Adem has always had a way with the intricate, so it seems like a natural fit for him
to meld two songs from Aphex Twin's Richard D. James album. He finds the organic roots
of the melodies and turns them into almost joyous celebrations. With the jaw-clenched
tension of Aphex removed, we're left with something simply beautiful. And it's subtle
enough that you barely trace the shift from one song to the next. I'm not sure why he
chose to cover two songs that aren't in sequence on the original album, but I guess
they just worked for him.
So Adem has made himself a covers record. He has his acoustic electronic way with
Aphex Twin, Bedhead, Bj÷rk, The Breeders, dEUS, Lisa Germano, PJ Harvey, Low, Pinback,
Smashing Pumpkins, Tortoise, and Yo La Tengo.
Enjoy !!!
