Scientific Cricket

'Grampall Jookabox (think 'Grandpa Jukebox' as slurred by a three-year-old) was formed as an alter ego for Midwest producer/songwriter David Adamson. The Indianapolis native developed a love for hip-hop at a young age, laying down rhymes over boombox beats on a four-track recorder given to him by his uncle. Those jams eventually morphed into an eclectic blend of blues-kissed psychedelic rock reminiscent of bands like Animal Collective, TV on the Radio, and Odelay-era Beck, culminating in a heady, trippy debut for the Joyful Noise label called Scientific Cricket in 2007, followed by Ropechain on Asthmatic Kitty the following year.' - James Christopher Monger, All Music Guide
