**Adamigs: The Rhythm of Resilience**

Born in the heart of Pretoria’s suburbs, Adamigs’ journey in music began long before he touched a turntable. Raised in a home where melodies filled the air, he inherited his parents’ passion for music, unknowingly shaping the path that would define his life.

At just nine years old, he stepped behind the decks, learning the craft from his father. What began as a skill became an obsession—a love affair with beatmatching, curating, and creating sonic experiences that move the soul. By his teenage years, Adamigs was no longer just a student of music; he was a performer, bringing life to neighbourhood events and sharing stages with legends like DJ Fresh, Ralf Gum, DJ Kent, DJ Christos, and Rowick Deep.

But his artistry didn’t stop at DJing. In high school, he discovered music production, realizing that he wanted to create, not just play. It wasn’t until university, however, that his talent began turning heads. His remixes on YouTube and Audiomack started gaining traction, with his version of Pluto amassing over 15,000 plays. He held a DJ residency at Tshwane FM’s Capcity Drive Show and secured a place in the top 10 of DJ Black Coffee’s AXE DJ competition—proof that he wasn’t just chasing a dream; he was living it.

Yet, like many great artists, Adamigs faced a moment of pause. His first love—music—had to wait while he completed his studies, a testament to his resilience and commitment to growth. But now, after years of honing his craft and embracing every challenge along the way, he has arrived at a defining moment—his brand-new album, Identity, has officially dropped. A deeply personal and sonically rich project, Identity explores themes of self-discovery, heritage, and resilience, with tracks like An Ode to Kin serving as a tribute to the connections that shaped him.

This isn’t just another release—it’s a statement, a declaration of artistry and purpose. With Identity, Adamigs isn’t just making music; he’s leaving a legacy. The waves are rising, and the world is about to experience the full force of his sound.
