about

Another of Adam's enigmatic titles, following in the footsteps of DWUMB stylistically if not conceptually. SHNIWMN is a word created by Adam's daughter, the meaning of which has been lost in the mists of time.
With free sections, cued ensemble moments, groove and a central theme that is only played in its fullness at the end. In some ways, this piece is the younger precocious sibling of Doug's Dessert, a piece that often went spontaneously in similar directions to SHNIWMN, without the benefit of the haphazard road map we used together.
Shnooksy blew up a storm - his sound is part of our sound, as when Adam was living overseas in 2003-5, Anton joined us as a permanent temporary replacement, and played on the Decadence album.

Apogee is Frock's 7th album.
