Adam’s comprehension of thematic focus, structure, genre and the emotional landscape that informs his imaginings sets him apart from the pack. He creates soundscapes from a place of intuition and instinct, drawing on a delicate balance between the intellectual and emotional realms. His aesthetic is textural and layered, complex and fragile, grounded and spiritual. He’s also an utter delight to work with and a true collaborator.
