about
Polarcoaster is the musical alter ego of multidisciplinary artist Lilly Schwartz known primarily for her documentary and street photography, as well as her YouTube channel that documents all her artistic endeavours, which most notably include photography, music, illustration and building electronic musical instruments. Her photography was shown in solo exhibitions in Germany and Spain, as well as group exhibitions in Germany, Spain, the US and Argentina. The project Polarcoaster provides the soundtrack for all her other artistic explorations and focuses on experimental and (dark) ambient compositions. Her albums Endless Nights (2022) and hypnagogia (2024) offer musical journeys full of sonic textures and melodic sparkles, somewhere between ambient and dark ambient, sometimes lush and beautiful, other times alien and vaguely threatening. With her newest release dreams long forgotten (Nov 28, 2025) she explores melancholic memories of distant times long ago when our futures still looked bright and we could imagine ourselves explorers of oceans, jungles and swamps on alien planets far away. Wistful melodies combine with field recordings into wondrous atmospheres that serve as a portal into a world where our dreams still held promise and strange miracles still seemed to lurk behind every corner.
