All Genres > Electronic > Soundscapes > ADELAIDE: adelaide

Adelaide formed in the summer sun of 2003, in Portland, Oregon.
A fascination with the combinations of sound and image led them to create a live show that includes 16mm film projections, electronics and live instrumentation. Rhodes, guitar, bass, synthesizer, and drums twist into soundscapes that provide a pulsing soundtrack to live projections of found footage. Adelaide is Michael Bauch, Adam Porterfield, Ethan Rose, Bob Muscarella, and Ryan Jeffery.

"Adelaide isn't just a band; it's a group of archeologists. After forming last summer, the Portland quintet dug through reels and reels of old 16mm film to find scratchy, yellowed footage featuring early-20th-century city life. Projected behind the band during shows, the films have a strange voyeuristic quality when accompanied by Adelaide's spacey compositions that mix ethereal electronics and minimal guitar and drum parts. It honestly feels like you're spying on a quaint past from the complex confines of the future." (Mark Baumgarten, Wilamette Week)
