The above quote, found in the liner notes to A.M.'s debut album, "This Is Me, Dancing", summarizes the artist's approach to sample-based music; it is the art of uniting what are seemingly incompatible styles of music to create something truly new.
The songs on "This Is Me, Dancing" combine live instruments (played by A.M. and several collaborators) with samples from a wide variety of sources to create new and irresistably catchy music guaranteed to leave a smile on your face. Each song evokes a different atmosphere or emotion, while leaving enough space for the listener's own interpretation. Inspired by the many styles of music he samples...from classical to jazz to funk to broadway musicals...A.M. has created a musical collage that can entertain the casual listener while providing enough substance to intrigue those with a keen ear for musical form.
A.M. began as the electronic side project of Andrew Moore, guitarist/vocalist of the now-defunct independent Toronto band Oberlin. A 4th grade teacher with a background in both piano and voice, this album has been in the works for over four years, and is perhaps the most personal of Moore's musical projects.
If you are a fan of Lemon Jelly, Groove Armada, DJ Shadow, Mr. Scruff, or other electronic/hip hop/ambient instrumental artists, A.M. will give you something to think about, and more importantly, something to dance about.

Dragonfly
A.M. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Where the universe revolves around the pupil of an eye
And infinities stretch out from infinities within
And I'm a part of everything, I'm a part of everything
Am I falling asleep? Is it all just a dream?
Well, the cars are like water and the road is like a stream
Rolling down through the city, flowing out into the sea
When the morning starts to glow out in the corners of the sky
All the people come and go, and the time just passes by
Then I'm only gonna see it from the corner of my eye
When the planet spins, it sings like the wings of a dragonfly
I can see it all tonight
I can see it all tonight
I can see it all tonight
I can see it all tonight
The lyrics of A.M.'s song "Dragonfly" speak to a deep and profound sense of connectedness to the universe. The opening lines describe the beauty of the night sky and the awe-inspiring concept of the universe revolving around the pupil of an eye. The song goes on to explore the idea of infinite possibilities and how we are a part of everything, which is emphasized in the repeating line, "I'm a part of everything."
There is a sense of detachment and detachment from reality in the second verse, with the question of whether it's all just a dream or not. The metaphor of cars as water and the road as a stream gives a surreal sense of movement, like being adrift and without direction. The repetition of "going nowhere like me" reinforces the feeling of being lost and alone.
Finally, the song circles back to the theme of the night sky and the passing of time. The morning comes, people go about their business, and time continues on. However, there is still a sense of wonder and connection in the description of the planet spinning and singing like the wings of a dragonfly. The final repetition of "I can see it all tonight" emphasizes the idea of being present in the moment and experiencing the beauty of the world around us.
Overall, "Dragonfly" is a song that explores the idea of our place in the universe and the deep sense of connection that we can feel if we stop to appreciate the world around us.
