To the busy first half-century of my friend Adrian; what is the second one holding for us?

A friendly salute to Adrian Moore for his fiftieth birthday, and a return to Junky, an intense piece by this inventive composer, from which I grabbed a few sound sources that are typical of his writing and used here as the red thread running through my piece.

— Francis Dhomont [English translation: François Couture, ix-20]

Happy New Half-Century, Adrian was realized in 2019 at the composer’s studio in Avignon (France).
