As two synthesizer-freaks, sound design became their typical approach in starting new concepts. Polypumpkins’ works diffuse rich electronic flavor with heavily synthesized sounds. Their music targets to bring audiences on a special journey with ups and downs, without a fixed boundary of genres.

Sharing the moods musically is always the goal of their production and performance. Besides original composition, music cover is something Polypumpkins enjoy making as well.

Dominic Au (a.k.a. Bluedee) started producing music and playing as a DJ back in 2009. Over the years, he had played in bands as keyboardist and programmer. On the production side, he had composed for award-winning project film scores and advertisements, which heavily influenced the atmospheric vibe in Polypumpkins' works.

After accomplishing his major in Creative Arts, he became a Producer in a documentary production house. He entered the realm of Music Technology and Pro Audio when he became a Product Specialist for Focusrite / Novation in 2013. He is now a Senior Product & Design Manager of ASM (Ashun Sound Machines), who has proudly co-designed the Hydrasynth series. He had hosted numerous music tech events in Hong Kong, Mainland China & Taiwan, and exhibited in the world's largest music shows, including NAMM and Music China, for years. He is known for his prominent demonstrations on the ASM YouTube channel.

Over the years, he has gained experience in instrument development, testing, sound designing, demonstration and performance. He is passionate and ready to work on all kinds of projects.

Specialized translation (English / Cantonese / Mandarin) in the music and audio field is one of his strengths. He had translated a great amount of brand marketing contents as well as professional UI strings. Besides, he had also worked as simultaneous interpreter for advanced talks in Pro Audio.

Education is one of his focuses now. As an Ableton Certified Trainer, he felt blessed to be able to share the knowledge of Music Technology and inspire aspiring talents.

She started to learn piano when she was 9, and eventually led to the recognition in classical piano training and her achievement in Music Education.

Pion was influenced by local electronic music bands like Tat Ming Pair when she was a teenager. In 2013, she joined the band Electricious, from which her adventure in electronic sound exploration began. She played a key role in the electronic sound-shaping of their works.
