the whole biography
(written by Apryl Fuentes for Cult Classic Magazine Issue 03) "Adam, a.k.a. foreigner, is a Swiss knife of innovation, single-handedly teaching himself how to DJ and go on to produce some of LA's most memorable Afrodiasporic events. As I sat with him on the eve of Roadblock™️, his latest underground Afro/Caribbean operation, Adam shared some memories with me of growth between cities and the impact this had on his identity. Born in Trinidad and Tobago, raised in Caracas, Venezuela then NYC, the moniker, foreigner, speaks to the multiplicity of his experiences traversing the map. ...foreigner approaches parties with pure artistry and intentionality, utilizing spaces like blank canvases for experience… Events like Play™, Junkyard Jouvert, and his most recent Roadblock™, are his way of bringing people together on space with the common goal of cultural ownership and pride. ‘The way my philosophy is evolving, I really want to center people from the diaspora, specifically people behind the scenes and behind the decks. Oftentimes, in the underground scene, you hear Afrodiasporic music, but you’ll seldom see black people playing it. It just hit me at a certain point that there are so many talented black people in LA that create and play the music that inspires me, that are only limited to mainstream platforms, which are very scarce in LA.’ Adam Cooper is humble in admitting intentions to evolve his craft and contributions to his community. For foreigner, his visions exist beyond one party, it is his desire to provide space for carefree, black joy, and recontextualize diasporic unity, that make all his ideas boundless. This is an effort that won't end and he wants you to see he's coming up with this year. Chances are you might not know what to expect. foreigner is now, foreigner is here, foreigner is there, foreigner forever."Recently at Bar Society, Bogart House · often with Ethan Tomas, Max Glazer, Proper Edakit, none of them here that night
