Made some stems, replaced the drums and percs.....and a major re-arrange. Hope you like.

Change - Hold Tight (Pete Le Freq Refreq)

Originally did a rework of this about 12 years ago, for Sonny Fodera's label (yeah THAT Sonny Fodera). Decided it was time to have another pop. Replaced percussion and drums, tweaked the arrangement, added FX. and a little filtering. Hope you like.

Change - A Lover's Holiday (Pete Le Freq Refreq)

Got put on to this by my brother. New percs and drums, extensive re-arrangement....the usual! Hope you like!

Pete Le Freq - Shack Up!

Its another one I reworked in my jackin house days, now given a much cleaner make over. New drums percs and arrangement,  some FX. Hope you dig......

Herbie Hancock - Motormouth (Pete Le Freq Refreq)

Had this one on the go for about a week. Cut down, new percs, drums and FX. Hope you dig.

Gene Chandler - When You're Number One (Pete Le Freq Refreq)

Err, yeah this happened. New drums, percs, FX, and extended the arrangement, gave it a little BPM bump....hope you like.

Chic - Strike Up The Band (Pete Le Freq Refreq)

Yeah, this happened. Went down a bit of an 80s boogie rabbit hole.....and this was the result.

Kleeer - Close To You (Pete Le Freq Refreq)

Had a great OOFT dub of this from a while back, but id managed to lose it. So decided to make my own version. New drums and percs, cut out a lot of the verses, and concentrated on the wig outs. Hope you like.

Michael McDonald - Sweet Freedom (Pete Le Freq Jazzed Out Dub)

Posted the dub last night, but got asked by a few people to do a full vocal version. Hope you like.

Michael McDonald - Sweet Freedom (Pete Le Freq Refreq)

Another one of those "ooooh that could work" moments. Usual stuff, hope you like.

Herbie Hancock - Cant Hide Your Love (Pete Le Freq Refreq)

Bit of Quincy for you. Played around with he arrangement, added new drums and percs, and FX. Hope you like.

QJ - Betcha Wouldn't Hurt Me (Pete Le Freq Refreq)

So found this on a comp Id bought for something else....fired it up and....this happened.

The Emotions  - I Don't Wanna Lose Your Love (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!
