VINNY DA VINCI (METRO FM / HOUSE AFRIKA)
Adaptation Music welcome back Caliorange with their third EP on the label, this one another fantastic deep house affair entitled ‘Secrets EP’.
Opening the EP is ‘Lunar Vortex’, which is a very deep, atmospheric and hypnotic journey, laden with old school Detroit chords, stabs and spacey vocals. One for the true deep house heads and fans of the early 90s vibe. The ‘B side’ is a deep, driving and funky, bass heavy track entitled ‘Talk Kink’ which does what it says in the title with it’s x-rated vocal, whilst also being a deliberate pun.

HIPPIE TORRALES (MOTOWN / ARISTA / TURNTABLE ORCHESTRA)
Adaptation Music’s 136th release is a jazzy, soulful house affair with hints of latin from Tom Conrad, entitled ‘Belleza Ùnica’.
Originally set out to be an instrumental for a world renowned vocalist at their request, ‘Belleza Ùnica’ took a different turn prior to getting that far and instead became a full on soulful, jazzy, piano infused affair, with flavours of the 90s New York house scene alongside some Latin American influences.
Tom continues to release music under several aliases, this being a rare exception to the rule seeing as the track has personal ties. Despite maintaining several busy aliases, there are a few more forthcoming gems to look out for under Tom’s name in 2023.

VINYL RELEASE – Thylacinus & Da Funksta ‘A New Beginning’
For fans of old school, LoFi and mainly instrumental hip hop and funky downtempo beats in the style of Pete Rock, MF Doom’s Special Herbs series, Mushroom Jazz and LTJ Bukem’s Cookin Records imprint, here is my first ever vinyl release which is under my ‘Thylacinus’ (pronounced ‘thigh-lah-sinus’) alias alongside the brilliant Da Funksta, comprising 10 tracks and entitled ‘A New Beginning’.
It’s a limited edition run of just 250 copies worldwide, with the artwork image from none other than the Mushroom Jazz legend himself Mark Farina. It’s exclusively available on Bandcamp or you can buy direct from me (which would be cheaper, as no fees from third parties – send me a direct message) and I’ll ship to anywhere in the world. I would really appreciate your support on this project which took a very long time and lots of effort to put together, so we’re hopeful this will certainly not disappoint!

“Vibes!!”
B&S CONCEPT (LARGE MUSIC / SALTED MUSIC)
“Wonderful”
MANNIX (DAFIA / TROPICAL DISCO / SPA IN DISCO)
“Very nice keys here”
FINEST WEAR (LARGE MUSIC / NORDIC TRAX)
“Lovin the 90’s vibe. Very nice track!”
SEAN SMITH (SMOOTH AGENT / CLASSIC MUSIC COMPANY)
Adaptation Music’s 129th release is a deep, Detroit/Chicago inspired house track from Tom Conrad entitled ‘Memories Of You’.
The track begins with some deep Detroit chords leading into a Chicago inspired bass line leading into a beautiful early 90s piano solo layered with atmospheric synth sounds. Arguably one of Tom’s finest deep house tracks to date but we’ll let you be the judge.
This release is a follow up to both ‘Spirit Molecule’ and Tom’s remix of El Funkador & Lee Wilson’s ‘Give Me’ which is already his most played track ever on Spotify to date. Expect several more tracks and remixes from Tom over the coming months under his own name and his three current aliases.

NEW RELEASE – Tom Conrad ‘Spirit Molecule’
“Smooth’n’melodious yet truly spell binding”
SPIRIT OF HOUSE (REVIEWS)
“Great release!”
JUST MO (YFM SOUTH AFRICA)
“Lovely”
MANNIX (DAFIA / TROPICAL DISCO / SPA IN DISCO)
“Sweet lush groove”
HIPPIE TORRALES (MOTOWN / ARISTA / UNIDISC)
“Deep and Soulful! Thanks!!!”
PHAZE DEE (LARGE MUSIC / MOULTON MUSIC / SUB_URBAN)
“Thanks, beautiful track!”
YOSHI HORINO (UNKNOWN SEASON)
Adaptation Music’s 123rd release is a deep, thought provoking summery track from Tom Conrad entitled ‘Spirit Molecule’.
The track starts with sweeping pads and chords alongside classic 80s beats and builds into a melodic summery deep house track with lush piano and synth stabs, perfect for pool/beach/sunset/sunrise occasions. The track is supposed to resemble a positive spiritual thought provoking journey about searching into the depths of the unknown, relative to the effects of DMT and space exploration, as per the vocal.
This release is a follow up to Tom’s remix of El Funkador & Lee Wilson’s ‘Give Me’ which is already his most played track ever on Spotify to date. Expect several more tracks and remixes from Tom over the coming months under his own name and his three current aliases.

“Class!”
DUBMAN F. (NERVOUS / I! RECORDS)
“Superb, great!”
JOAN RIBAS (PACHA / IBIZA SONICA)
“Biiig!”
MANNIX (DAFIA / TROPICAL DISCO)
“Great release!”

“Great combination, love the track”
OCTOPUZ (ATJAZZ RECORD COMPANY / ANCESTRAL RECS)
The 20th release on Cosmic Elements is an 80s inspired track from Tom Conrad featuring Andy Compton on guitar duties.
Lush chords, atmospheric pads, dreamy keys, solid beats and synth bass are layered with a superb guitar solo from Andy Compton (The Rurals) and take you back to the nostalgic 1980s, arguably the finest era for music overall. This track has summer written all over it.
Tom and Andy combine once again after their ‘Textures EP’ release in 2020, the remixes of which will be released within the next month or so.
