On May day, Monday 5 May 2008, Adem is to release his third album on Domino. Called simply 'Takes', the album is a stunning and evocative collection of Adem's interpretations of tracks that were released in the decade from 1991 - 2001, music that inspired and informed Adem while he was growing up. With 12 tracks ranging from covers of Bjork, Smashing Pumpkins and Yo Le Tengo through to Tortoise and Aphex Twin, 'Takes'; Takes'; recorded at The Pool and Exchange studios, sees Adem step up from home-based to studio recording and sees him producing and playing every instrument himself.

@HurdyGurdyOliver: Fair enough, after all it's only my opinion. It's nothing near the original, though ... (I'll back off now, don't worry ^^)

@Heartxbeat87 Points don't matter and I don't like pointmakers, it's a good cover.

@ bjarthuyghe - that's potentially the least intelligent comment I've seen on Youtube.
Regardless of my opinion (which incidentally is that it's an excellent cover from an excellent artist) the statement that "you can't improve with your own version, just play like they do" is ludicrous. It completely misses the point of choosing to do a 'cover' of a song over simple imitation. By favouring imitation over innovation, why should other artists perform it at all? It's an inherently flawed argument.
