To modify anything is to simply make changes. It would then make sense for well-respected musicians Adam Scrimshire and Dave Koor to come together to alter the current state of music, powered by sophisticated instrumentation and the idea of futurism. This concept of pushing sound forward also comes from firmly planted roots steeped deep in jazz, soul, funk, afrobeat, rock, electronica and more. These are genres that both Scrimshire and Koor know well with keen expertise. This is also why their 'Modifications: Set 1' album under the guise of Modified Man will undoubtedly go down as one of the most entertaining and important releases of the year.

Modified Man is the new musical project of respected South London-based producer, musician and Wah Wah 45s co-owner Adam Scrimshire and musician/producer Dave Koor. Both who have been at the helm of creating forward-thinking sounds, the pair have come together to release their debut collaborative EP 'Modifications: Set 1', out June 10th on Albert's Favourites. Six tracks in total, the new record uses live instrumentation to bridge the past, present and idea of the future fostering a unique take of hazy soul, cosmic jazz, deep broken beat and more.
A true musician will aim at making a recording that qualifies as a timeless work of art and in the process, touches our hearts and soul. Artist, producer and Wah Wah 45 label head Adam Scrimshire humbly took that position by drawing from his eclectic canvas of musical inspirations, successfully bridging them into carefully woven pieces that escaped the suicidal title of “fusion” and instead flaunted that of “finely executed sounds”.
