A.D.A.M. MUSIC PROJECT – “Free To Be Me”
A.D.A.M. stands for (Artists Developing Astonishing Music). Founded by Adam DeGraide with the idea that collaboration is the one of the best ways to make music, A.D.A.M. was born. The project features many fantastic artists from various bands.
The songs are inspired by video game characters from games both new and old. On the first 3 releases including the full length LP we focus exclusively on characters from the blockbuster Apex Legends. Using the characters from Adam’s favorite video game for inspiration would allow a ton of creativity that could inspire everything from the sound, melody and overall feel of the album. Wanting to make a pure ROCK album was the goal and the characters became the perfect subject matter in his opinion. As Adam DeGraide says “this is the ultimate fan art project”.
This album features over 25 different contributors from all walks of life. The ages of the artists range from 19 to 51. Variety is the spice of life and the A.D.A.M. MUSIC PROJECT delivers on that promise. The project has also recently recording 12 new songs to be released throughout 2023 with songs about Bowser, Princess Peach, Jill Valentine (Resident Evil), Cloud (Final Fantasy 7), Joel (Last of Us) and so much more.
The project is currently working on another 12 song LP called World Takeover and slated to be released in the summer of 2024.
“Free To Be Me”, is a nice proposal, which shows a good technical mastery in the genre to be proposed. Energetic and gritty general sound, with an aggressive and at the same time sharp vocal line. An intense and well-constructed general atmosphere where the dynamics make listening even more compelling and exalting.
“Free To Be Me” involves the listener by dragging him into a suggestive dimension that gives off excellent vibrations through scratchy guitars, which give a remarkable sound impact. A.D.A.M. MUSIC PROJECT , certainly has excellent potential to be able to propose original and not at all obvious ideas, surprising the listener in a positive way, managing to give even more a beautiful injection of energy.
