Biography [supplied by artist]
In 2000 Rannoch and Randon Purcell dropped their previous
project, Agnes Poetry, and began composing under the new
name, Adom9 - "Adom," a Latin word meaning "with
the gods," and "9" marking the number of
years the brothers had been writing music together.
In 2003 Adom9 began work on Missa de deux frères,
a newly composed, 4-8 voice choral Mass written in the
traditional Latin form and set to a combination of electronica
and orchestral music. Amy Recinos, a professional vocalist,
was recruited to as work on the mass moved forward, and
two years later the project was finished along with several
other songs.
The band's debut album Deluge was released in 2005, containing
all of Adom9's music to date. The music of Deluge is very
diverse, ranging from fast, break-beat and electronica,
to edgy alternative, to moving ballads.
