Freerange are very proud and excited to be kicking off the New Year with such a high quality release as this one. It's safe to say that Paris based musician, DJ and producer Jerome Caron is something of an enigma. With only two original productions and a mere handful of remixes released over the past 5 or so years, he's not exactly prolific. But what Jerome might lack in quantity, he more than makes up for in quality which is why both Moustache and Untitled have become established classics with many of the top DJ's leading to re-releases on NRK and here on Freerange.

While NRK opted to pick up the retro disco tinged Moustache, we've gone for the super-deep house epic entitled Untitled. For many DJ's (including Dave 'Solid Groove' Taylor, Alix Alvarez and our own Jimpster) this track is up there in their all time top 10 house tracks. An absolute stalwart in their DJ sets and something of a criminally underrated stone cold classic that so many missed out on when it originally appeared on small French indi label Project Recordings. So that's why we thought it a good idea to re-release, with absolutely top drawer remixes to get this heavy heavy track the attention it so deserves.

In it's original form Untitled is simply one of those magic productions that sounds totally out there in a league of it's own with beautiful Rhodes chords, hooky synth stab and the funkiest, most rolling groove you've ever heard. Freaky Detroit style keys and lush strings all help keep the interest but never detract from the stripped back drums and bass underpinning the whole thing.

Such a strong track is not easy to improve with a remix so we thought we'd better get someone in who we could trust to step up and add their own angle and compliment the package. Kerri Chandler was a first choice, and of course, he totally kills it! Concentrating on reworking the Rhodes chords into an alternative pattern, the king of NY house has delivered an awesome classic sounding Chandleresque remix that's stronger than Jeff Capes on Angel Dust! In addition to Kerri's Bigga Mix, we also have a limited, digital only treat in the form of Kerri's Digital Soul Mix. This is where the man goes proper soulful on our ass' working the original into an 8 minute epic NJ garage version complete with joyous vocal hook and soloing galore.

This is a big release for us so please show your support and respect by giving us a short quote which is all we ask for in return for this quality music. Supporters of this release can look forward to a second pair of remixes that you definitely don't want to miss out on. Stefan Goldmann and Solid Groove have both ripped up the rulebook and delivered super strong mixes that will be freaking dancefloors everywhere on its release.
