About Adrian Younge
Adrian Younge applies a crate-digger's perspective to organic syntheses of myriad Black music idioms while incorporating European progressive rock, pop, and film music. The prolific producer, composer, and multi-instrumentalist came to notice with his soundtrack for Black Dynamite (2009), the first of many works created for visual media. Something About April (2011) expanded his scope with conceptual psychedelic soul that led to helming albums by the Delfonics, Ghostface Killah, and Bilal. After Younge and Ali Shaheed Muhammad solidified a long-standing partnership with 2018's lush The Midnight Hour, they launched the Jazz Is Dead platform. Its first two series showcased legends including Roy Ayers, Marcos Valle, and Tony Allen. Series three was in progress when Younge finished his lovestruck trilogy with the Portuguese-language Something About April III (2025) and teamed up with singer Samantha Schmütz for Adrian & Samantha. In October, he released JID025 in collaboration with Brazilian singer Carlos Dafe.
