Adam Strömstedt's debut LP features 11 tracks of elegant chords and softcore acid basslines that instantly fit perfectly into the KANNuniverse. The album as a whole works excellently with slippers and morning coffee, while individual tracks definitely also aiming at the dancefloor. Although more reminiscent of a very life affirming sunrise party than a 90s rave in Sheffield.
So you can at least impute a little wink to the swedish 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 Strömstedt has succeeded in creating a record that is absolutely delightful, warming nostalgic, but also timeless and will make the coming cold season seem a lot warmer to us. Whether in the club or in the kitchen.
