Originally, this project started Scott Xylo, a British producer & Songwriter of Jamaican descent befriended Welsh guitarist Adam Martin (ADEEMUS) whilst working together at a coffee shop in Leicester, UK. The duo originally teamed up to work on new Scott Xylo material, but they would eventually add Irish-Nigerian vocalist Demigosh after meeting at a gig in late 2019.
Officially being a trio since February of this year, Shadeemus has already put out one 5-track EP called Arakis in June, as well as a couple of singles since that release.
I caught up with the Scott Xylo and Adam Martin via Zoom and we talk about what starting new project in the midst of a global pandemic looks like, as well as how not allowing themselves to be put in a defined genre gives the group the freedom to really push the envelope and get weird with whatever they are working on.
Here’s my chat with Scott and Adam of Shadeemus.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
