Adams' latest original music was released in 2018 via Local Action and STOOR, and the archive follows him through a period of inactivity. His journey with addiction is detailed in a statement that accompanies the new website.
He also wrote: "If you're struggling with addiction, taking the first step into recovery is a big one, but I'm certain you won't regret it. There is a lot of help available. It's free and nothing to feel ashamed of."
Since the beginning of the Mumdance archive in 2008, Adams has released music on labels including Tectonic and Keysound, co-founded the Different Circles label with Logos, and collaborated with musicians like Pinch and Novelist, as well as Speedy J.
