Adrian Fischer – the artist behind FlyinFisch
To categorize Adrian’s music into a particular, limiting genre would betray his roots and principles. The product of a multi-cultural upbringing, Adrian grew up in a home filled with classical, pop, reggae and new wave music. As he matured, Adrian developed an interest in the Afro-Caribbean beats of his native Venezuela, avant-garde jazz and electronic music. The result is an artist with a completely refreshing amalgam of rhythms, riffs and tonal colorations, reflecting Adrian’s unique and personal development as an artist and musician.
Adrian’s musical training began with classical and jazz piano at age six in Caracas, Venezuela. As a teen he formed several bands and became proficient in playing drums, the basis for his current fascination with layered syncopation. After interning at a major production studio in Caracas in 1999, Adrian began to experiment with an eight-track machine, and soon developed a love for recording, editing and processing his own music. It was not long before Adrian was invited to write soundtracks for films and a number of television ads.
In 2000, after completing an electronic music course in Barcelona, Adrian continued his study of music composition and performance at Rollins College. Later, at the California Institute of the Arts (CalArts), Adrian focused his studies mainly on music technology and electro-acoustic composition, until his graduation in 2005. In 2003, his Digital Concrete composition “Washing Machine” was nominated for an award in the CEAIT competition in Los Angeles. Throughout his career Adrian has enjoyed collaborating with artists such as Jose Luis Pardo (“Los Amigos Invisibles”), Nick Kello, Black Bamboo, Starmagix, Ben Roberts, Julio Moreno (Beautiful Days) and Dave "Mr.Cocoon" Cabrera.
His compositions are an experimental movement in space, with melodies that warm up your day and through his soundscapes you can sense Adrian’s interest in earth, life and his deep love of nature. His music and words are his philosophy with which he seeks to inspire positive consciousness.
Over the last seven years, Adrian has continued to develop his production and performance skills vigorously creating exciting new material. Last year saw the release of the electro / pop, reggae album (FlyinFisch) and a collection of electrifying shows with the FlyinFisch live band to support the album. This year he brings us a rocking-space-reggae funk album co-produced with Jose Luis Pardo (Los Amigos Invisibles)! And the live shows will keep on rolling to bring love out to new territory!
