Adam F ‘Circles’ | The Making Of A Drum & Bass Classic

30 years on from its original release, Adam F shares the story of his seminal drum & bass classic ‘Circles’.

Released in 1995, ‘Circles’ didn’t chart til it’s re-release two years later as the first single from Adam F’s debut studio album ‘Colours’. Made on various vintage studio gear, the song was finished until Adam decided to sample Bob James’ ‘Winchester Lady’ after hearing the two tracks play side by side – a choice which later provided a few hurdles.

Here, Adam explores his early introduction into music, from busking on the streets of Camden to winning a MOBO award, and how ‘Circles’ has taken on new life with PinkPantheress’ ‘Break It Off’ and last years’ revisited released.

Electronic music history is rich with unforgettable and timeless classics. In our series, DJ Mag explores the tales behind some of the world’s favourite dance tracks, told by the people that made them.
