Those of you who cut your electronic teeth on Fabric’s infamous mix CD series will need no introduction to Adam Freeland, during the face-pounding naughties Freeland rose to fame with his unique brand of eclectic breaks and electro, with notable tracks like ‘We Want Your Soul’ and his remix of Sarah Vaughan’s ‘Fever’ which he was nominated for a Grammy.
