, une table Mackie 32-8bus (je n'ai pas réussi à identifier le synthé à gauche de la table, peut-être un Roland V-Synth ?)

Released in 1997, Colours, the debut album from Adam Fenton – aka Adam F – is an undisputed classic of drum & bass. Combining chopped breaks and synth basslines with jazz-indebted melodies and guest spots from the likes of Tracy Thorn, Grooverider and the late MC Conrad, the album showcased a song-focused, eclectic take on dance music.
“What's good about when you first make music is that it's coming from a very innocent place,” Fenton tells us, when we sit down to discuss that album’s creation. “It's very honest and it's very organic. And that's what the Colours album was about.”
Fenton wasn’t entirely inexperienced when it came to making his debut album. Adam comes from a musical family, including his father, the singer and actor Alvin Stardust, aka Shane Fenton. His formative years saw him playing a variety of instruments and experimenting with recording from a young age.
“I started making music when I was about 14 or 15,” Fenton tells us. “I guess back then, a lot of people had a reel-to-reel as a recording facility. I had a Tascam 388, which is a reel-to-reel with a built-in little mini mixing desk with eight tracks. My experience with recording artists or musicians or, you know, any kind of instrumentation or synthesizers was just from recording my own music. That's how I learned to record music.
“I was also in a funk band, and used to go around London and actually perform and play with live musicians. I'd sing at the front of the funk band. So I was used to playing with musicians and then recording my own music.“
Despite its influence, Colours has long been difficult to get hold of, either on streaming platforms or in physical form. This year, Adam F is tackling that head-on with the release of Colours Revisited, which sees Adam not only remastering the tracks, but re-recording much of the original material – even going so far as restoring the vintage instruments involved.
To mark its release, we met up with Fenton in London's World Heart Beat Studios for an in-depth chat about the original album and the process of reworking it.
