I really wanted to get “all around” with this mix - I wanted to showcase some of the different “genres” (not a fan of that word lol) that I enjoy, especially during the summer.
Most of my friends already know that I love experimental pop music, so that’s really where it all started. I freestyled almost everything on this mix because I wanted to. This summer I’m trying to loosen up and not care about perfecting every detail - in everything that I do. Let’s make errors and enjoy the sun. However I do feel very radiant everytime I listen to these tracks and I hope you will too!
Sonically the inspiration originates from new realms of experimentation with sound.
An absorption of technology, the ocean, the cosmos and electronic music guides ADEXIA through the unfathomable scale of existence. She’s pushing for cultural progression and makes it very clear that experimentaland hyperkinetic soundscapes are the future. Her demanding and aggressive bass pushes you to the limits of surrealism, creating a cutthroat contrast between her futuristic, bubbly synths accompanied by feminine vocals. Confused by the complexity of the world we live in, ADEXIA still manages to let her music do the talking.
Dodging the limitations imposed by tidy labels, ADEXIA uses sound design and technology to manipulate the balance between human and machine. She creates a fluid and playful ecosystem around her visions and concepts whereas physical form and the existence of gender seems meaningless. Combining consciousness and design beyond gender or genre, she manages to challenge and distort social constructs and binaries and ultimately questions what it means to be anything.
