggar/Harry Bismuth makes his debut on Love Love with 'Toy Music from Toy Town'. Hailing from the eerie, utopian city of Milton Keynes, a short ways from London, Polygum first started making braindance music on GarageBand for iPhone SE back in 2019/2020 alongside his studies. Bubbling away in his bedroom studio he hypnotically produces ambient and accelerating child-like beats across a range of styles, sometimes nostalgic and solemn, full of swirling pixie organs, multicoloured melodies and hard hitting trip hop breakbeats. Outside of music Polygum works as a comic artist and freelance graphic designer, most notably designing the infamous hello kitty x aphex twin bootleg shirt produced by Sports Banger.

Polygum makes music that sounds as specific, surreal and uniquely displaced as Milton Keynes life feels - "The whole town feels really artificial like a model or Nuketown which kinda inspired the title. It can get very boring here so playfulness is a real skill used to stay sane, making music from such a place... it ends up getting into the sound". Often producing tracks after long late shifts at warehouses across the city, fuelled by boredom and inspired by the scenes of each day, the album originally started as a means of capturing his manic relationship with the unsettling hyper-capitalist emptiness and isolation experienced since moving back from home after finishing his studies. 'Toy Music from Toy Town' is a selection of the tracks and experiments made over 2019 - 2024 that were most reflective of these experiences, retrieved from the ammo crate he stores his hard drives in.
