Escalator Music by Adam Strömstedt
Adam Strömstedt's second release following 2019's Redfern EP, features 11 tracks of elegant chords and softcore acid basslines that instantly fit perfectly into our universe.
The album as a whole works excellently with slippers and morning coffee, while individual tracks definitely also aiming at the, now returning, dancefloor. Although more reminiscent of a very life affirming sunrise party than a 90s rave in Sheffield. Check out the opening track "SWF" or "Desperate Housevibes" for further reference.
So you can at least impute a little wink to the Junk Yard Connections member in naming his album "Escalator Music," as it conjures up hazy visions and lucid dreams on the way to the next floor, but you don't enter it without at least making discreet dance moves.
Adam has succeeded in creating a debut LP that is absolutely delightful, warming nostalgic, but also timeless and will make the coming cold season seem a lot warmer to us.
