Launch Yourself by Adem


This was the first Adem song I ever heard and is still by far my favorite. The melody is choked full of hooks. The sound is warm and intimate. The percussion is playful and pushes things forward. The arrangement is original and satisfying. A lot of the rest of his work falls too far into the boring/generic area just adjacent to this sound that I like to call The Coldplay Zone. It's not a pretty place. But then again, it's not an ugly one either...
