For this week's 6 Mix, Mary Anne Hobbs welcomes Balearic pioneers A Man Called Adam. Ahead of the release of Barefoot In The Head 26 Special Edition on 24 September, and before they host the Turner Prize 2026 After Party in Middlesbrough, Sally Rodgers and Steve Jones curate a selection of Balearic classics, leftfield electronics, soulful grooves and musical inspirations.
The duo's new release revisits every chapter of Barefoot In The Head, from the original four-track bedroom demo to rare archive recordings and brand-new 2026 mixes, celebrating the enduring legacy of one of Balearic music's defining tracks.
