Synthetic Serenity is your second LP on On Rotation, how would you describe the album and how it differs from your debut?
Adam Pits: It’s a reflection of my fascination with sound design. My aim was to create an immersive experience that touched on all of the influences that have brought me here today. I guess it’s a sonic progression from the first album—moving towards a more refined, technical body of work.
What’s coming next for you after your new album?
AP: I’ve got a couple of releases in the works. All touching on different vibes and genres. My constant fear of becoming bored with music production is driving my necessity to try new sonic journeys. It’s not always music that necessarily resonates with my soul, but I always come away from each project with new knowledge and influence.
