Archive material and source history
Oktawian is a Polish band that formed in 2015. They became known internationally for their cover of Luis Fonsi's 'Despacito,' which they released as 'Powoli' (meaning 'Slowly'). The track gained significant attention online, reaching millions of streams.
Their version of the song drew some criticism from those who felt it appropriated a Latin American hit, but the band maintained they approached it respectfully to introduce Polish audiences to the music. After 'Powoli,' they put out a debut album called 'Momenty' in 2017, featuring electro-pop and dance styles, and have since released singles like 'Wariatka' and 'Moja muzyka.'
The group includes vocalist Arek Kłusowski, guitarist Michał Pietruś, drummer Jacek Dąbrowski, bassist Mateusz Walach, and keyboardist Tomasz Mańkowski. Their cover has become a familiar presence at Polish events like weddings and parties.
