Adam Freeland’s
Critically acclaimed debut album ‘Now & Them’, released
under the Freeland moniker in May 2003 was a sonic masterclass.
Fusing gnarling rock and filthy bass heavy beats the album spawned
the monster single and one of the years biggest anthems ‘We
Want Your Soul’. A worldwide tour followed where Adam and his
band played everywhere from Coachela and The Burning Man festival
in the US, The Good Vibrations Tour in Australia and The Reading
and Leeds festival in the UK.
As one of the
world’s leading DJs Adam Freeland’s profile has rocketed
since the release of ‘Now And Them’. He has recently supported
Massive Attack and The Prodigy on tour. Played alongside Metallica
at Rock in Rio, Headlined the Glastonbury Festival dance tent live
on Radio 1 and has residencies at all around the world. Adam is
currently in the studio working on his new album, due in spring
2006.
Adam Freeland:
"When asked to compile this Back to Mine, I initially starting
scouring my record collection for my favourite records of all time
and those that have had the biggest influence on my style. But where
do you start? There has been dozens of amazing compilations by dj's
and artists citing their influences. The gauntlet was truly set
as to who can pull out the dopest, rarest and most obscure gems.
So I just decided to 'Do what it says on the tin' and put together
a list of tracks that I'm playing back at my place on Marine Parade
in Brighton right now. Some old some new, some well known, some
more obscure, but all by artists who I'm totally in love with. This
is a snapshot of some of my favourite tracks that are keeping my
neighbors up right now. I have compiled the mix to start all guns
blazing, as you would want to hear arriving back home steaming after
a big night, then, as the evening progresses, it gradually mellows
out to end up as a stoned, horizontal, blissfull haze."
