“I felt somewhat bleak for the future of dance music before I was introduced to Elliot's work. I put this down to being an old fucker, no longer able to throw all-nighters with conviction. Andrew Weatherall, the creative and free-thinking tribune of the acid house generation, had just passed, and I deeply despaired of finding people who could take up that mantle. Not just the immense creativity, but the brio and the sparkle of playfulness at such a premium in this po-faced era. There seems such scant pickings for any artist to draw on in our media society; all cut up and paste work on screens, no opportunity to immerse and get up to nonsense. But free spirits will always do their thing, infused with the notion that sometimes you just have to go off-grid and get fucked up and stagger through a sublime world of chance encounters, and see what it gives you back creatively; musically and visually. We won't be able to create another Weatherall, but thankfully we have been able to create an Adamson, and from the bottom of my heart I thank the gods of acid for him." - Irvine Welsh Elliot Adamson is a British music curator, producer, multi-instrumentalist, visual artist, and songwriter, primarily known for an autobiographical and confessional approach to sampling. His work can be categorized by its interdisciplinary approach which has used elements of conceptual art to reframe electronic dance music into a postmodern context.
