Yeah, this happened. Love a bit of jazz disco, me!

George Duke - I Want You For Myself (Pete Le Freq Refreq)

This happened. Started out as a refreq......got rid of the instrumentation...and the chorus.....so its vocal plus new everything else......

Pete Le Freq  - Playing A Game

Bit of funk jazz for you this morning. Sped up, new drums and percs. Hope you like.

The Crusaders - The Hustler (Pete Le Freq Refreq)

So discovered this was the source of one of my favourite house tracks, Life is Changing by Cricco Castelli. How he made that in 1997 I will never know, but heres my little tribute Refreq. New drums and percs, FX and arrangement. Bumped the speed up too.

Crusaders - My Lady (Pete's Tribute To Cricco Refreq)

Made this the other day.....new drums, percs and re-arranged. Hope you like.

Young And Co - I Like It (Pete Le Freq Refreq)

Was playing around with another Light of the World track, checked the rest of the album, found this. Slowed it a little, re-arranged parts and gave the drums a little oomph. Hope you like.

Light Of The World - Time (Pete Le Freq Refreq)

A week or so ago I started a Refreq list post, and this was suggested.
Plenty of half bar fill breaks, but it came out pretty well.
New drums, percs and. arrangement. Hope you like.

Light Of The World - I Shot The Sheriff (Pete Le Freq Refreq)

Heard this track from a World of Echoes discussion. Thought I would give it a whirl. New drums, arrangement, percs and FX. Hope you like.

Supertramp - Cannonball (Pete Le Freq Refreq)

Made this last week. Went down a storm at the Lofts in Newcastle.
New drums, percs, FX and arrangement. Hope you like.

LTD - Love Magic (Pete Le Freq Refreq)

If ever there was someone who the phrase “How does he find time to make that?” was about, serial editor and remixer Pete Le Freq is it. His reworks have been played on BBC Radio 6 regularly by Craig Charles, and DJs the world over, and the sheer number of tracks he produces have caused people to suggest he doesn't sleep much.

Pete started producing over 12 years ago, and made a bit of noise with his house label Llama Farm Recordings. He's been remixed by Jay-J, Eric Kupper and Kenny Summit, appeared on compilations with Joey Negro and LCD Soundsystem, and played alongside  the likes of Crazy P, Inland Knights, CagedBaby and a few others. 

Since discovering the things he was sampling were better than the things he was making, Pete found that retouching and reworking the originals gave him his producing mojo back, and soon after Alpaca Edits was born. 

The York based edits label has since become home to disco superstars such as Dr Packer, Chuggin Edits, and Mannix. He’s been resident DJ at Sotano in York for the last 7 years, and this has fuelled his productions to greater heights. He’s known for playing 5 hour sets that incorporate both his new productions and others versions of serious disco action.

2019 has seen Pete get a vinyl release alongside the likes of Fingerman, Al Kent and Sleazy McQueen on Samosa Recordings, produce remixes for the likes of Hot Digits and Midnight Riot, as well as having 4 eps of his reworks on his own Alpaca Edits. He’s also debuted at Tramlines Festival in Sheffield, and made a return to rock the Toil Trees stage at Beatherder for the second year running. 

November saw him support Michael Gray and Fingerman at Distrikt in Leeds and Derek Kaye in York. The year ended with him beating the likes of Mousse T and Ray Mang in the Traxsource Nu-Disco Top 100 Artists of the year. 

Lockdown saw Pete go into rework overdrive, running a weekly Thursday night stream, as well as starting a regular show on Street Sounds Radio. He also worked with Ashley Slater of Freak Power on some original tracks.

2021 has seen the return of Pete’s That Needs An Edit nights in York, and will culminate in December with a guest slot from Shaka Loves You.
Roll on 2022!
