As one of Amsterdam's focal underground Progressive House figures - Adam Oland's latest endeavour Oland Recordings has resulted in a busy year of activities for the label boss and highly-rated producer. Now into the second year of projects on the imprint, Adam has stepped forward to present the latest number on his label himself.
With praise raining in from the likes of Sander Kleinenberg, Michael Cassette,
Miss Nine and spins from
Jaytech on Proton Radio - it's another success for Adam, whose underground Progressive House format is becoming a favourite of some of the premier league of the DJ world. Having already racked up releases on the likes of Nueva Digital, Lowbit, Indigo Records and many more - Adam's on the rise and it's down to nothing other than serious production talent and hard work.
'Foresight' is another fine example of why Adam is picking up serious hype from some of the top spinners on the planet. It's a grand production that's brimming with original synth work - a signature sound that's really becoming his own. Subtly uplifting, progressive throughout and loaded with intricate detail - 'Foresight' is a total package Progressive House track done properly. With the drums giving plenty of space for melodic sections, Adam fills the background with lush string sections and a stack of fresh synths that ooze originality and move in and out of the center with timely modulations and swells. The breakdowns take the chains off the synths and open out filters and low end to replace the kick's energy and it's there that 'Foresight' really lets loose its full melodic punch. Clearly a producer with a love for structure and progression, the single continues to grow over time and by the latter minutes of the track 'Foresight' is a seriously infectious and lively production.
Adam's production skills date back to 2006, when he took the job on to self-teach himself the ins and outs of music production in electronic music. Having picked it all up at an alarming rate, it was only a year later that he was a popular ghostwriter for many artists, further improving his sound and production knowledge. A self-stated emotional writer, Adam's sound is hard to pin down, but easy to detect passion in his works. Never one to stretch life out of a previously created sound or style, Adam always was an advocate of starting truly from fresh with every new creation. You'll not here recurring synth patches or formats in an Adam Oland production. As an all-round creative, when Adam's not in the music studio, he's working on other creative endeavours in design. Some people have no limits to their creativity and it would seem that Oland is one of these rare cases.
