Influenced by Sri Aurobindo as much as J Dilla, Thomas Pynchon as much as Edgar Varese, Charles Bronson as much as Sun Ra, Adam Diiler occupies an enigmatic position in the realm between jazz, hip-hop, and electronic music.

Returning to performing in 2007 after a two year retirement, Adam's work has been reviewed in the Wire, Magnet, Signal to Noise, the Stranger, Seattle Weekly, Splendid, and many other publications. He has performed throughout the United States, Canada, and Europe in festivals such as the Vancouver Jazz Festival, the Earshot Jazz Festival, and the afterears festival.

His work as a composer has been acknowledged by grants from Meet the Composer, the Helene Wurlitzer Foundation, the Jack Straw Foundation, and the City of Seattle.

He lives in Brooklyn, NY and is occupied with his band, $.99 Dreams and composing music for film. Other projects have included BNSF, doublends vert, eaglebee, and humph.

".. . At its most extreme, BNSF's music ripples, squeals, wails, splutters, and ululates like a menagerie of agitated beasts forced to endure Mariah Carey's Greatest Hits. Saxophonist Adam Diller scars the air with the tenacity of free-jazz titan Archie Shepp..." - The Stranger

". . . If BNSF is a runaway train, then Adam Diller on saxophone and timbales is the escaped convict/lunatic clutching to its rattling roof, trying to gain entry by smashing his boots through a high window. Diller's trademark use of slowly morphing repetition and sudden stops and starts was exaggerated to become almost dadaist in its toying with audience expectation." - Signal to Noise
