Adam Sky...
(AKA The Artist Formerly Known As Adamski)

Adam Sky (real name Adam Tinley) made his first record at the tender age of 11, in 1979, as a member of the "Stupid Babies" with a record called "Babysitters". To be honest, i cant find a copy for love nor money so I've no idea what it was like, but it must've been good because a certain Mr John Peel played it regularly on his show. Nuff sed.
In the late 80's, having adopted the Adamski moniker, Adam started taking his sequencer, synth and drum machine to clubs, plugging into the mixer and performing live instrumentals. This eventually led to the release of the 1990 single, "NRG". I loved that record at the time...and I still love it now.
Let me say that again: I LOVE that record.
And so do a lot of people it would seem, judging by the reactions of crowds when we've played it in the clubs of Brno. A classic. I love it.
Anyways, enough already. Adam took a bit of time off over the last few years to make children rather than music, but now he's back. This month will see the launch of his new label, Prostitute records, so expect some more fresh freaky acid stuff to come from him very soon...
