Adiafora is a collective of young ambitious musicians and rappers based in Stockholm, Sweden. Adiafora has been releasing music steadily for over three years now. After an inspiring collaboration with Los Angeles based star producer, Greg Wells, on their last EP “3D EP”, the band is now back with new single “Fortsatt” and the B-side “Sag som det ar”. Some artists are uniquely artistic. Some are passionate about important things. Some are good at bringing diverse genres together in new ways. With this album, Adiafora is all three.
As for Adiafora themselves, they make incredible music. An eleven piece collective, playing real instruments, their sound is very melodic and organically warm sounding, with many twists and turns within their musical arrangements, including very tights harmonies. I admit I don’t speak Swedish, so I can’t necessarily evaluate their lyric-writing skills, but the music itself is very good, while the flow of the language is mesmerizing, and it’s just pleasant to listen to.
I listened to both “Fortsatt” and the B-side “Sag som det ar”, on Spotify and was very impressed. Any music lover with a bit of an open mind that is open to many different styles of music should definitely give this a listen; it’s a nice mix of several different sounds. I guarantee Adiafora will come at you with something totally different and challenge your musical values.
Though this may be primarily defined as rap – and to be sure there are some great rap verses here (I’m taking about flow, as I cannot evaluate the lyrical content due to my own lingual ignorance) – what is also found here are varying musical influences that lift these tracks well above the confines of a strictly rap recording, into Alt-Pop and other alternative territories. Melodic tunes, really crisp and clear vocals and an extremely solid production.
It is this pushing of boundaries that makes Adiafora readily accessible to listeners whose main musical interest lies outside of rap while still carrying the standard of the best of what rap has to offer. If you are looking for a sound that comes from a change of pace from the plastic and artificial bombastic music that is all around us, unexpectedly, Adiafora delivers sublime and extremely elegant arrangements, and probably nothing like you will ever hear anywhere else , or from anyone else right now!
