Bio
Soundscape Artist. I build my tunes over the months, initially starting with an improvisation, allowing the various elements to come together and listening to what these want to become or manifest in to. Over the course of time they will evolve into a finished piece (I have to stop sometime ;P). This can take either a matter of months or a couple of years. I try to bring a digital album out once every two years. Between Heaven and Earth (2004), Stars (2006) and Sol (2008). I am currently working on Mandala (2010) and finalising tracks at the moment. A couple have been uploaded on to here. You can hear a selection at www.adamgrose.com.

Hey man, Amazing Beats is Evolving. From July we are extending the show and therefore have the opportunity to highlight artists further via the medium of a guest mix. So if your up for it I challenge you to mix up your favorite tracks on Amazing to the tune of 30 Minutes. Usual rules apply, try not to pick music with swearing or obvious samples. Hope you take up the challenge of mixing for the nation. Just upload your mix to a file sharing site and drop me the link. Good luck
