Comments on: The Freerange DJs ‘Back To The Old Jack’ [APEM017] http://apemusic.benandlex.co.uk/the-freerange-djs-back-to-the-old-jack-apem018/ Ape Music was established in 2006, by Ben & Lex, from the ashes of the successful south west club night of the same name. After nearly ten years as residents at 'Beatz & Bobz' (one of the country's longest running breaks nights) and at 'Ape' and having had many releases on other labels such as Functional, Silo, Drum & Breaks and Wut Eva to name a few. Ben & Lex are no strangers to what makes a good tune so they decided it was time for them to get out there and start their own label.

The original has a hint of an old skool flavour and stands up well as peak-time, booty shakin fun, whereas remixes from Dom Almond, Eshericks and Quadrat Beat offer tougher, breakier alternatives. Meanwhile, Jinx and Rektchordz add a dubbed-out feel to the release with their versions, whilst holding on to the original’s deep low end. An exciting bundle, like a night on the town with some of breakbeat’s finest. Thisisbreaks.com – Single of the week

Calling all booty shakers!

It’s not been long since Cornish DJs, =AVE=, Olly G & Hi-Fly stumbled on to the horizon as the Freerangers, yet they’ve already made a big impression. Their latest and greatest, showcases their fidgety broken beats and sub-heavy wonk perfectly. Rammed with old skool scratches, trumpets, chunky ass drums and a think as muck bottom end, ‘Old Jack’ will not leave your set for a while.

5/5

Freerange DJs
Back To The Old Jack (Ape)

West Country bods Ben & Lex are real troopers, and here they bring relative newbies The Freerange DJs onto their Ape label for a scratchadelic, jackin’ beast that is, indeed, riddled with old skool samples (Space Invaders, a neighing horse etc). The growling, scrunched up b-line powers it home, while Quadrat Beat expands on the bassline to take it into proper acid territory. Dom Almond goes a bit mental, and then exciting newcomer Eshericks really raves it up for the pick of the bunch, with peaking synths, wiggly 303s and true hardcore sensibilities.

4.5/5
