Weird that nearly 30 years later this track still sounds fresh.

Hard to overstate how immense this bassline sounded in clubs compared to almost everything else at the time.

Such a humble guy. He could have made himself appear like some kind of synth wizard, but clearly very secure in himself. His work speaks for itself, and it's refreshing hearing people who are honest.

Simplistic yet still awesome 30 years later.. I'm glad I lived through 80's/90's, THE best two decades for music.

Adamski. If you read this I have to say that you are a legend to me. You were the one one for me that gave me the best nights of my life years ago. I danced to you playing live at lots of raves, illegal parties and some great nights. You were up there with all the top acts back then. Respect to you.

@christophercatto7184 2 жыл бұрын

Masterful. It's almost weird how Adam describes the messing around in such a simplistic way, since the track is certainly not a walk in the park, given how well the vocal and the strings and keyboards gel together.

@ChristianCawood Жыл бұрын

Adamski Killer was a walk in the park for Adam when he was innovating. If you play a few notes and run it through some random delay in the moment pressing buttons and it sounds good then you roll with it and that's a part finished. It takes a lot more effort to put something back together, like a broken vase. Also, Adamski Killer was mixed in a professional studio (Advision in London) on an SSL console with the SSL G-Master Buss Comp so that's the gel you are hearing.

This is fascinating. Great work, and Adamski dropping in was a nice touch too. If you're taking requests, I'd love Voodoo Ray deconstructed.

AMAZING! Nice, can’t wait to settle in for this one. I saw Seal perform it live in 2015 and he’s got the best voice of anyone I’ve ever heard. You could have taken the mic off him and he’d have filled that arena while still sounding amazing. Such a powerful vocal.
