Adamned.age (Hanne Adam), born and grown up in Hamburg in 1977, is an artist residing in Berlin who already began very early practising music on piano, guitar and drums. She mainly played drums in punk- and crossover-bands and started her first solo-recordings on an 8-track-taperecorder.In 1996 she integrated computer-technology and virtual instruments to create her first electronic-music-works in trip-hop-/downtempo-style. She never stopped singing because vocals are considered as a particular experiment. Intense experiments on hard- and software involved transformations of sounds and samples to click and cut-elements that have become a relevant basis for the rhythmic and percussive tracks of her minimal techno-style.
Recently she re-concentrated mainly on sound-design (an integral part of her former studies) and experimental structures leading to electronica and IDM-style. Beside these styles she still works on her well-known downtempo-structures, combined with ambient sounds.In addition, many collaborations such as remixes and multimedial projects are part of Hanne's complex musical carrier.Due to her immense artistic output, Hanne Adam is often characterized as a very busy person. In fact, working on musical media, paintings, graphics, photographies and films is the most essential part in her life to create means of communication with the inner- and outside-world. Music as a constant work in progress that serves as a liberation of mind.

This ep is a good way of seing the way as she actually sees, listens and makes music, what music represents to her, and how much she needs music to live.

    • What's a netlabel?


    I won’t obviously explain you that in here but you can easily find that information in wikipedia at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netlabel and information about creative commons in http://creativecommons.org

    Is this music really free? Just download?.. Do i need to pay to play it in clubs?


    Yes it's free. All tracks are released under a by-nc-nd creative commons license (unless otherwise specified), and are also all unsigned from any of those artist royalties ripoff associations. That means that it's free to download, distribute and broadcast without needing to pay anything to anyone, not even to the GEMA / RIAA / SPA / SGAE / TEOSTO / whatever. The only thing you can't do with it is claim ownership or release any derivatives commercially without the artists permission. All broadcasting and non profit distribution activity is perfectly legal and legislated.

    Can i share these releases using bittorrent or other p2p applications?


    Yes. We want our releases and artists to be known across the whole multiverse and beyond. So please _do_ abuse whatever independent distributing technology you see fit, including http, ftp, dcc, fserver, cdr, radiocast, webcast, bittorrent and whatever other p2p solution you can imagine. Just as long as you are not collecting money from our artists work, you're free to re-distribute it in any way you see fit.

    This is great, how can i support you guys?


    If you like a specific artist we encourage you to support them directly, check their myspace pages for special contributions and upcoming events. We will prepare ourselves to receive also paypals donatives to help promote de musicians (printing CDRs and DVDs to sell at a symbolic price, and so on).
