Adam Sky- I Don't Give A Fuck About the 80s

Clarke Gable look-a-like/ stiletto-wearing electroclash scenester Adam Sky, who's just released a star studded 4 track EP (called Hopefiendz) chatted to Skrufff this week and revealed he loathes media comparisons to the 80s.

"I don't give a fuck about the 80s revival, I've lived in Italy and Spain for the last five years where the 80s never ended anyway," he pointed out.

"And after 20 years of nightclubbing, I don't care about the pond-life (scum- abuse Ed) who decree what's hot and what's not," the artist formerly known as Adamski complained.

The prolific producer (still best known by his 90s monicker Adamski) has collaborated with Crossover, Afrika Bambaataa and 70 year old Moonriver crooner Danny Williams on the new EP, though is planning to rely on technology for future live shows, he said.

"A mate of mine who is ex-Mutoid Waste is building me a robot with a video-screen instead of a face, as a substitute for drug addled and dysfunctional singers," he revealed.

"And yes, I do still wear stilettos on stage 'cause they are better for dancing, but I'm also referencing The Cramps and Sigue Sigue Sputnik (both legendary 80s alternative acts), who are two of my all time favourite acts."

"And I don't look like Clarke Gable either, more Terry Thomas", Adam added.
