about

Leaving live drums and acoustic instruments behind in favour of making tracks with a more immediate, speedy, synthesised approach, the Aeshim experiments happen through strict time limitations. Adam Scrimshire's debut album under the Aeshim pseudonym, “Or…”, was written and produced in the first two weeks of lockdown in the UK.

Plasma Party calls back to the cut and paste production of Adam Scrimshire's popular re-edits, with soulful vocal cries and echoing electronic bass snapping through the beats, Plasma Party is emotional music with an appeal to the more downtempo dance floor too.

The debut album Plasma Party is taken from takes time to explore these ideas and more, from ambient soundscapes, to dubbed out piano sounds and growling sub arpeggios. And though electronic in form, there are still Scrimshire’s soul influences threaded throughout, clipped vocal harmonies and Rhodes pianos take a place inside the roomy drum loops and sizzling Juno chords.

“I’ve called it “Or…” because the world is at such a seemingly pivotal moment of potential progress. Return to normal, or pursue change. Accept what was, or demand something better. “Or…” is also part of a more personal question for me about who I am now and day-to-day, both as a writer and producer (Scrimshire or Aeshim) and as a person growing into their 40s, with the development and change that brings with it.

Aeshim’s “Or…” is released on Albert’s Favourites, the label formed by Adam, who also mixed and mastered the album, his Modified Man partner Dave Koor, and Jonny Drop, who created the artwork. The label has released projects by Hector Plimmer, Rōnin Arkestra, Huw Marc Bennett, The Expansions, Scrimshire, and Jonny Drop.
