Another Essential Mix from 2003 was from another Nu Skool Breaks legend Adam Freeland. Pretty much the height of his career at this time with so many tunes under his belt from his label Marine Parade and so many bootlegs under different alias's it was a healthy time for the breaks scene and much loved by all.

This mix was aired on BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix from Adam Freeland back in 2003.

Adam Freeland - Essential Mix - 11.5.2003

Aloha,

Here you go my friends, something different from me….

This is not a promo mix and I’m not trying to generate work off the back of it, it’s simply a mid-tempo DJ mix.  I have been collecting tracks for a while that didn’t seem to fit anywhere in my sets, but that I really love, so I decided to put them into a mix in their own right… music with a late night, deep & sleazy electronic feel, full of atmosphere, with a splattering of dark funk thrown in. 

I’ve got plenty of brand new peak time releases coming shortly on my Lowering The Tone imprint, from Pook/ & Lola, Lee Coombs, Matt Goddard/Dopamine, Ben Coda, Carbon Kingdom and myself, but in the meantime welcome to the “Den Of Iniquity” :-)

Enjoy!!

Mark (Meat Katie)

► Release Info:

Always at the vanguard of modern dance music, "Convergence" finds Mango Alley moving toward a new singularity. Melding diverse ribbons of music into a collective woven strand, a new project brings together a collection of the finest underground house, curated by the scene's most important tastemakers, channels and influential voices. Where the confluence of music and mind emerge, a powerful new force flows from within to create a vortex of sonic patterns that reach the very core of progressive music's ineffable quality.

Creating a resonant force that spirals outwards across the Atlantic, Canadian dynamism sees Super Progressive as the first progenitor of the "Convergence" series. An arrow to the heart of underground dance royalty, Quivver stands alongside artists from Europe and Australia, to Asia, North and South America, with another electronic storm. Dowden and Maze 28 combine with a wealth of Argentinean talent in chroma brilliance. Jares and Taylan's vivid shades of blue focus the mind in disconnect from the real world where Elliot Moriarty reveals his Rosario Dreams that fire the auditory synapses. Super Progressive journeys through rhythm and melody with poise, purpose and exacting sonic craftsmanship.

Rising US producer HARDEN is back on August 29th with new single Fugazi.

Following the breakout success of his debut EP, which hit #1 on Beatport’s Indie Dance Chart and placed all three tracks in the Indie Dance Singles Chart, HARDEN has quickly established himself as a name to watch. As a DJ, HARDEN has played at sold-out shows across Miami, Denver, and Las Vegas, and at home in Denver is developing a world-class studio and artist hub in the city’s vibrant RiNo Arts District.

He is the founder of Casa Alta, a label and event brand known for turning untapped spaces and historic venues into riotous, sold-out parties from immersive installations to warehouse takeovers. He is also a partner in Phase 3 who co-produced a standout week of shows during Miami Music Week, hosting the likes of Chris Lake, Gorgon City, MoBlack, Skepta, and Francis Mercier at the now-iconic Toejam Backlot.

A mid-tempo roller that simmers with cinematic tension, ‘Fugazi’ blends textured sound design and deep, rolling percussion with eerie hooks and gritty synth motifs. The result is a mid-tempo roller that simmers with cinematic tension and fuses haunting melody with club-ready power.

This is another statement release from an artist unafraid to push boundaries.

My closing set from DISTRIKT at 2012's Burning Man was such a spectacular 2+hours.

With the world in partial lockdown, this 1-hour LIVE set was specially curated and performed in June 2020 to celebrate Glastonbury 2020 for my friends at the legendary GLADE stage.

I used 8 Ableton decks, 6 channels of live keyboard overdubs, an APC40, Launchkey 61 and 4 full days of my time to lovingly piece this one together. 

If anyone's able to correctly identify each component part of this mix, I'll send you my entire record collection. Muah!!
