Grammy-nominated hit-makers, Freemasons, are back with ‘Shakedown 3’, a huge triple CD album full of massive new tracks guaranteed to set dancefloors alight...
Released 4th August on Freemaison Recordings, this highly anticipated, brand new album features 2 DJ-mixed discs of new Freemasons productions and new versions of their biggest hits, with the 3rd disc packed full of individual edits of all the new tracks! The iTunes release will also come with further bonus tracks, completing a must-have collection for any dance music fan.
Freemasons a.k.a. Russell Small and James Wiltshire, are firmly established as one of the most successful dance music acts the UK has ever produced. In a 10 year career, their trademark, uplifting, disco house sound, has so far delivered 6 top 20 hits. Their reputation as the best remixers in the business is backed up by a stunning list of artists remixed, including Beyonce, Whitney Houston, Kelly Rowland, Kylie, Jamiroquai and George Michael, and more recently, the likes of John Newman, London Grammar and Katy Perry. Their mix of Beyonce ‘Déjà vu’ saw them nominated for a Grammy, underlining their global popularity.
After taking a break in 2011, Freemasons stripped down their studio, rebuilt it and got back to work. James explains,“Shakedown III is the culmination of several years studio work. Sonically it’s the best we've ever sounded and musically the most varied. As club music has diversified into so many genres we noticed that our work had two distinct personalities, which are represented by the different styles of the 2 main mixes on Shakedown III. To cut a long story short you want a swimming pool for the 1st CD and lasers for the 2nd!”
CD 1 Poolside: this mix delivers a contemporary, deeper vibe with productions from Freemasons alter-ego, Pegasus, including their remix of London Grammar ‘Nightcall’, vocal collaborations with the likes of Katherine Ellis and Bailey Tzuke while Freemasons take it up a notch as they flex their songwriting muscles with new tracks, including, ‘Walk The Mile’, ‘Intoxicated’, ‘True Love Survivor’ and a new 2014 version of their hit ‘Rain Down Love’.
