Adamski

Adam Paul Tinley, known professionally as Adamski and later as Sonny Eriksson, was born on December 4, 1967 in Lymington, Hampshire, England. He began his musical journey at the age of 11 with his first band The Stupid Babies, influenced by punk rock and John Peel. In March 1989, Adamski made his solo debut at Le Petit Prince Restaurant in Kentish Town, quickly rising to prominence in the rave scene. His breakthrough came with the release of "N-R-G" and "Killer", a collaboration with Seal that reached Number 1 on the UK Singles Chart in 1990. Adamski's first album Liveandirect was released in 1989, followed by Doctor Adamski's Musical Pharmacy in December 1990. His subsequent albums included Naughty (1992), Adamski vs The Sentinels (1993), and Adamski's Thing (1998). Throughout the late 1990s, Tinley shifted focus to his DJ career under the moniker Adam Sky. In 2020, he released Free to Kill Again, featuring new interpretations of "Killer" with various guest artists followed by "Black Butterfly" (2022), a tribute to Mina Smallman's daughters Nicole and Bibaa, and "Black Star Acid" (2022).
