Now for something a little different.

An interview with the breakbeat guru Adam Freeland. The artist who had the world at his feet and quit the music life to literally go live in a desert. Topics covered include surviving off-grid, too many breakbeat bootlegs, why he quit DJing and is now back at it, the reverb found in Canyons and Bill Hicks.

 

 

 

 

 

Adam Freeland – LIVE @ Burning Man – 29.8.2003

 

 

Burning Man is an event focused on music, community, art, self-expression, and self-reliance held annually at Black Rock City in north western Nevada, The event derives its name from its culmination: the symbolic burning of a large wooden effigy, referred to as the Man, that occurs on the penultimate night of Burning Man, which is the Saturday evening before Labor Day.

This rare set from Adam Freeland was recorded LIVE at Burning Man back in 2003 and is a great selection of Nu Skool Breaks when Adam Freeland was in his prime as a DJ and artist.

The original files recorded levels were everywhere so i have fixed them up and mastered this mix as best i could.
