ass-shaking music

About Me

Sneak-Thief (aka Polygamy Boys) tracks are a rude mix of stomping electro-funk, electronic body music and italo-disco. Since 1997, Sneak-Thief has released fifteen 12" and performed live at hundreds of parties worldwide with his non-stop, all-synthesizer show. No vinyl, no cd’s, and no laptops: this is the real deal!Speaking of gear, Sneak-Thief likes sexy analog modular synthesizers, so much so that he spent the last few years constructing his own . There’s something to be said about the intimacy of building one’s own instruments.Plus this shit is damn addictive! :)

i am not a vocalist

Providing your cadence is half-decent, almost anyone can sound good in a vocoder (which I've used for quite a few Sneak-Thief & Polygamy Boys tracks). But the naked voice is the most personal inst...
