Adam Young The Ascent Of Everest
Check out my blog, where I post reviews like this every month! oliviajthewordshaker.blogspot.com

Usually, I'm a bit wary of this new territory that Adam is venturing into, but this month, I felt every bit as confident that this month's score would be just as fan-freaking-tastic as the previous month's.

I'm sad to say that I wasn't entirely right this month.

However, a little disclaimer. If Adam Young decided to move to Idaho and farm potatoes until he died, I'd support it. If he decided to do anything, I'd most likely back it up. So that means I am sticking wit		4.0

Adam Young The Spirit of St. Louis
Check out my reviews on my blog, at oliviajthewordshaker.blogspot.com!

For some odd reason, every month I worry that the album's not going to strike with me.


And then, Adam always pulls through and makes another gem. The emotions always translate beautifully, and the interesting thing about these albums is they make you want to go research the event, and be immersed into the story.

Magically epic, the full strings and pounding drums will make any land-lover's heart soar.

Adam Young RMS Titanic
James Cameron's Titanic is my guilty pleasure movie.


So naturally, I was thrilled to find out that Adam's next composer album was The RMS Titanic. Given the scale and the epicness of Apollo 11, I wondered, doubted, if that would translate into the deeply emotional and traumatic tale of the Titanic.


And, of course, Adam did.


At first, I was stunned by the entirely different composition, and feel of the album. But, like many things, it grew on me, and still, each time I listen, I find something new buried in the folds of Adam's music.

Adam Young Apollo 11
Check out my blog where I post all of these reviews monthly! oliviajthewordshaker.blogspot.com

He is a musical genius. The quality of music that he produces is always stellar - and this has got to be a step up from Mobile Orchestra. On that note, I find it interesting the connection between Mobile Orchestra and this first installment of this project. However, I was completely enthralled by this album and am ecstatic about the months to come.

In case you were not already aware, on January first, Adam announced that he would be taking a break from Owl City to work on something he described as 'conceptual fil		4.5
