Bittersweet by Esteban Adame

Los Angeles-based artist Esteban Adame's debut album, "Bittersweet," is a genre-bending blend of straight-ahead jazz, and the electronic soul of Detroit Techno. Drawing inspiration from his background, Esteban creates a unique soundscape that bridges the gap between classic and contemporary jazz. "Bittersweet" isn't just a fusion of genres, it's a deep exploration of their connections. The album features not only original compositions showcasing his expertise in both styles, but also a special dub mix inspired by Jamaican dub legends. This mix takes Esteban's music and reimagines it through the lens of dub, creating a spacey, echo-laden soundscape where jazz improvisation meets dub's signature heavy bass and hypnotic rhythms. It's a perfect example of how Esteban seamlessly blends his influences into a sound all his own.

Esteban Adame is a multi-faceted musician who wears many hats. A pianist and composer, and DJ who emerged from the vibrant Chicano/Latino rave scene of East Los Angeles in the 1990s.
